    M setting

    I guess this is not just for D300 but other nikon models too. When we set to M setting, we control the aperture and speed. However if we leave the ISO on auto, will it still set to auto even if we set the ISO to 100 manually?

    Tele extension tube on nikon 50 mm f1.8

    I like my 50 mm lens but when I need to zoom, it is short. So I switch to my 70-300 but the f stop starts at 4. Can I add an tele extension tube to my 50 mm? What f stop will I get? If I can achieve 100 mm at f2.8 wight this combination that would be great. Any guys here tried it?

    What is next?

    For Nikon, 300/300s is the highest model for DX models. Have you guys think of upgrading to FX? Please share your thought on why you plan to switch and why not. I am perfectly happy with my d300 and if I do 'upgrade' the possible reasons now could be: 1) i will get true 10 mm wide angle and...

    Question on lens

    I owned 2 lenses. Afs 18-105 & afs 70-300 VR. F stop is 3.5 biggest. 18 mm seem adequate for me but 11 mm would be ideal for tight indoor apace. I shoot almost anything and am toying with the idea of switching my 18-105 with a 17-50 mm lens with a lower f stop of 2.8. Would the increase in...

    Novice question on f stop

    If standard kit lens has f stop of 3.5. Would 3rd party 'prime' lens with f 2.8 makes any difference? Should one consider any thing below f 2?

    Extension tube

    I am using D300 and AFS 70-300 mm VR lens. Sometimes, I feel just a bit 'short' and wish it was 500 mm. I read the kenko 1.4 extension tube is good. Anyone has experience and wish to share or any other suggestion?

    Cleaning of the sensor

    I guess my question is not just limited to D300 but most DSLR cameras. I noticed there were a few small spots appearing on my pictures. I look through the lens at the open bright sky and saw them. I changed another lens and have the same spots. I therefore think it is on the sensor. There were...
