What is the largest print you've tried to have made using a D300 photo? I'm very curious! Right now I have two 10×15 inch photos being printed up. But I've wondered if anyone has tried to go larger, and if so, how'd they turn out?

@Anco At the price, I don't think you can go wrong on a AF 50mm f/1.8 D lens for a D610. You can pick them up used for about $100.00 or even less sometimes. :)

@Gorf the first shot is at 340mm I believe. And the second shot is at 400mm. :)

No it hasn't seemed bad for auto focus! I took a couple flower shots today at around 350mm and will post them here for you. ;)

I haven't taken any great shots yet. But @Sambr has taken a lot of great animal shots. I have heard that my lens softens around 400mm area. But I heard it is great up to the 350mm range or may be a bit more. I haven't been able to go searching for critters to shoot. Lol :)

Well my friends, I'm now needing a double shoulder harness! Preferably something like the black rapid quality! I do have a great trade item if someone is interested! I have a double spider holster setup! It's great for the pro doing people shoots! But I'm more into the critters big and small...

Well as I was waiting on my appointment a lady was drawn to my Nikon! Yes the D300 with a Nikkor AF 80-400mm f/4.5-5.6 ed d lens on it is one sexy beast! Lol :) Anyway she was very interested in what photos I took and such. Well I only had two of my photos on my galaxy note 3 phone. My favorite...

I took a few shots of Stevie dressed up a bit! I tried a couple different settings just for the fun of it! Also I only increased the contrast just sightly on all of the shots, with no other alterations at all! :D

@Blacktop Yes what lens will be on your's the first time you use it buddy? :D

I've seen a lot of posts about tripods and ball heads, and I also see a ton of posts looking for something better than what they already have! Yes that includes me! Lol ;) So I was thinking how both tripods and ballheads are very important to those of us who use them. So I started this thread...

I've just come a crossed the gimble heads thinking about my 80-400mm lens! For quick shots that are impossible on a ball head. I'm not the steadiest hand, and I'd like to take better critter shots, like squirls and such. So this type of head intrigued my curiosity! :) I'd appreciate and info...

That's cool, but I'm still too broke to be in the market for the D700 yet. Besides that, I'm buying @Blacktop (Pete's) Stevie Nicks D300 on the 25th. Lol So I'll have a matched pair of D300's right away, and I'll try to add the D700 to the mix in the next year or so. :)

Here are some random shots using my nikkor af 28mm d lens! :) Must have been a Pepsi emergency! Pepsi stat nurse! Lol :) Home looks over grown right now! Lol :)

Well it looks like I'm winning this battle against the dreaded nicotine! With 2 and 1/2 hours left to go to complete my third day smoke-free, it looks like nicotine is losing it's grip on me! Woohoo!:D Just over 3 days ago I would have swore that I couldn't quit this bad habit, and look at me...

I will likely try to air out the house once it cools off outside. :) But I don't have any money Lawrence. :( So I'm sorry, I just don't have any money to put in a jar to show you buddy. I do have 4 cartons of cigarettes and a few packs I wish I could get my money back for, but I'm broke my...

Well as I'm writing it's been 2 hours and 15 minutes without a cigarette! I estimate that eguals at least nine cigarettes I haven't smoked! :) But it's hard going, and I have to consciously watch that I don't lite up without thinking about it. I don't know of anything I can do that will help...

OK! I quit smoking with the incouragement of my friends at 7:30 pm eastern time here in the US! The first Ten minutes was done with me constantly glancing over at the clock telling myself "You can do this" over and over like a mantra! The second ten minutes went by painlessly, and I can't...

Ok , to cut right to the point. I'm a smoker and have been for decades, but my wife has quit due to her illness. So I'm stuck worrying about my smoking, not wanting to make it hard on her to be around me and her cravings to start back up herself. So I'm looking into the vapor type things and was...

I've been thinking of doing a small amount of the business end of photography. No not to make a lot of money really, but maybe to help fund my hobby a bit. I was thinking one of the ways to help fund it would be to write off new gear on my taxes. But I'm wanting to know what I'd need to do to...

Hey all! :D Does anybody have any recommendations for a strap that can be hooked to a blackrapid shoulder strap to support a lens? I have a temporary strap, but I need something made for this purpose that works better. If I have to, I might be able to make something to fill the bill. But I'd...
