Dave's sister just wrote me and expressed how good it feels to know how much he meant to so many of us. There is a place we can go to write and or post a photo. You just go to Runyan Mortuary | Buena Vista CO, Fairplay CO funeral homes and look him up by his name. Most of us knew him by his user...

My friend Dave's (Rancher's) sister just wrote me using Dave's pm that he has passed away. She asks me as his friend to post this so you'll all know. I've only known him for a short time, but he was an awesome guy and a great nikonite! I shall miss him......... May god bless and care for his...

Hey everybody, do any of you carry two Nikon DSLRs? If so, is it often or just special occasions? I'm a multiple Nikon owner as you can see in my profile, and I'm trying to figure out uses for most if not all of them. Lol :D I plan to use my D300 as my main carry, due to it being my favorite...

Hi all! I need a battery grip for my new/used D300 when it gets here! I would love to be able to get a Nikon brand grip, and wondered if anyone had one they are interested in selling and for how much? I may have to settle for a cheaper grip, so if you have a good grip in great shape for the D300...

Well I'm trying to get a D300, and it will be my Christmas present from my wife! My first try, the bidding went up too high, and so I missed out on a practically new one with just under 7000 clicks and everything that came with it when it was new including the box. That was depressing! :( But I...

The more I read the more I realize that I need to keep an open mind. Lol I have been thinking up till now that one flash will be all I'll need. But after reading and seeing the work of others, I'm realizing that there may come times where that might not be true(understatement). Lol :D So I...

Well I'm in serious need of a camera bag or backpack, now that I have 3 Nikon's and a variety of lenses. I've been looking at Tamrac expedition series and at Kata pro lite series backpacks, since they seem to be made pretty good and I need it to hold at least 2 Nikon's. I don't want to have to...

Well I broke down and bought myself a D90! Lol I just couldn't resist after hearing all the talk about what a great workhorse of a camera it was! :D I already have a 70-300mm AF to put on it, and a battery grip that I hope works out for it! Lol :D I'm eagerly waiting for it and my battery grip...

Does anyone have any experience with the MEIKE LCD BATTERY GRIP FOR NIKON D80/ D90? I just bought one new for $30.00 on eBay. Does it work good for you? It says not to charge the battery it comes with using the original Nikon charger, but I didn't see a charger listed with the grip. I have to...

Hi all! I'm going to be looking for a Nikon brand battery grip for my new d90! How soon I can buy one will depend on the cost, since I just spent all my money on the D90! Lol :) Anybody have a good one they want to sell? Any advice welcome as always! Lol :D

Today I decided to give some attention to using my 18-55mm kit lens, since I've spent so much time using my 105mm. But when I put the kit lens on my D3100 and turned it on I got an error message telling me to turn the camera off then on again. So I did so, with no change. I tried removing the...

Hey everybody! After being here a while I've been seeing some of you that are in a similar condition to mine! I just don't have the money to buy the newer lenses! Well I started this thread to help us find out about lenses we have a chance of getting on a tight budget! I'll start it off by...

Hey all! :D Joining a forum can be a great experience, but sometimes it isn't! Now a helpful bit of advice I would offer is to introduce yourself in the intro forum(without asking questions right away)! Take a little time to fill out your profile, to help it be known that your not just a one...

This post is more about forums than photography, but I think it's relevant to our forum. Often you read the words "no offense, but" and someone trys to explain why their point of view is right and you are mistaken. And often it is spoken politely with a friendly attitude, with both parties...

What lens brands do you trust to be good quality? Due to a bad case of NAS my lens wants out weigh any possibility of my getting all the lenses I drool over! Lol So I'm often looking at less expensive brands out of curiosity and I have been afraid to give them a try due to them being a brand I'm...

I was given some great advice by one of my friends I admire, and though I was sure it was great advice I couldn't make sense of it. I thought about it off and on for days, and still couldn't understand it really. I was told that moving the camera closer or further away instead of trying to just...

Hey you smart people! I have the 105mm lens listed in my signature and it's 1:2 and I'm using it on my D3100. After seeing a post about 1:1 macro I got curious and found my 105mm isn't 1:1 . So I bought the extension tube PN-11 as an article I read said would make it 1:1. But when I went to use...

After posting my first shots, happy to show off my photos. People here gave me a lot of encouragement, understanding how proud you can be of your work! Because at one time or another they stood in the same position as I was in, just starting out and learning how to take a photo that isn't just...

How do you know photography is for you? Did you know it before you got a camera? Or was it after you got your first look at photos you shot? I like gadgets and things like that, I loved to idea of seeing what your shot would look like without waiting for it to be developed! Before I got my D3100...

OK, after talking to my friend Kodiak I was quickly convinced the D800 was not the best choice for me when I upgrade. I have very little in the way of a computer and for a D800 a good computer is a must. Plus the cost of a D800 is a real down side on my income level. So Kodiak recommended the...
