I'm hoping to be able to stretch to a 70-200mm f4 to complete my 3-lens mid-range zoom dream-team on my forthcoming D610/D620/D750. The purpose of the lens would be extra reach on landscape & event shots, also for wildlife. I understand the lens also works well with the 1.4 teleconvertor for...

Is there any advantage to joinging the Nikon Professional User Scheme?

@aroy Thanks for your advice. I will shortly be buying a D610 (with 2 card slots). I am waiting until the Photokina show in case a D620/D750 is announced. I am looking for a USB3 card reader, perhaps something like this: Kingston Technology USB 3.0 Media Reader: Amazon.co.uk: Computers &...

@nickt Thanks for your helpful reply. I'm pleased to be able to find a Nikon accessory to continue to use my camera if my eyesight gets worse. For other members viewing this, a paste from NikonUSA:

Hi I wear glasses for distance vision, such as driving & lately, TV. My right "viewfinder" eye has the worst sight. My eyesight is not getting worse quickly, but I have to assume it will gradually get worse over time. I of course have regular check-ups. I do not wear glasses to use a camera...

I will want to photograph tropical fish both close-up & macro. They will be in their regular tank, or perhaps a small display tank. As I would be photographing through glass, would a CPL filter be desirable? With room lights off & close to the glass, I don't assume there will be reflections...

I'm trying to tie down my shopping list. With a 24mp FX sensor, what size storage card do others use?

@nzswift Thanks for your reply. I remember seeing the ratio bar somewhere, maybe in a video. That looked very simple to use. So it appears that I would have a little more control with the R1C1 kit over the R1 kit. As far as I can tell, if I bought the R1 kit initially, I could in the future add...

I was wondering whether any members used monitor calibration. I was thinking about this after a poster recently said that he had adjusted the colour to suit the item that he was holding in his hand. If his monitor is calbrated incorrectly, then this would be displayed only to suit his monitor...

@bub307 You may like to tell the guys what type of flash photography you will be doing. It may help when they to advise you.

I understand that the D610 has a flash sync of 1/200. Please could someone explain whether that should concern me? Intended purchase, D610 + Speedlight R1 kit. Main flash usage, indoor & outdoor close-up & macro shots.

I have a regular issue after editing a post. After saving, the post disappears, but returns again after I refresh the page. It looks to be that pressing the "Save" button does not refresh. Using Win 7 & Firefox.

With non-pro usage, is a protector needed for the rear LCD screen? Does it scratch easily?

@Charlie I would like to store images locally, but maybe a backup to cloud? I'm not sure how the Adobe system works & also can't seem to find out. :confused:

@Roy1961 You may well have a nasty lurking there. Uninstall Avast & reboot Download & install Malwarebytes from here: https://www.malwarebytes.org/mwb-download/ Allow Malwarebytes to update itself & then run a scan Let Malwarebytes zap anything it finds & reboot Download Adwcleaner from here...

@traceyjj How do you get that colouring?

Do any members use Nikon Image space? I already have a Microsoft Onedrive account, I'll also shortly be signing up with the Adobe Photo Cloud LR + PS offer, which I assume comes with some sort if integrated storage. Which facility would most tightly integrate with LR/PS post processing, image...

@Marcel I will pay attention to the size, thanks. Horoscope Fish bearing in mind that I live on a small island in the middle of the Irish sea, my only realistic sources are mail order from the UK. US sources will be subject to high carriage charges & possible import duties. :(

Once I get my camera, any indoors will be done in our kitchen. I was browsing around Amazon for light boxes & found some light tents. They look very interesting, allowing a nice mini studio without much cost. Are there any specialist retailers that have a better choice of this sort of thing? I...
