    Hark 2020

    I had a number of images on my SD card since my hard drive was full. Yesterday I photographed more memorial benches and after deleting content from my computer, I transferred the photos. Some of these image were from the fall. The snow images were taken yesterday after we received a total of 8"...

    Nikon NY Repair Center

    I gave my 300mm f/4 PF absolutely every chance to perform, but in the end it just couldn't AF well. Most images missed focus while the rest were very soft. I even switched to my 1.4x TC - but no better with that. So today I went out with my 300mm f/4 non-VR lens coupled with my 1.4x TC. This...

    File Naming

    When my D750 hit 9999 shutter actuations, I renamed the files to start with 10K. It saved the info and lists the file names correctly. It can be done with a D750, but I'm stumped as to why it wouldn't work for you. Maybe @nickt or @FredKingston who are more tech savvy can give you some...

    Nikon NY Repair Center

    Before I went out to do more testing, I changed the value of the AF tuning to +15. *sigh* That definitely didn't help. Below is a photo from that outing. It was overcast so not thrilled my ISO hit the max of 4000. Then yesterday I recalibrated the AF tuning and landed on +7 but haven't yet had...

    Nikon NY Repair Center

    One of the eagle images where the weeds blew across in front of my lens (sooc unedited jpeg resized for the forum). Edited the RAW file but not enough detail in the eagle due to the weeds. Would have been a comical image though. ;)

    Nikon NY Repair Center

    Honestly I'm not ready to send my lens to Nikon just yet. Having sent my D600 back 3x for the oil spot problem (and wound up getting a refund for the body), sending in a lens for a problem that was repaired but came back with a huge dust bunny inside the rear element causing the lens to go back...

    Nikon NY Repair Center

    Has anyone used the Nikon repair center in New York within the past few months? My 300mm f/4 PF has an AF problem as well as a VR issue and needs to be assessed/repaired. In the meantime, I've been using my 300mm f/4 non-VR lens, but it too is having AF issues (AF is loud/grinding and sometimes...
