I've always been a fan and avid user of hardware KVM sharing solutions, but also come across hybrid hardware/software solutions for KVM sharing in business/corporate environments. However, with all these solutions, sharing of files or copying information across multiple systems is next to...

Just popped on here and got a notification to let me know I've got yet another achievement :) That means I've been stalking these forums for a year now!! WOW - doesn't time fly when you're having fun. I remember I came here had a nosey around, joined and asked some questions before getting...

Afternoon all, Just to ask, if any of you 55-200mm VR users have noticed how noisy your lens is when focusing? I was using it the other day in the silence of my house (rare thing), and couldn't help but notice just how noisy it was. I appreciate it has a motor in it, but even then, seemed more...

It appears more and more people are turning to the free advert sites (Craiglist, Gumtree, etc) to get some business for their new found photography love! Can't knock them for trying though :P LEGGINGS MODEL WANTED in Birmingham | General Jobs | Gumtree.com

Pope Benedict is retiring before he gets thrown down a reactor shaft by Darth Vader, like his brother Emperor Palpatine was :) (Disclaimer - no offence intended to those that take offence!)

For all those D5100 owners who don't have the reference manual (which is bigger and better than the user manual), here you go: Nikon D5100 Reference Manual (~20MB) pdf file

Was just reading a few posts on here and something hit me which I'm gonna put to a poll (if I can get it to work). In terms of our beloved hobby here on Nikonites, the results of all our zooms, focusing, lighting, etc etc, what is the end result: A photograph (or photo) An image A picture (or...

JDEG - have noticed on a few different threads this morning when I try to navigate between pages, or even 'quick reply', Chrome throws up this error at me; This one was thrown up trying to go from page 2 of the thread to page 1; http://nikonites.com/computers-software/10690-i-need-some-help.html

As some of you know from some other posts, I'm hoping to pick up a 28mm f/1.8G early March, as I think it'll compliment my current lens line up quite well. It was a tough choice as I was contemplating the 35mm f/1.8G for a long time, and prices had just come down to £~145 (plus £20 cashback...

Need a spare part for your beloved Nikon kit? Have a look direct from Nikon here: Nikon Store - Welcome Course, there may be cheaper options online or elsewhere, just useful to see Nikon doing spares too :)

OK, I know the concept has probably been done before so nothing new, but I just wanted to have a bit of fun and see what I could come up with. The tagline with this was/is "The Milky Way as seen from the surface of Mars" EXIF data; Body: D5100 Lens: 18-55mm DX VR ISO: 800 Focal length: 55mm...

Thought this might be of use to someone. Lens Specifications and Measurements It lists a whole host of specs and measurements for the given lens (you can compare two lenses at a time). What was most useful to me was the aperture info - what the aperture is for any given focal length. Most...

Never given it much thought until recently. The UK uses PAL, whereas places like the USA use NTSC. With today's PC monitors and HD TVs, does it really matter which we chose, as they all play both formats? I ask because I recorded a very small video of my son's nativity, and when I got home...

Hoping to maybe pick up this old lens for <$75, but just wondering what it might be like coupled with my D5100. I understand, it'll be manual all the way, no metering either, and can only be used in M mode on the camera. Anyone have any views on this lens?

Just noticed the number of sticky's in the D5100 forum increase. Curious as to whether the 'D5100 vs xxxxx' stickies are actually worthy of being made sticky there, and could they not be more suitably placed in a 'Sticky' sub category, where other comparison threads could be moved to as well...

Been looking at possibly getting the SB-700 for my camera, as I often find myself needing to bounce light off (eg. off the ceiling) and my SB-400 not being able to do so when held in portrait (though I don't think that's the only reason to upgrade it!!) a) should I keep the SB-400, or flog it...
