"Kodachrome You give us those nice bright colors You give us the greens of summers Makes you think all the world's a sunny day, oh yeah! I got a Nikon camera I love to take a photograph So Mama, don't take my Kodachrome away" Paul Simon For those photographers who were clicking away...

We still photographers spend a great deal of time discussing our lighting requirements but we're actually quite simplistic when compared to the motion picture industry. I was recently invited to look at a lighting collection owned by a former Hollywood director. The collection is stored in his...

While this subject has been covered in a number of threads, reading the last one prompted me into looking at my 20+ year old tripods and deciding a new one is in order. Decision made, I'm no longer a backpacker and do limited onsite jobs so weight isn't an issue, it's the Slik Pro 700 DX...

Some very nice photography and a question as to why some still consider China a backward country. Source

When I sold my brand X equipment during the return to Nikon I included individual lens cases in the sales. Most of my photographic endeavors are studio based and if I'm out for a quick jaunt I prefer grabbing an extra lens in a case rather than putting one in a pack and carting that around. I...

​Olympus Managers Involved in Fraud Aren’t Going to Jail

This place is offering Lightroom 5 for less than the upgrade price?

After reading endless reviews, comparisons and forum opinions (not here, I looked) I still can't decide between the two. I don't require the reach that much but would like it available. Everything I read, other than the nearly religious basis of some Canon/Nikon brand forum advocates, puts them...

I currently use the Nikon 18-105 as my general purpose lens, certainly no complaints about that lens for what it is, but on occasion do feel the need for additional reach. I dismissed the Nikon 70-300 and others as I have no desire to cart around a second lens for casual purposes. The Nikon...

Just a nod of thanks to Nikon for this lens. I took these from a distance of ~18", full focal length (105MM) under continuous lighting and was pleasantly surprised at its versatility and sharpness. ​

Any users here with positive or negative comments? I can't get my head around the price of Nikon flash offerings and from the reviews I've read this flash comes highly recommended.

I bought a package of 50 at Wallyworld for $2.97. They're premoistened (alcohol) and seem to do an excellent cleaning job. I've read that alcohol can leave a haze invisible to the human eye so I follow the cleaning job by light buffing with a microfiber cloth. As someone who appreciates...

This is for a D7000 application so I thought why not ask D7000 users and save myself some browsing time. Nikon AF-S DX Nikkor 35mm f/1.8G Are there any aftermarket lenses that compare to it with regard to quality and price?

Just ordered a D7000. I'm well experienced with digital DSLs but was wondering if the subject book simplified and condensed the normally voluminous and scattered owners manual descriptions of all features. Too much to hope for? Living in the sticks I don't have convenient access to a bookstore...

Newbie here seeking advice. The brand X camera I'm preparing to replace is dedicated to product photography, shoes and clothing, and some portrait work, ~25k exposures/yr. It has no video or full frame requirement, 100% manual settings under controlled/supplemented lighting. I'm seeking easy...
