I was changing lenses this evening and used the blower/brush before fixing the next lens on. In doing so it seems like a piece of the brush or some bits of dirt got onto the mirror. It isn't showing up on the pictures but looking through the viewfinder is terrible. Should I just take it in and...

As you can see, still finding my way around Photomatix. The colors were so gorgeous and vibrant but on the screen they still look a bit over cooked, even toned down. I will get there eventually :)

Hi everyone First of all, I've been away for a while and feel a bit bad about it. I have had the most incredible amount of help and support from you all over the last year and it's the second time life has thrown some curve balls and seen me 'vanish' for a few months. But I am back :) As...

Very beautiful Pat! I also prefer the natural look (sometimes there are exceptions to the extreme, but for nature shots I like natural and you've nailed it! :) ) Here's one of mine from this week. Still very much a newbie to HDR and still trying to iron out some creases in my processing.

Hark, I'm brand new to HDR (less than a week since I got my software) so you can hear from a newbie while you wait for the pro's :) It differs as subtly or as much as you want it to, depending on how you tweak the image within the HDR software, but the biggest noticeable difference is the...

I couldn't keep away from this little fellow. No idea what it was about this train, but I kept going back for another look :)

More museum stuff (I'll try not overdo it :) )

No need to apologize on my account! I was thinking that would make me a very nice birthday present. They do a day photography course too through their website so I will get my wish list out! Thank you for that info and the link :) I will make amends for derailing the thread by posting a...

Re: D90 pics P ​Playing with fire :)

I was in railway heaven last week, lol

A couple of mine from last week

I want to try out some HDR. I have watched plenty tutorials, downloaded the trial version of Photomatix Pro and played around with sample images to find my way around and get a feel for it and I am going to purchase the full version, so that's the software side taken care of for now. I know it...

I'm going away on a trip in 2 days. I have a remote shutter release, but bought a corded one for this trip and can't find how to get it to work :uncomfortableness: This is what is happening: Camera set to remote mode Remote cable plugged in Remote does activate autofocus and locks in on the...

I want to take some low light indoor show photos next month. Some of the scenes are going to be quite dark and I won't be able to use a flash. How high can I pump the ISO on a D90 before it starts to produce obvious noise? I will have a tripod with me so that will offer some stability and I...

I've been trawling the internet trying to see if this lens is compatible with the D90. I assumed it was but I can't find anything conclusive. Actually, it seems to be out of production now or otherwise not very readily available new. I just wondered if anyone has used one of these before and...
