    Rediscovering your photographic roots.

    I found the site OK, and as you suggested I did a search using the title and found an entry. However, I wasn't able to find downloadable "book" like a PDF. Note the attached image of the catalog. Here's a link: http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/168 Were you able to find a PDF version of the...

    Trouble Gripping the d7100

    Hi folks Hope is all is well with you. I fall in love with my d7100 more and more each day as I learn more about it. My problem is the camera body is small in my hands and the grip is way too small for my hands. I'm over 6 feet tall and have large hands. Walking around I find I'm gripping...

    Posting Some Images

    The d7100 is quite a camera and I've got a long way to go of course. But I'm finally beginning to feel a sense that I know how to find camera settings, adjustments, etc. Reading books on composition, mood, etc. I'm posting a few images and would like some feedback. As group we tend to provide...

    Extended Warranty w/ Accident Protection

    Anybody got a tip on a good dslr camera extended warranty policy w/ accident replacement? I've had my camera, which I bought new, for a little over a month. The setup w/ my 18-200mm f/3.5 zoom worked great this morning, but when I switched to my 35mm f2d, I got a "EFF" message. This lens has...

    Reassigning AE-L/AF-AF-L button to AF-ON

    I need your help understanding something. I reassigned AE-L/AF-L button to AF-ON according to the info on page 256 of the manual (see below). It's my understanding that you use AF-ON to focus, release the button to lock focus (even in AFC), and then re-compose. The problem is once I use AF-ON...

    Flickr v ? (Open for suggestions)

    I just spent the better part of an hour registering and uploading a few images on flickr. I could see the image thumbnails, could click it to look at the image. Then I proceeded to look at another link. Coming back, there were no images and I got the same page that suggested I upload something...

    Canon 70D

    I was fiddling around on the B&H web site and apparently managed to get myself on their email list. Yesterday I received this advert to pre-order the Canon 70D. Seems like a nice camera and all but they are asking a body only price of $1,199. Comparing spec's doesn't seem to be in same league...

    Lens Advice

    I need your advice on getting a FX style lens(es). I've been looking at getting a lens somewhere between 28⁰ and 55⁰ for general photos, plus a better aperture range than my 18-200mm. The other thing is my 24 year old son (currently a graduate student) and I have been doing stop motion...

    Nikkon "D" Type Lenses v "G" Type

    I got a general 18-200 lens for quick snaps and all around use, but I was looking at Nikkon "D" style lenses that allows setting my f-stops on the lens itself (an old dog runs back to what he knows :) ). Are many people using those with the d7000 of d7100 class or camera, or am I jumping up...

    Default AF Setting

    I've been working with my AF settings and the issue I keep having is the camera reverts back to factory default of AFA Auto, even when making minor adjustments. Reading through the manual, I would like to find a way to set a new default, such as AFA S, or AFS 9, but I prefer S due to the...

    Date/Time Stamp On Photo

    Just purchased a D7000 - seems like a really great camera. I've search this forum to find a way to switch on this function. Also read the manual. Every other digital camera I've used, including Nikon's, had this capability. I'm aware pic internal data contains date and time info, and the...
