After 4 years of use my Tamron 150-600 VC was jumping really badly when activated. I opened a ticket on their website and sent in my lens. They fixed the VC and cleaned the inside of the lens under warranty. Turnaround time in total was about 8 days and all parts and labor were covered. Very...

That's interesting that you and @aroy have mentioned issues with jumping views with VC on. I too am having a problem with my Tamron 150-600 (first gen). I've tried different bodies and cleaning contacts, etc. It only goes away when the VC is turned off. I'm in the process of trying to...

This is an interesting read about two photographers that took nearly the same picture of crashing waves on a lighthouse and ended up promoting the pictures on social media. This caused a finger pointing argument about stolen images. If you fancy yourself a sleuthing pixel peeper then this is...

The diversity of C@non seems to help their bottom line. If Nikon had a constant downward trend in profits would that prompt anyone to jump ship? Canon sees 2018 profit jumping to decade high on cost cuts, medical unit | One America News Network

Sorry for the ignorance here, our Flickr Group (Nikonites) has a contributor that posts pics that look like they should be viewed with 3D glasses. Is there a set of glasses I should wear to view them? The poster is wim hoppenbrouwers. I'm also curious who that is on our message board.

This sounds intriguing. https://www.coindesk.com/kodak-launching-cryptocurrency-photographers/

Thanks for checking up on me. We JUST got power back last night after several grueling days. The generator sure earned its keep at my house for another year. We missed the brunt of the blow and we consider ourselves very lucky, but it was still a Cat1 and our area was heavily flooded. My...

I'm seeing that Crashplan is leaving the "home" backup market and concentrating on small business. I'm currently with Crashplan and if I stayed with them during the transition then my fees would be about $70/month. That's more than I want to spend so I'm going to check if there are any other...

Be strong @RON... praying for you

A couple of months ago I bought and built a 3D printer. It's a fun little project for those that like that sort of thing. I need to learn how to create my own designs. In due time I'll dedicate some time to that. For now I'm just downloading from a 3D print community that have created and...

Sorry if this was previously posted. It's an interesting video about certain misunderstood aspects of photography. I was only able to watch the first 7 points. It's a LOOONG 45 minute video. Thought some of you would enjoy it. I found the info about the Nikon 70-200mm f2.8 focus breathing...

A slightly different view on Photoshop, I think it's well worth the time and effort to get proficient with it (even if it's a slow process). We all share a passion for photography and LR definitely can take our pics to another level. Photoshop can do all of this AND bring your creativity to a...

@carguy... they all look great. Would it be possible to ask the guy which company he went with to make the cards? This thread is a great idea so I thought about doing the same for my daughter's soccer team. I'm having some problems finding some card printers that can do smaller runs. If you...

Sorry if this has been posted. I'm sure it's made the rounds on social media but thought it was very relevant for this forum. It's about portrait work and how photographers looks at the subject when they are told he is an ex-con or a self-made millionaire or an alcoholic or a fisherman, etc...
