    Nikon 105mm Macro as a tele?

    Can any users comment on how good this lens performs at a distance? I know it's razor sharp for macro, is that consistant for landscapes also? Thanks!

    Troll control on Nikonites

    It is really disappointing to see member specific threads littered with troll droppings! Many members here take pride in their work and effort in their threads. It would be nice to see dedicated threads restored after the trolls have there way. These ill folks are obessed with negativity and...

    What does the 10 stand for on a lens barrel?

    This appears on some lens barrels, I've read it may be a life expectancy on some parts of the lens? Anyone know? Thanks!

    Aspect ratio and printing

    I've found this to be a bit annoying. Most of my older shots follow the standard digital format of 6x9 and as a photographer I always try to fill the frame. From that ratio, I need 8x12, 12x18, or 16x24 frames, mostly more expensive and harder to find than the old 8x10, 11x14, 16x20 ect. On top...

    A few Jugs

    Exporting from LR4

    I'm trying to export edited shots from LR4, but can't seem to figure out a format which doesn't either shrink it or expand it too much. When I export a 24mb file in jpeg, it reduces it to 50%. . Exporting in TIFF makes it huge at over 100mb. When I select original (thinking raw) it exports the...

    Pelican Cases

    My first Portrait Attempt

    Had a fun morning shooting my first portraits today. I had a few mistakes, but all in all I'm ok with the results. I discovered that I need a lighter background. Despite direct light on the background, his hair does not stand out as much as I would have liked. Will go for some lighter colors for...

    Venturing into Portraits

    I just picked up a JTL studio lighting kit (2 stands, umbrellas and 85w flourescent bulbs) and their heavy duty background support. Also picked up an inexpensive 6x9 background to start me off. I'm really a landscape guy but I figure investing $350 in studio gear is much smarter than my wife...

    Excellent Tripod Deal

    I just recieved the combo below from B&H. Very nice quality medium duty tripod and ball head at half price. Comes with a paded carrying bag, shoulder strap and a built in ring to attach a strap directly to the tripod. Everything is built very well and the ball head locks in place tightly which...

    Tamron AF 20-40mm

    Anyone have any experience with this lens? I saw a used one at my dealer for $250. Might be fun to mess around with until the 18mm 1.8 comes out.
