    Godox V860II-N TTL Flash

    What diffuser(s) are you using? I have used the small soft box, the small pop up fabric one that slips over the lens, a homemade "cone" and the AK. All seem to work well, but I prefer the cone style the most. The nice thing about the small fabric one is portability. I can slide it into the...

    Godox V860II-N TTL Flash

    I have the Godox tt685, which is very similar to the flash you are considering. I believe the main difference is the li-on battery of the 860 vs 4 AA batteries used in the 685. I use mine almost exclusively for macro work using an AK diffuser. I have been very happy with it's performance. The...

    Are Trumps tariffs affecting lens prices?

    Yep, $1050 has been it's regular, not on sale, price for years. The sale price they had it in March was the lowest price I've seen it. BTW, it's an excellent lens, IMO.

This is likely the reason that the 200-500 is listed in the chart as not AF compatible with this converter. This chart lists only DSLR cameras in exceptions, but I doubt the Z50ii will autofocus with...

    A Day With the Dock Dogs

    The Pup wanted to travel up to Conway yesterday and take pictures at the Dock Dogs competition. We got up early drove a couple hours and got there just as they were starting.

    For my .02 worth, I think that for only 2 months under your belt, you are doing very well. The more you practice, the better you will get.

    File size of images and videos

    I can't help with all of the questions, as I don't shoot video. 3. When you shoot in RAW, you get the full raw data from the sensor, so you get the full sized image. While I suppose they could allow you to use cropped image sizes, they may have decided that anyone wanting to shoot in RAW mode...

    Interchanging Lens

    All of the "D" series cameras, like D850, D7100 are DSLR bodies, and do not require an adapter to use. The newer "Z" bodies, such as the Z5, Z8 etc, will require the FTZ adapter.
