    Which is the most popular camera on this forum?

    Not sure it this was discussed before. Can admins access some statistics for the forum members? This information is stored somewhere, as most of us declare the camera(s) owned. It is just a question of getting it out. I'm just curious: which is the most commonly owned camera body among Nikonites?

    My old new lens

    My old new 1000 mm lens I bought this lens to take pictures of the 1999 total solar eclipse.

However...

    My new AF-S 85 mm f/1.8 G

    My new shiny AF-S 85 mm f/1.8 G lens arrived only yesterday. I bought it mainly for portrait work, but since it is such a good quality short telephoto, I decided to give it a try in urban photography. I went for a walk around Dundee and took some pictures. I didn't take any other lenses and...

    Sensor spots?

    I know what dust on sensor looks like, but I have recently discovered weird faint circles in the left-hand part of the sensor. They are hardly visible unless on a uniform background and only when contrast is increased. Here is a 100% crop with contrast turned to extreme to visualise them. I...

    EXIF info

    Sometimes when I hover my mouse over a picture I can see a little pop-up with EXIF info. However, sometimes it doesn't happen. I tried on the same pictures and sometimes I can see the EXIF and sometimes I cannot. Seems completely random. I'm using Mac OSX with the most recent Safari.

    Nikkor 10-24 or Tokina 11-16?

    I want to buy an ultra-wide lens (mostly for landscape photography) and I cannot decide between Nikkor 10-24 and Tokina 11-16. I have read loads of reviews, including opinions on this website. I know their advantages and disadvantages, but somehow I cannot make my mind up. Hence, I thought I'd...

    Subtle HDRs

    I'm one of those who are not particularly keen on some strong unnaturally looking HDR effects (though I can accept them if done for striking artistic effect). I have tried doing HDRs in the past without understanding the technique and got horrible results. During my last trip to Italy I have...

    Aperture problem in Nikkor 55-200 f/4-5.6 VR?

    I have just bought a Nikkor 55-200 f4-5.6 VR lens for my D7100 camera. I noticed that pictures taken with aperture fully open look quite underexposed. In a series of photos taken outdoors with the same exposure level but aperture varying from f4 to f11, those with f4, 4.5 and 5 were...
