Common Gallinule - Chandler, Arizona
D7200, 500mm, ISO 200, f/7.1, 1/800

Why post a Common Galinule with all of the much more exotic and harder to find birds being posted all the time?  Only because it was taken with a D7200...  (Best viewed against a darker background by clicking on the image)

Well it may be a common Gallinule down there, but up here to us this is an exotic foreign species :) It is a great shot EJ. Love the water! I will post a question about the D7200 in your D7200 thread.

Excellent image. Perfect exposure, nice pose reflection and nice green water.

Looks great but do you think your 'old' D7100 would have made the same kind of image, EJ?
What difference(s) do you see?

Sure, this image would have been similar but the deeper buffer could be very useful for someone that shoots the things you shoot.
See my review KK for the differences.  It starts on Page 11 and is linked in the D7200 thread:

Yes, EJ! I've read your excellent write-up.
Will upgrade to D7200 later since I like my current D7100 so much ... :-)
