Ahh, much better. It will still take much playing about to find out what the camera/lens combo will like/dislike but that is half of the fun. Good framing BTW, you have a good eye.

I am running four nikkor lenses at the moment. I have more respect for them then the camera. I use Nikkor AF-S VR 70-200, AF-S VR 24-120 as my two main workhorses and for macro and wide angle I use Nikkor AF 70-180 and AF 18-35. My camera is a Kodak and has a 1:1 Cmos and 14MP.

My favorite lens is the Nikkor AF 70-180 macro. It is so hard to use but when you get a good shot it is worth 1000 others. I really have to slow my breathing and heart rate to use it sometimes just to get the focus correct.
