That bug-smasher will out-perform the old Dakota in every way except load-carrying ability. Thanks for the kind words about the portrait. I don't get to use the fancy models that you have recently captured, so I try to make the best of the ones I encounter, even when they are not fully aware of my actions. No posing this time, just watched her in action and picked a good moment. The zoom lens surprised me. It captures a pretty fair portrait image.
