A warning, nature photography can be addictive. Next thing you know, you'll be getting up hours before dawn and driving to remote locations trying to get a shot of that special critter during the golden hour. You also run the risk of lusting after long lenses that are way beyond the ability of...

I was in college. When this came out photography was not an interest, although that developed just a few years later. Started with an Argus C-4 and blossomed with the acquisition of a used Practica and a Durst Enlarger. I started shooting some Kodachrome with the Practica, and really liked it.

The song, not the film. Hard to believe it's been that long since it came out. Of course, I was a wee bairn at the time.;) I fondly remember them both. Salute to Paul Simon.

In my area there is enough breeding area to completely populate the landscape regardless of what I do on my property.

I can't attest to the durability of the D850, and especially under the conditions you mention. If you go this route I would definitely invest in a very robust container that was hermetically sealed. Something like a Pelican case. The other option would be to go with something cheap enough you...

This seems to be the one tree and angle on that tree that I keep coming back to at this locaton. Nothing else seems to work for me there. I would probably have been very happy with the last photo posted, if I had gotten it a year ago. Now I am moderately happy with it. I guess as time goes on...

I would have brought our Thermacells, but I didn't foresee it as an issue. The mosquitos are just barely starting to show up right now and the temps were in the 50s, low 60s early this morning. I've not used a Thermacell for gnats, but the advertisements say they work well on them. They really...

The Pup and I decided to try going back to Boneyard beach this morning. Got up at 4:00 and drove well over an hour to find that the gate doesn't open at 6:00AM now, it is 1/2 hour before sunrise. It takes a good half hour to drive to the beach parking lot and walk the trail over to the beach and...

Welcome. I bought a Z5 last year. It's a great camera with a lot of capabilities. In fact, one of the down sides is there are so many different options it can be a bit daunting at first. A year later I am still discovering new to me things about the camera. The other down side is the lack of...

I ended up with the 24-70 F4 with my Z5. I had to make a price match deal with Best Buy to get it vs the 24-50, but ended up with a smoking deal at the time. I would much rather have had the 24-120, but I don't think it was available at the time, and nobody was selling it as a bundle deal. I...

I don't believe you can put a time stamp on the photo with the Z5, but the time and date are contained in the EXIF data that is contained in the file.

Welcome. What branch were you in? I'm a retired C-141 loadmaster from the AF Reserves.

I've had my Z5 for a year and I'm still running across surprises in the menus.

Ran across this video on the top long telephoto lenses under $2000. It mentions both the Sigma 150-600 and the Nikon 200-500. Guess which one came out as the number one overall in this class?

Another satisfied 200-500 here. It works quite well on my Z5 with the FTZ. Not quite as long as the 150-600, but it is a constant F5.6, and the price is comparable. I got mine last year on sale for about $1050. it seems to go on sale from time to time.

I see from your other post that you are interested in pictures of derelict buildings. While this might not require an extreme wide angle lens, I would think you would likely need at least 28mm full frame, which would be close to the 18mm which you had with your 18-55. I would suggest you see...

As stated before, don't put your phone in airplane mode as this will disable your wifi. The only thing I can add is to be careful about caps with the password. If they use the same or similar password as Snapbridge, I seem to remember it is all caps and had trouble when I didn't use caps. You...
