I bought one used XQD memory card from MPB, and this was the box it came in. LOL.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GCNm2ZPHPYU&t=1s Many dollars above what I can afford, but this looks like a winner for Nikon. Steve does a great job on this video, as he always does. For me, it's like watching a video on the latest Ferrari. :)

I found a great deal on a used 70-200 f/4 and was wondering if anyone here has experience with this lens. I am interested in a lighter/smaller lens than the 70-200 f/2.8. I'm especially interested in opinions on the AF of this lens. Gracias in advance for any input.

I gave Photo AI a quick test today. For those not familiar, it is a new product by Topaz that combines the capabilities of DeNoise, Sharpen and Gigapixel into one program. It is designed to automate the process through AI, but you can input your own settings. You can work on a RAW file in...

So I'm thinking of picking up a used copy of the 300mm f/4 pf. Why? I love my 500mm pf and it stays on one of my D500s permanently. I have a Tamron 100-400 on my other body that I carry with me most of the time now. But... The 300mm pf focuses very close, which would be nice for things like...

Out shooting with my 500mm PF yesterday and as I was about to get in the car and go home I saw that my lens hood was missing. This is a big cylinder of plastic! How did I not notice when it fell off??? I retraced my steps but never found it. ARGH! $50 bucks for an "open box" replacement that's...

So everyone knows it's "Twosday" today because of the date, 2-22-22. Here in good ol' wintery Colorado, it was 2 degrees in the morning, and we had two inches of snow overnight.

Some eagles to start 2022, even though they were taken last year. :)

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

I use Topaz Denoise and Sharpen AI and like them both. The company drives me a little crazy, though. They have an update available so frequently that it seems like almost every time I open the program there is a notice about a new version. I guess I should be glad that they are staying on top of...

I recently had some ERR messages on my D500 that I was pretty sure were due to communication problems between the lens and body. Time to clean the contacts. I used alcohol and a lint free cloth, didn't seem to get much crud off the contacts and mounting ring, and the problem persisted the next...

Happy Fourth to my fellow US citizens.

Just for fun, I calculated the cost of buying into a new system to jump on the mirrorless high performance bus. Looking at mirrorless bodies that I think could be equal to or better than my "obsolete" D500, then adding a telephoto zoom, a couple of extra batteries, and memory cards. Here's what...

I'll have a few leftover 2020 shots here in the first few posts.

This is what it looks like when your D500 shutter goes SPROING after almost 300,000 shutter actuations. :(

I feel badly. I told this fellow that by the looks of him he had eaten plenty already. I think I hurt his feelings...

I suddenly can only upload pictures with the ancient single photo at a time option from the dark ages of time. Javascript is enabled, as it always has been, but beginning a few days ago I can't get the regular picture file upload window. This is even if I choose the advanced option for a new...
