The following images were taken with a Nikon D5100 equipped with the Nikkor DX 18-55mm VR kit lens. The D5100 was set to its best quality Large Fine JPEG mode. White Balance and Active D-Lighting were set to their default Auto modes, while noise reduction was also left at the defaults. Vibration Reduction was enabled for all these handheld images.
