Interesting read (makes me more than a little grateful for my perfectly copy) - Nikon D800

My new MC-36 arrived today. The original plan was to use my inexpensive MC-DC2 that goes with my D7000 but of course it does not work on the D800, nor does the inexpensive wireless ML-L3 (go figure). So I ordered the fairly expensive ($179) 10-pin remote MC-36. And as I'm reading over the...

Does anyone know if the shutter would automatically be replaced if you had your mirror box assembly replaced? Not too long ago I reported to Nikon that my D7000 had oil spots on the OLPF and they replaced my entire mirror box rather than simply cleaning the filter (which it turns out is the...

Like I explained to my wife, I'm just a box collector and the contents are simply incidental...

Dang... Sony ups XQD write speeds to 168MB/s with new S Series memory cards | The Verge

If you ever needed a reason to buy the new CS6 Photoshop, the "content aware move tool" is it! I was playing around with the image I took a few weeks ago of my grand daughter at her dance class. I didn't like the arm that shows up in the far right side of the image. Via la! Gone! Pretty cool, huh?

Took this a few nights ago to test out the D800's resolution D800; 70-399mm; f5.6; ISO-100; 1/250 sec

I found this website this morning while reading a thread on a photo contest site. A "photographer" posted a beautiful photo of kids playing with a can that ultimately won the contest. Days later it was pointed out the photo was stolen. It's hard to imagine someone entering a contest with a...

Here's an example of the D800 auto-focus on a moving subject. 70-300mm; f-5.6; ISO-100; 1/800 sec ...I love this camera

I have several Nikon digital cameras and have never considered removing the plastic LCD cover, however, it might be nice to have it more usable with less glare than it currently has. Also, as was pointed out to me, on pg 17 of the Nikon D7000 users manual states that the plastic cover is only...

After reviewing the site, I think this where I should be posting images I'd like to share. This was taken in an old mining ghost town on the Colorado river called Picacho. D7000; 14-24mm; f/2.8; ISO-1250; 30 sec

I thought I'd share an image I took of the Venus transit last month. I used a wielding mask and held it in front of my lens. I'm not sure if this is where I'd want to post it or not but it was in very low light (due to the extremely dark glass). The largest dark spot is Venus, the other spots...

As much as I like my D800, I really wish the shutter wasn't so darn loud and clunky. Even on quiet mode the shutter is overtly loud. While my D7000 was having its mirror box replaced due to oil spots (big thanks to my local Nikon rep for comp'ing me for this work. I've read that Nikon officially...

Well, figured I'd throw my hat into the ring. This is a photo of my 2 1/2 yr old granddaughter at her dance class. Processed w/ Lightroom 4 and Silver Efex pro 2 D7000; Nikkor 85mm f/1.8G; ISO = 800, f-stop = 2, 1/200 sec

Just a quick FYI for those considering picking up a copy of the new 28mm f/1.8G lens, my recommendation is to run, not walk, to the nearest dealer and buy this lens. It's a repeat of the 85mm f/1.4G vs 85mm f/1.8G and the 50mm f/1.4G vs. 50mm f/1.8G, where the cheaper lens is head and shoulders...
