Photo Of The Day: “Don’t Worry Be Happy”

NikonD1ZoeC

I said to Baby Girl here…Hey, could you at least TRY to look happy for the photo? 🙂

This photo was taken with the Nikon D1, 2.65mp DSLR from 1999. The lens was the even older 35-70mm f/2.8 AF-D Nikkor. I was out testing some new equipment, but the best shot I got that day was from this old school classic.

Looking on some of my own postings, I could see where some may think I lean more towards Canon, but in fact, I’ve always swayed equally between the two giants, Canon and Nikon.

I’ve loved the D1 since I first read about it in 1999. Since then, I must’ve had about five of these bodies! Nuts!

No, it’s not going to beat your 36mp or 42mp cameras, I’m not that crazy. All I’m saying is I have a soft spot for the D1. It is a true digital Camera Legend and I love it! Maybe one day I’ll do a write-up on it. Hope you enjoy the extra hour this weekend. Happy Sunday!

  1. never mind old Bro…that shot is incredible. The 35 to 70D lens is an icon. Cannot picture a more beautiful background. Only think I wasn’t crazy about is the push/pull zoom. And as for the beautiful Zoe, looks like she’s getting to that age when it’s like ” OH Dad…come on!..! :-))
