Been giving thought to adding ND Filter(s) to my collection of accessories. I think I have room in one of my bags for one. :P Anyway - who uses one and which one do you like. Looking for recommendations that are "good and cheap" Well at least "OK and reasonably priced" See them down...

Suffering a little sticker shock at the prospect of a nice long lens. Upwards of a grand I fear to get one. Used maybe $700. I was reading a bit more about primes and began to wonder if maybe I could satisfy me lust for a nice long lens for hunting birds by getting a descent, older 300mm...

Looking to get a new external hard drive the old USB 2.0 / 300mb one I have is too small and too slow. My PC supports USB 3.0 so that is a no brainer. The old one will be relegated to service on my laptop which does not support USB 3.0 anyway. I have about 400 GB of images plus another 20 GB...

I did see Weddings & Sports photography as a subcategories but there are many other events the people photograph. Could there be consideration given to "Other Events" - or something to that effect, or even just Event Photography? I did a set on a open Market, and just went to a big fair (well...

Colours at the Market ~ Millarville Open Market Took these a week or so ago and I THOUGHT I had taken my new-to-me Tamron SP 20-40 F/2.7-3.5 to the Millarville Market, but the EXIF Data tells me that on that day I had my oldie Nikkor 28-80 original F60 Kit lens on. ANYway it gave me something...

Hello fellow Canucks. Ain't it great that our government is saving us from all that nasty spam. Too bad they can only penalize Canadian companies - my inbox gets full of spam from all over the world. ANYway - Nikon.CA sends me one of those "please give us consent to keep emailing you" so I...

I have two longer lenses that shoot up to 300mm. A Nikkor AF-S 55-300 DX VR that I bought with my D5100 two years ago, and a Sigma 100-300mm F4.5-6.7 AF-DL that I bought about 14 years ago with my F60. I used the Siggy on a trip to Scotland and at the time was very pleased with the...

When I saw the Lexar Pro 600X 64GB SDXC UHS card on sale at Amazon for $42 I jumped at it. These are usually over $100. The Lexar website has a MSRP of $169 From their website: "Lexar® Professional 600x SDHC™/SDXC™ UHS-I cards let you quickly capture and transfer high-quality photos and...

I know this would be exceedingly simplistic and basic information for most here, but for those new to DSLR's the histogram is something that we think should be useful but are not sure exactly what it is showing us. This youtube explains it very simply and quickly. I've read about these...

I'm thinking I'd like to try some of the effects I see from ND Filtered shots. I'd buy a cheapo system first to see if I like it - then if I need to consider upgrading to a more serious system later. I've watched a few video's on the variable ND circular filters - from several youtube reviews...

Just love a compliant model that does not complain about how many shots I take, and he works for crackers.

gotta type faster - take too long to compose - system logs me out - lose my post - Arrrg Anyway, .... Broke the piggy bank open and bought me a new D610. My dearly beloved bought me a new 60mm Nikkor Micro for my impending 60th birthday next week, a 60 for my 60th - nice. And I love...

Had some fun shooting the Easter Bunny and my baby grand daughter today. First time I've used my umbrella and light stand. Put the Metz 58 on the light stand shooting through the umbrella and the SB 700 as the master, used my Newton Bracket on my tripod and mounted the Fong Whale Tale on the SB...

Hello Nikonites; I've been a Nikon user for a couple of decades now. First serious camera was a Nikon F60, now shooting with a D5100. I'm an enthusiast, every now and then I muse about shooting pictures for money on the side, but not a serious business (I'm nearing retirement so just...
