When I transfer my images using View NX2 I get thumbnail previews that I can go through and choose what I keep and what I don't. When I Import from the camera using Lightroom I get a square placeholder that has the message "Image Preview Not Available". If I import the NEF images, with...

Now, before anyone gets the idea that I am raising the D90 above everything else out there, forget it. I am not. I just wanted to express how pleased I have been with my D90 and what a great camera I think it truly is. It's rather low mega pixel resolution, slow frame advance rate compared to...

I added three lenses to the database last night. I have added others several weeks ago. I don't see them there anywhere. How do I add to the database and then see that they are there? Or do you mods have to approve these posts?

Just downloaded and installed Chrome. Meh! Not thrilled. It is not as fast as Firefox at rendering pages . . . for me anyway. I did some settings adjustments according to some web search finds. No real change in browser speed. I don't mind the GUI but I see no need for it unless it is...

I noticed that some of the usernames in the legend look like they are hilighted or "glowing". What does this signify? I cannot find anywhere that explains all the different displays of usernames colors and such.

Finally. I caught the stupid script that keeps slowing me down here and sometimes locks me up. This thing takes forever sometime to finish loading. Today it caused this error message.

A few months ago, actually back during Thanksgiving, I posted some indoor family event "snap shots" of the casual style. Tonight I again had the request to shoot some more of a small group of family that were visiting. Same living room as before, same lighting. I tried harder this time to pay...

I need a new computer. I am still using this old Dell GX240 Windows XP machine that was an auction sale from Florida State. While it does internet stuff pretty good still, it just will not handle my photo editing with any real speed. What I plan to do is build me a photo editing box that...

My Nikon Nikkor AF 28-105mm "D" f/3.5 - 4.5 macro zoom arrived to day and I am thrilled beyond thrilled with this lens!! I had read several reviews of this lens, and even our ol' buddy Ken Rockwell's review, and expected a nice lens with a great result but this just completely busted my...

I have just been a little confused about how to make photo images display their absolute best when viewing on a computer/monitor. Monitors only display a maximum ppi (pixels per inch) of resolution. So how do you make the best of that? I hate waiting on a 15 megabyte image to download so I...

I have a brand new (Chinese made) 180 degree split prism focus screen that fits Nikon D80, D90, D200, D300 and possibly more. I bought it, installed it, tried it, didn't like it, removed it, wrapped it up and put it back in its little plastic case. This cost me about $25.00 shipped so it is a...

First off, if you have never tried this get ready for absolute frustration! Not seeing many birds today I decided to kill some time shooting some photos of bumblebees/wood boring bees in flight. While I plan to get this perfect these are not too bad. Some are soft as I think I need even more...

I am curious to know the answer to this. It could apply to just about any camera out there but, since I own and shoot a D90 I will ask it here. While in continuous frame advance mode, or burst mode, does the AF system continue to focus, or track, the subject? For example, when I press the...

I know, not another request for a special forum section. But look and see if this is viable. I am looking for a place to ask a technical question that could apply to just about any camera out there. A technical question that has absolutely nothing to do with the lens, the camera model or any...

I just wanted to acknowledge that I realize I have been a little less active here the past week. There are several reasons and none have to do with anyone or anything here on the forum. One, I have just been a little exhausted lately. A lot of stuff has been requiring my attention and time...

Got her done! This was my very first paid gig. I was hired to do the yearly team portraits for a local middle school girls soccer team. I have made some proof prints (drug store machines) and they look very good. That is likely what the parents are going to do anyway is get drug store prints...

This afternoon is the outdoor shoot of the girls soccer team. I am doing individual portraits and a team group shot. Weather should be nice but will be slightly overcast, which is in my favor, but I wanted to go for a specific look to the photos. I want that "sports trading card" look where...

My brother bought this and had it shipped from California to Alabama a couple years ago. He has restored it from ground up and painted it correct color for its year. It is also an almost identical copy of the Chief Brody police Blazer from Jaws, which was his intent. He took the photo and...

I see some blooming in the yard. I really liked these two shots.
