Your very lucky to live in such a photogenic beautiful place. Though people would say I live in a beautiful photogenic place too (Ireland )but we just see it as home. Great video as usual Super photos and all round entertainment. From a genuine experienced photographer thanks Ron
I've been enjoying all your videos Ron, and wanted to thank you for sharing what you can do with the D200! I also use one and have been really impressed with the 18-70 DX lens it came with as well. I hope to make it up to Alaska one day, your pictures are really helping in the meantime though!
Thank for watching and commenting. I used the 18-7o kit lens for all of the wedding photography I did with the D200. It served me well. My only problem was when the zoom function failed and I had to replace the lens. Guess what. I replaced it with another 18-70 (used) because it was a good lens and not expensive to buy.
Have been watching your wonderful presentations the past few days. The D200 topics caught my eye, as I bought one 3 years ago for $35, but never paid much attention to it until recently I started using it mainly because of the rendering of the CCD sensor. Was pleased to notice your also using the 35-80 D lens, as I also have one that came on a film Nikon D6006 I bought for $40 4 years ago. I've been using that excellent lens on my D750, and am very impressed with the results I get. You didn't mention, but the lens is called a "macro", but it is really more like a "close focus" lens; which really comes in handy on small subjects. I've also been to your area of Alaska, (as well as the rest of where you can go on all the paved roads!), so I have extra interest in what it is like to live there in the winter. Keep up the interesting posts! - Jon in Rochester, NY
Thank you for watching. The 35-80 lens came with my N70 film camera in the mid-90's. I am still surprised at the quality images I get with it. You are right about Alaska roads, there aren't that many compared to the size of the state, and on many of them, when you get more than 100 yds from them you are in true wilderness. Thanks again for watching and commenting.
Thank you so much for sharing your videos and photos with is my good sir. Truly love the landscape if Alaska. So wild and majestic. Question. Do you shoot in raw or Jpeg? or both?
Normally I shoot in Raw, but with this camera I've been shooting in both because I want to see what it does in camera with jpeg's. Glad you like my channel, thanks.
I've not had the opportunity to shoot with a D700 but, in my opinion, with condition being similar, they both would be very good cameras. The deciding factors, for me, would be price and whether I preferred a full frame camera or a crop sensor. Both formats have good and not so good qualities, it depends on the photographers shooting style I guess. Thanks for that question, it was a good one.
D700 has overall the edge in image quality and you get a better lens selection too. The D200 is cheaper though, but you may find yourself having to look at third party lenses more often than not. There's not that many DX primes, for example. Both are big and heavy. And both handle great and deliver very nice images.
That’s a lovely picture! Greetings from Malaysia.

Attractive print, Ron. (Proof, too, that we don't need gear with all latest the bells and whistles to take good photographs.) Best regards - Rab.
Thank you! It's more enjoyable too. At least I think it is.
Have to say the image @4:47 was my favourite, the colours are wonderful!
That was one of my favorites too. I love night photography here in Alaska, if only it wasn't so cold!
My favorites were the two with the vivid yellow buildings. Especially the second one with the impressive sky with white cloud streaks.
Thank you Jeffrey. Those clouds were unique, and pretty.
Beautiful photos and a wonderful conversation. Keep the videos coming...
Thank you so much!
Nice. Thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching Tony!

Your photos are amazing. What lens did you use, sir?
Thank you so much. The lens I used for most of these pictures was the Tokina 12mm-28mm f4.

I'm planning to get a gear and looking at D200 or the D700, which one should be best?

@@diegoscopia thanks fot that info. I never thought lens would be an issue for D200 I was thinking most nikon lens fits any nikon camera. Great info!.
You don’t have to limit a DX camera to DX lenses. You can use any FX lens on a DX camera with fantastic results.
@@jeffreysmith8633 thank you for that info
