One of the shots from last weekend

I seem to be stuck in the Out of Production/ Obsolete DSLR's end of the forums here, this is my fifth DSLR body. I acquired my D90 this spring for free with two lenses, only issue is the back glass is cracked, I have purchased a replacement part just need to find time to install. I wanted a D90...

Couple of shots Dan.

Time to finish up this story. I took the back panel off the parts camera to get at the button. I decided to try and replicate the original button by plastic resin casting it. First attempt at making a mold of the original button. After many castings they just were not good enough, so I made...

Couldn't find a better spot to ask this, so here it is. I am going on a trip of of lifetime for me end of April, I'll be going to Tokyo for 11 days to visit my son. Obviously great photo opportunity's. So here is my dilemma, take the D700 and 28-200 Tamron, Pentex manual 50 1:4 lenses. Pro's...

Few test shots with it, really liking the way the photo's look that it produces.

I have a D200 and love it but have been thinking lately I wanted to "Upgrade" to a D300s or maybe a D7000-7100. Went to my local camera store to see what they had. They had a D300, D7000, I checked them out and asked if they had a D700, they had two, one with a grip. The D700 is the camera I...

So here is where I'm at now. Thanks for the link STM, I had seen those before, but I'm not going to pay $60 just to get the button. So I have used the camera since this happened and of course it works fine unless I need to access the menu and if I do I need to use something like a toothpick to...

Since my last post here about getting this camera in December I have bought several more lenses and thoroughly enjoyed the camera. Now the sad part. A month ago I took it out in the wild so to speak for the first time, went to a large car show event. After walking around all day with it on a...

Hi all; Up until now my DSLR has been a Sony A58. So after one night of some side tracked watching Youtube videos' and coming across some current one's on the Nikon D200 I felt a strong wanting for one. Searching on the bay I wanted to pull the trigger on one, but looked at my local camera store...

Thanks everyone for the welcome. I know the D200 is ancient technology these days but I'm liking the size and features, plus hoping it will push me to learn more because of the limitations. Here is one of my first pics from it.

Hi all; Been a camera guy since the 60's as a kid and shooting film with Minolta gear. A few years ago I graduated from point and shoot digital cameras to my first DSLR, a Sony A58 and assorted used Minolta glass. But after getting to handle a full bodied Sony A77ii I knew I liked the size...
