Welcome to Nikonites! I love visiting your country - it has absolutely nothing to do with kaasstengels or bitterballen. If my wife says anything differently, don't believe her.
According to Thom Hogan, both Nikon USA and Canada have moved the D300s to the archive or retired list. With the rumors of an imminent Nikon announcement and earlier rumors of a D9300 body, could we finally see a D300 / D300s replacement?
Ran across an interesting link on Digital Camera World which had a brief description of why using higher bit depth while shooting RAW allows for wider range of tones in your images. I've linked to an illustration that shows the effect bit depth and compression have on Nikon raw files sizes for...
Working in a remote office for the beginning of the week. I kept looking at the building across the way over my laptop and distorted reflection of the building I was actually in. Towards the end of the day, I grabbed the V2 to capture this image.
Been traveling a lot for work and received a new, close-out V2 from Henry's on Saturday. Finally found an hour or so this afternoon to play around with it. Updated the firmware and mounted my 1 Nikkor 10-100mm f/4.0-5.6 VR. Took a couple shots in the house (my dog and a candle my wife had...
The family and I took in the Dodgers - Phillies game yesterday. We witnessed baseball history as Josh Beckett threw a no-hitter. I brought my V1 and 1 Nikkor 10-100mm f/4.0-5.6 VR lens. Here are a few images from the game.
I'm not familiar with the seller and it is via eBay, but SlickDeals has a link to the Sigma 150-500mm F/5-6.3 APO DG OS HSM Autofocus Lens (Canon or Nikon) for $725 and free shipping. Supposedly it is around $175 lower than advertised anywhere else.
I wound up buying a slightly used Tamron AF 28-300mm f/3.5-6.3 XR Di LD VC Aspherical Macro at a great price. Like the Nikon 18-200 I had with my D300, it won't get much use.
I visited the USS Arizona Memorial earlier this week. Prior to visiting I was warned about the bag restrictions: "NO...
We're getting ready to leave Oʻahu for Maui this morning. I will finish processing images when we get home next week-end, but I can highly recommend spending a day with Chris and Alex at Oʻahu Photography Tours. They took us to spots we would never have discovered on our own and were a blast. My...
I was playing around with a Tamron 28-300mm f/3.5-6.3 XR Di VC LD Aspherical IF Macro this morning trying to decide whether to buy it from an acquaintance. My wife had some of her favorite flowers, Alstroemeria, on the dining room table. I noticed the sunlight highlighting only a portion of the...
@WhiteLight and @xicaque: Are you doing any offsite methods? I use cloud as my offsite solution as described here. That is my fail-safe as I found myself inconsistent with rotating an external drive.
My awesome wife and I are going to Hawaii at the end of the month. Did I say how awesome she is? She just agreed to spend one of our days on an all-day photo tour. She really is awesome (but don't tell her so it doesn't go to her head). Anyway, the reason I'm posting is to share the incredibly...
I have the grip and wrist strap. Perfect combo iMHO.
