So my Sigma 40mm 1.4 is lovely. I really do love it. It's awesome in the daylight, even at 1.4 all the way up to wherever I wish to use it.. But it seems that at night, it doesn't like focusing on what I want it to. It'll wander around, grabbing what seems to be random things and choosing to...

Only Contra iii is better..:witless:

So I upgraded my camera awhile back and no longer need my 3rd party battery grip for my 5100. Anyone want it?

So as many of you may know by some of my pictures, I'm an avid backpacker. I hate bringing my gear with me on account of the extreme added weight, but when you can't shoot these things living near D.C, when you get the opportunity you take it:) On Friday morning, I'm leaving for a 4 day in the...

I use LR4 and I now need a program that will allow viewing of all the files on my card. The problem with importing into LR is that the pictures preview gets grainy when enlarged. I just want to be able to decipher which pictures are the best/in focus/sharpest so that I can then import them into...

I've searched around on our friend the Google and can't seem to find any real information or tutorial on using the stroboscopic mode on the D7000. Does anyone have experience with this? Ideally, would like to walk towards the camera and have "ghost" images show up, with the last one being crisp...

so this happens on my mac every blue moon. Clearing the cache seems to correct it, though this shouldn't have to be done as frequently as the page gives this error. Here displayed is two different browsers, both exibiting the same HTML weirdness.

I'm a lightroom kinda guy for my normal photography. I recently had a girl ask me to shoot some shots of her for a tattoo magazine, and I was working with sticks and rocks, literally as far as room/lighting/space/etc was concerned. I'm now trying to edit some of these photos and really just need...

I'm attending a renaissance festival this weekend and am excited for the jousting! I'm hoping to get even better pictures than a few years back. I was thinking that AF-C would be a good focus mode to be in. It depends where I'm sitting however. Last time I was dead on staring at the horse that...

This sounds so silly. I haven't touched my D7k in a few weeks and i think I just got rusty! I want to shoot with my remote with no timer delay. I have it set on 5 seconds (apparently), but can't figure out how to just set the camera to focus and take a picture as soon as I hit the remote shutter...

And it's awesome. I got it at a Ritz Camera going out of business sale locally for $30, so it was a steal either way. I never knew how good these filters were until I tried one. I can't tell that it's on the lens even if I blow things up to 120%! What a piece of glass! Anyway, I just had to rant...

I picked up one of these the other night. I've been shooting with it with the same, consistant results. Here's my 35 1.8. Settings were f/7.1, ISO 400, 1/200th shot in manual. Then, I slapped on my new 50 1.8D and metered on that same spot, to the tree on the right hand side. Same exact...

I have an opportunity to pick up a slightly used SB-600 for $170us. Should I do it? I'm really only looking to use off camera flash with my D7K for creative stuff and possibly some portrait work. I just want to know the limitations before buying. Should I buy this or look towards the SB-700...

I was at Target the other night with my lovely, and I was just shooting at 1.8 the whole time. I started noticing that at distance, the subject seems out of focus. Closer up, however, this doesn't happen as seen in the second picture. On the first picture of her at distance, I focused on her...

So I shot in a light rainstorm the other night. It was pretty cool. Every time beads of water would start forming, I wiped the camera off with a cloth and kept blasting away at things. I don't know why I didn't think, "rain+camera=bad", but the thing took it like a champ. I put it out to dry and...

Just curious how much extra weight it packs in. I know on my old 5100, I bought a third party one that weighted probably 28 grams or so.

The forum keeps logging me off every time I refresh the page to jump to another section. I have to log in constantly. Is there an issue going on?

I just invested in a d7k. I came from the 5100, which served it's purpose, but I really didn't get on with it like i thought I would. I'd honestly thought about buying the 7k before I pulled trigger on the 5100, but at the time, the price was too much. Now, having a better job, I can afford all...

I just left you for a D7000 today, we had some good times. You taught me a lot, and you gave me so much and asked little in return. And don't get me wrong, I'm grateful to have known you. It's just time for me to move on. I've been eyeing the 7000 for some time now behind your back, and the...

I'm torn between a Hoya HD and this Marumi Circular Polarizer at the moment. It's only got three reviews so far, but all are favorable on the Amazon. Just curious if I can get away with saving a few bucks on my CP, lol..
