    Focus Stacking camera

    I currently use a D7200 and would like to buy a low cost camera capable of Auto Focus Stacking. I believe the D850 is very capable but way out of my price range. Does anyone know if the Coolpix P950 is capable of this process. Thanks Brad

    Stepping up from D7200

    I'd lke to move up from the D7200 I currently own. I also have MANY lenses for the camera. If I could find a camera body that will accept these lenses then I would be pleased. I like Macro and general photography. All comments welcome. Brad

    Strange differences...

    Same camera (D7200), Same lens (Tamron 150-600) similar settings. Shot in the same place, the main difference being that the 2017 shot was originally RAW and a bit more wind outside. Any thoughts on why there would be such a huge difference in image? Hopefully I had all the lens settings the same!

    Tethering D7200 to a MacBook Pro

    Hello all. I'd like to have a go at tethering my D7200 to my newish MacBook Pro. Via a USB cable which I believe is 'USB CABLE UC-E6'? Please correct me if I'm wrong. I'm also in a bit of a quandary about which software to use, so that I can view the subject 'live' on the Mac. Do you have a set...

    Not sure about 'keeping settings'...

    I have a D7200. I also have a tremor in my hands and have difficulty using hand-held. I almost always use a tripod and the little remote device with a 2 second delay for shooting. My question to you all is...How do I keep that setting of 'Remote Control Mode', "2s Delayed remote" or even...

    Focus Issues...mine, not the cameras!

    Feel a bit silly with this post but I'm having issues with focus on my new D7200. I went to a zoo the other day and had a LOT of out-of-focus pics. I found it very hard to get a centre weighted focus point that stayed put! Admittedly I was shooting everything from snakes to birds but I would...

    Will Lenses be okay with D3200-D810?

    In a leap forward, I'm thinking of buying the D810 body to replace my D3200 body. But with 6 lenses, I'm wondering will they all fit the new 810? Any info gratefully received. Cheers! Brad

    Please indulge me for a moment...

    Being a relative newcomer to photography, I've absolutely resisted putting any photos of mine into competitions. Fear of ridicule? Fear of embarrassment? Fear of failure? Probably all three. But I finally took the plunge and submitted two digitals into my Camera Club's monthly comps. I...

    I'll offer this up for critique. A long Japanese style bridge at the lotus farm. A very dull day with heavy cloud.

    Can I change the metadata?

    My silly sister took a photo with her point and shoot, whilst on holiday. When I try to import this pic into iPhoto it shoots into January this year instead of October. She doesn't have the date set on her camera. Not important to her. So now I'm wondering how I can change the date of the pic...

    How do I photograph drops of water?

    You've probably all seen photos like these but I'm interested to know how people capture the moment that a drop of water (or a ball bearing or similar) hits a coloured pool of water. It creates a 'crown' effect (similar to below). I gather it has to be in a fairly tight macro situation but is...

    Restoring Menu settings...

    If I change my camera menu settings, am I able to save those settings? Or do I have to Erase Settings and Restore to original settings? Is this a problem? Cheers, Brad :) ​

    DigitalWorld Show in Melbourne Australia today. Nikon was clearly a winner!

    At the enormous DigitalWorld show in Melbourne, Australia today, Nikon held the prime location at the main entrance, giving away 'showbags' of info to thousands and thousands of visitors. It really was a fantastic display; completely hands-on with lots of advisors and helpers. They had a theatre...

    Requirements for shooting sport

    Thought I might like to try and shoot some sport. Aussie Rules football, soccer or whatever. But it will be an outdoor sport. We aren't allowed onto the ground in Australia, so it will be from the sidelines. Any thoughts on lenses, settings etc? Cheers, Brad :)
