    Luisi's Best Photos

    I will be posting what I consider to be the best photos that I have taken since I got my Nikon D7000. Every photo posted to this thread will be taken with that camera unless I say otherwise in the post. Each of the photos posted here are either already part of my portfolio site on Coroflot.com...

    Portfolio Website

    Hey everyone...I haven't been active in a while because work has been very busy and I've been going through thousands of old photos and re-processing (and in some cases processing them for the first time - other than a default settings RAW to JPG conversion with View NX2) them with my new copy...

    50mm 1.8D or 50mm 1.8G with D7000

    I currently have the 1.8G lens and really like it, but Amazon has the 1.8D on sale right now for for $114 brand new. I am actually thinking of selling my 1.8G for more than that (seems that it's worth around $150 or so) and picking this up so that I can also reverse it and use it as a better...

    First flash

    So...at some point in the near future I would like to buy a flash to replace the D7000's pop-up. I have kind of narrowed it down to the SB-700 ($327) and the Yongnuo YN-565EX ($113). The features that I am struggling with are HSS and external power. I get HSS with the Nikon, but not with the...

    Silhouette Photos

    This morning, I set up a white bedsheet in front of a window facing the sun as a makeshift backdrop to try to take some silhouette photos of my kids. They are the three pictures currently in my gallery (Link). The idea was that I would give them to my wife for Valentine's day since she had...

    Next Purchase

    I currently have a D7000 with the kit lens (18-105mm with a broken mount) and an additional Nikon 50mm f1.8 lens. I received some amazon gift cards for Christmas and I'm looking for recommendations on what to buy next. I shoot RAW only and most of my pictures are of my kids (either playing...

    50mm Prime Lens Washed Out

    I took my D7000 and 50mm f/1.8 lens out for a hike in the Shenandoah National Park over the weekend and most of the pics that I took are washed out and seem over-exposed to me. I had to fix most of them in post. I mostly shot in aperture mode and let the camera calculate the shutter speed for a...

    Number of Filters Before Vignetting

    I just got this 50mm f/1.8G for my D7000 and I am looking to put on a 58mm NC filter, then I would like to step it up to 77mm for use with a graduated neutral density and/or circular polarizer (to match future lenses that I would like to get). Will I have any vignetting issues doing the NC...

    Lens and System Recommendations

    A couple of years ago, I bought a D7000 with the 18-105 kit lens. The camera and lens were great, but unfortunately the plastic lens mount broke on me. I may have made some mistakes in handling the lens when it was attached to the camera (instead of handling the camera body), but it was not...
