Just make sure you don't wind up with this other version of the 300mm. It is the Nikon 300mm f/4 AF ED. It IS a very sharp lens but is slow to focus. Plus it doesn't work with the Nikon TC's (although it's a budget-friendly lens for those who cannot afford the AF-S version). This is the one to...

Peter7100, yes the 1.4x ii works fine with the D7100. This chart comes from page 295 of the D7100 Owner's Manual.

Here is one from a couple years ago with that combo. This image has a great amount of detail.

Guess it's time to revive this thread. Back in the spring I purchased a couple of strip boxes. Unfortunately I chose the wrong size. :( Most likely will put them put for sale locally since shipping would take a hit. Adorama has the Glow 12" x 56" strip boxes on sale so I purchased two. Their...

One more bench photo for now. There is a Facebook group for people who have memorial benches for loved ones who passed. Someone took a photo of this bench when the ground was snow covered, but the name wasn't identified. So I went in search of identifying the bench. The clouds were really...

I had a number of images on my SD card since my hard drive was full. Yesterday I photographed more memorial benches and after deleting content from my computer, I transferred the photos. Some of these image were from the fall. The snow images were taken yesterday after we received a total of 8"...

I gave my 300mm f/4 PF absolutely every chance to perform, but in the end it just couldn't AF well. Most images missed focus while the rest were very soft. I even switched to my 1.4x TC - but no better with that. So today I went out with my 300mm f/4 non-VR lens coupled with my 1.4x TC. This...

Yep! You're good to go. :) Now @FredKingston can take a look at whatever he wanted to check out for you.

B&H has this Oben 4-way Macro Rail on sale today only for $74.95. I purchased one a few years ago - it's very smooth to adjust so no complaints. https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1130512-REG/oben_mfr4_5_macro_focusing_rail.html

When my D750 hit 9999 shutter actuations, I renamed the files to start with 10K. It saved the info and lists the file names correctly. It can be done with a D750, but I'm stumped as to why it wouldn't work for you. Maybe @nickt or @FredKingston who are more tech savvy can give you some...

And now I just found it @Whiskeyman https://fstoppers.com/news/nikon-going-release-two-new-dslr-cameras-instead-just-one-533214

Nikon finally released firmware updates for the D5, D850, and D500 to allow them to use CF cards. https://www.nikonrumors.co/nikon-d5-d850-d500-firmware-updates-released-add-cfexpress-card-support/

Before I went out to do more testing, I changed the value of the AF tuning to +15. *sigh* That definitely didn't help. Below is a photo from that outing. It was overcast so not thrilled my ISO hit the max of 4000. Then yesterday I recalibrated the AF tuning and landed on +7 but haven't yet had...

One of the eagle images where the weeds blew across in front of my lens (sooc unedited jpeg resized for the forum). Edited the RAW file but not enough detail in the eagle due to the weeds. Would have been a comical image though. ;)

Honestly I'm not ready to send my lens to Nikon just yet. Having sent my D600 back 3x for the oil spot problem (and wound up getting a refund for the body), sending in a lens for a problem that was repaired but came back with a huge dust bunny inside the rear element causing the lens to go back...

Weathered Which of these images best represents weathered? Anything old or new that shows signs of wear, loving or otherwise. Maybe a nice patina, maybe a worn edge, or just anything else that indicates anything other than Showroom Fresh.. Please vote for your choice of this week's Weekly...

Not much has been mentioned on our forum about the Tamron 70-210mm f/4 Di VC. It's on sale from B&H today only. With a sale price of $379 (for a constant f/4 aperture), it might be more affordable than the Nikon version especially during these trying times of COVID. Please be sure to search for...

Has anyone used the Nikon repair center in New York within the past few months? My 300mm f/4 PF has an AF problem as well as a VR issue and needs to be assessed/repaired. In the meantime, I've been using my 300mm f/4 non-VR lens, but it too is having AF issues (AF is loud/grinding and sometimes...
