You never know what’s going to be around the corner, so aways be ready with sharp eyes, a fresh mind, a dose of curiostiy and versatile kit. Set your camera preferences in advance and bring a lens that will help you. The flexibility of a #telephoto or #zoomlens, such as the AF-S #NIKKOR24_120mm f/4G ED VR, can help here. For settings, photographer Lukasz Palka likes to shoot on Aperture-Priority along with Nikon’s custom ISO settings. He sets his minimum shutter speed to 1/250 and the maximum ISO to 3200. This way, he can focus on composition and timing and let the camera do everything else.

#Nikon100 With over 20 years’ experience using Nikon equipment and, in particular, the AF-S #NIKKOR300mm f/2.8G ED lens, British pro news photographer Nick Stern took his Nikon passion entierly to the next level by having the 300mm lens setting tattooed across his left arm. Nick comments, "I always wanted a tattoo to say something about my passion for photography and this is what I settled on. My only regret is that I didn't get the updated version of this lens with the Vibration Reduction feature tattooed . My left arm has always felt a little shaken without it!" #Nikon100Anniversary
