    Setup I've been dying for Nikon to make for over a decade - in-hand!

    Brother, hold up, WHAT? FTZ's aren't lens caps, why in all hell would you need more than one...???

    Which Camera is the Best for Photography?

    Lets hope it wasnt some AI thread to cobble together an incoherent article for a desperate, crappy blog trying to get hits on its ads.....

    TS being, TS, its not like native ones would reduce the overall profile vs just adapting old gold.

    Which Camera is the Best for Photography?

    Honestly, these days - can it charge via USB-C, can it do at LEAST 4k@60fps, and quite honestly is there IBIS or not. That's my humble, pro criteria. Technically this rules out all DSLRs, and for mixed photo/video work, mirrorless bodies are simply that much more convenient and bang-for-buck...

    D3100 for $125?

    Grats! Give it a year if you really dive in and push it to want something more, and then your path is 7200 or better.

    Looking for lens advice

    200-500, or Z glass in those ranges is the answer. That said, you want an ultrawide zoom or prime, and a monster telephoto and no matter how many excuses you try to make, you will come down to this solution (sometimes after having wasted lots of money with trial and error along the way). Once...

    Setup I've been dying for Nikon to make for over a decade - in-hand!

    True pancake with AF. 2.8 is fine. Lack of aperture ring is also fine. And a non-useless field of view of <30mm - FANTASTIC! And to boot, this thing can seriously close-focus for well-beyond my daily needs. And all of that strapped to a robust, and comparatively to even Fuji, still slim Zf body.

    It's GOOD to be back! Birding tele suggestions?

    I was on the fence for a mirrorless for video and most importantly - USB charging, and in 2018, Nikon fell flat on their face NOT offering the charging on the first gen of Z bodies. Fresh X-T3 had just that. Prior to that, I had and have Xpro1 with 27mm and 18mm/2, so I was generally familiar...

    It's GOOD to be back! Birding tele suggestions?

    Wealth or not, that a working pro can write off, I quite enjoy my mobile billboard from 2 years ago, that funny enough I got for not all much more than Z600mm -

    It's GOOD to be back! Birding tele suggestions?

    I also posed the question on Reddit, and, having backup F mounts, I'll probably go with a used 200-500 not to clip my own wings! Its cheaper, works damn-near as good from video comparisons I watched, and I shot raw from day one, so "softness" isn't an issue really.

    It's GOOD to be back! Birding tele suggestions?

    Hey all, after my 5 years of a Fuji stint, I'm finally back to this family with refurb Zf on its way, and I will more than likely re-shuffle my Fuji glass to get Nikon back on track for birds. What's the general consensus on tele glass these days? Simga/TamronG2 150-600? Lose extra 100mm for...

    The first "1000"

    So, decided to finally get around to collaging about 1000 of my first restaurant shoots for advertisement purposes, and at least 99.9% of these were made with my (now dusty, but still) trusty D600. Df got mixed in when I got it, but kept the work load predominantly to the 600 thanks to free...

    XT3 - Ranger, the rescued owl at Howard County Conservatory

    So 2 weekends ago or so, while waiting for the venue to get set up for the VR tour I was to shoot there, I noticed a flyer with owl info they had and one of the two was at that location. Got lucky got get up close and personal for a minute after my work was done to snap these. Edit- owL** for...

    Bit the bullet on X-T3

    My lust for, 4k/1080@120fps to possibly start vlogging and namely the lust for super-inconspicuous camera to just haul everywhere let me to go ahead and try the most proper Fuji experience rather than professionally unreliable X-Pro 1 I have and like for what it is. Z7 will never get a tiny...
