I was given the opportunity to "barrow" this lens from my friend. He still does not want to sell it since I've always been curious with this prime lens. It is small enough to cover group shots when mounted on a DX. On FX, it will be pretty wide for landscape purposes. So, I don't know if I...

I'm looking for a fast, portable and good quality photo printer that can make 4x6 and 5x7 prints. I'm not sure if anyone uses one for their business. I have a Xerox color laser printer at home but I don't like the images that comes out of it. Power requirement: 100 ~ 120 VAC Must be windows...

1. Go grab a pop-corn. This will be interesting. ::what::::what::::what:: 2. Background: So, about 7 months ago, I was too cheap to spend the money on a Nikon battery grip especially when it was just announced. It was an astronomical price then. So, like most of you do, we look for...

Based on Thom Hogan's post dated 17March, Quote:"So what's the relatively simple solution? Well, exactly what I asked for in the first place back in 2009: a D800h and a D800x. Wait just a second, we already have the D800x. It's called a D800E. Hmm. So if Nikon would take a lower megapixel...

I purchased a Nikon 300mm f4 back in December and due to the busy holidays and cold weather, it ended up being stuck in my camera bag. I haven't shot with it and tomorrow I would like to shoot a HS baseball game. So my question to those who have been shooting with longer lenses, do you...

Just wanted to share these pictures that I took 3/9/13 in Miurakaigan just south west of Tokyo. They are in full bloom already and they attract a lot of people. Can't blame them. Sakura with mustard and their yellow flowers bloomed in sequence. Very interesting combination. For your viewing...

I finally get the chance to compress the video. Vertical Horizon: Everything you need. Taken during their "Tribute to the troops" concert. D800e, 85mm f1.4 @ f1.4, 1/50, ISO 3200, Nikon ME-1 mic, monopod. HD 1080p converted to vimeo HD. I think the camera performed very well with this...

Taken recently during our trip to Nagano perfecture which was made even more popular during the 1998 winter Olympics. Matsumoto Castle is 1 of 4 remaining national treasure of Japan since it remains in its original form and was built before the 1700. D800E, Nikon 16-35mm f4 VRII @22mm, f8...

Some prefer to control everything such as aperture, shutter speed and ISO. During my visit to Tokyo Disneyland with the cold weather and wearing thick gloves, I didn't have time to experiment what ISO I was going to use. With the electrical parade only happening once that night, I had no time...

I must say that in this condition, most cameras will not work well. Under extreme near pitch black conditon, the camera was able to focus and take very good pictures with spot on AF accuracy. D800E, M mode, 1/60, f1.8, ISO 4000, no flash of course. I used a Sigma 85mm f1.4 HSM lens and shot...

I just wanted to start a thread for this lens which I happen to acquire recently. I don't know why I didn't get it much sooner but I'm glad I did. I'll be adding more images as I use it more often. Not really for macro work but close to it and for flower shots. Feel free to share your...

I just ordered the Nikon 105mm f2.8 VR macro lens. I would like to ask if anyone shoots macro and what kind of flash do you recommend i.e. ring flash, speed light with diffusers, etc. Thanks.

There are often times that I wanted to share some images but it doesn't apply to some of the categories here. Feel free to share your images taken with your D800/E here to consolidate them. It might be helpful if you can include the lens used. So let me start it by sharing an image. Flower...

I finally invested on a dedicated video head for my cameras. My Arca-swiss Z1 is arguably the best ballhead around but it doesn't work well when I shoot video. It was a little bit jittery whenever I pan from side to side. The Manfrotto 701HDV fluid video head appears to be a good economical...
