Catching up with 2 more weekly challenge photos.

Did I just get this one in under the wire? Entry #1 Kenosha light station

I wish I took Peter's photo so I could make it my favorite of the month too. :D

I am taking a guess that the shutter is sticking closed on the black images. Using the viewfinder, you are looking through the lens off the mirror in front of the shutter, so if it sticks closed the sensor sees nothing. Set to LiveView, apparently it can open the shutter and hold it open, but...

I used to watch Trevor's (astro backyard) videos regularly. In the early years he was using more basic gear but he leveled-up a lot over the years. I will politely say Trevor gets pretty geeky in his processing and I do a lot less. No darks or flats, I use Siril to stack and process mostly and...

Lisa, I wish there could be a simple answer for such a simple question. I do not own a telescope, but I have done some of the research. I simply use my Nikkor 70-200mm f/2.8 and Sigma 150-600mm C to do my DSO work (Deep Space Object). In a generic explanation, you need a T-adapter for Z-mount...

Reading the liveview section in my D750 manual, I'm hoping it is similar. You move the focus point around the screen with the D-pad, and pressing OK will center it. If you are in face-detect mode, it will try to find a face and move to that. I kind of suspect from your description that you...

Yes and no to varying degrees. On the current mirrorless Z-mount bodies, with the FTZ adapter they work but cannot autofocus. DSLR bodies: Check for the models that have the screw drive autofocus motor in them. This is basically the prosumer level bodies and better bodies. D850 D810 D7500...

We know who is hoarding contraband plastic straws. Congrats @Silversnapper

I've looked, KEH has 1 unit, but you would need to confirm the connecting cable. When new there were 2 cords included needed for most Nikon cameras. Your D7200 will use the small rectangular connector and not the round connector. Several ebay listings I see are only including 1 cable, and often...

Nikon made a solution but it's long out of production. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nikon_GP-1 Try to search the normal used gear retailers such as MPB or KEH for a GP-1.

I think it disappears when you turn off bracketing.

I looked up the online manuals for the Z7II and Z8. Z7II has about the same display options. Z8 has more display options and you can customize which modes you have available to scroll though with the DISP button. But a plain display with no icons or only a few limited icons in display is not...

"Insert head here"...

I don't know of making the view even more simple for Z5. I know the higher models have the extra display on top for showing all that data and maybe can turn it off in view mode. Personally I use the histogram view.

Welcome to Nikonites and back to photography!

Yes. And I do. But I started 20 years ago with Paint Shop Pro.

Thank-you! Bit ashamed to admit, but I have been making these night-day images for 20 years now. I pioneered the technique using a Coolpix 995 and learned new tricks and ways to smooth out the transition over time. I kind of needed to make a photo of the newest watch I had. :) This was the...

You may wonder, but that was the only angle. I needed to step back and use telephoto also to compress background some. Behind me busy highway with an unappealing bridge, right was neighborhood homes, left parking lot and supermarket plus gas station.

I'm searching for circles for the weekly challenge today and instead find a fiberglass bird. Infrared photos desaturated to B/W. My D600 is converted to 720nm IR.
