    What has disappointed you?

    Not looking for answers like 'your husband' or 'partner' ;), but what piece of photography equipment has not met your expectations. It could be a lens, body, flashlight, tripod, filter or anyting similiar. It doesn't need to be something that you necessary sold on as it could be something that...

    How many lenses do you own?

    A good friend of mine has just purchased his 36th lens :confused: and to make matter worse no Nikon, they are all Pentax :hurt:. I'm sure I read many years ago that the average hobbiest photographer owns about 3 lenses. I could understand a pro having many more, but 36! So many must be dust...

    Some size!

    So I was trying to take some pics in a small pond when all of a sudden, everything fled. The reason, Harvey having a drink. He appeared from nowhere and caused a mini tidal wave in the pond. His owner confirmed he does take some feeding, but he really was a wonderful placid sole. Harvey

    Why so many bad copies?

    I have been studying reviews on the following lenses for some time now - Nikon 200-500 Tamron 150-600 G2 Sigma 150-600 C It doesn't matter if your read reviews from professionals like say Steve Perry, who had to return his first TWO copies (that's really bad!) of the Nikon 200-500, or just...

    Crop v Full Frame, my own test

    Obviously this question has been debated to death on many forums, but I thought I would just share some results where I used four people to get their opinions. So the set up was my Full Frame Canon 5d2 with a Canon 17-40 lens v my Crop Nikon D7100 with a Tokina 11-16 lens. I used a tripod and...

    How hot is it where you are?

    There appears to be a lot coverage on our news channels of extreme temperatures in several parts of the Nothern Hemisphere. Here in Scotland we have had several glorious weeks now with the mercury reaching 29c or 84f in the last few days (the typical average for July is 18c or 64f). Now I know...

    Upload trial

    Further to the previous discusion on EXIF missing @hark @Marilynne @blackstar, I have tried a few different upload options including GIMP and nothing resulted in my EXIF appearing. I was wondering if @wev would you mind sharing what browers and resizing software you use when uploading, as your...

    Shutter count per photo trip

    Just curious how many actuations do you typically shoot when out with your D500 when using for BIF or Wildlife? I am already finding that with 10FPS in Continuous High , that I am already clocking up several hundred shots everytime I am out with the D500. I know this camera is rated for 200k...

    Wide Angle manual lenses recommendations

    Is there any older wide angle manual Nikon lenses worth buying (if they even exist)? By wide I am talking about 10mm to say 12mm for use on a crop body. I know there are several AF choices of more current lenses eg. Sigma 10-20 (older and newer versions) Tokina 11-16 (older and newer versions)...

    New Toy

    I am a bit late to the D500 party, but better late than never! My new toy arrived today after selling my all time favourite Canon lens and a Canon body to fund the purchase. I think that should make me a true Nikonite :cool:

    A sign of the times

    People sit at home watching updates on the pandemic whilst the bars remain quiet with full bottles waiting to burst open.

    A Yellow photo day

    Had some fun in the local park today searching for yellow subjects for the weekly challenge. We are still severely restricted on travel at the moment due to lockdown and covid. Therefore have to make with the best we can in the local vicinity.

    XQD card prices

    I am guessing that XQD cards cost a lot of money in other parts of the world and not just the UK. Can we expect to see these prices come down in time as I notice that CFexpress cards now seem to be the so called best/fastest/most robust card out there. For what you could spend on a CFexpress...

    What attracted you to Nikon?

    Just curious as to how and why people became Nikon users. I took a long time to get here having been with Zenith, Pentax and Minolta(all film cameras) prior to the arrival of digital. At that moment in time it was a toss up for me between Nikon and Canon, only choosing the latter due to a larger...
