    Wear a Hat!!!

    Hi, everyone. I just want to make point after getting back from a visit to my doctor this afternoon. I went in for my annual physical, and he asked if there was anything I'd noticed that seemed to be odd. I told him that I seemed to have an issue with a sore on the top of my head that...

    What I Don't Need (But Want Really Badly)

    I've an acquaintance who just added the D850 to his arsenal, and frequently pairs it with the Sigma Sport 500mm lens. What he is getting out of the combo is stunning. Now, I feel compelled to get either the camera, or a 500mm lens. With the current setup, he is seriously cropping the images...

    D500 Low-Battery Autofocus Issue

    I got out with both my D500 and D750 this evening and it was miserable, weather wise. 90+ degrees Fahrenheit and about 80-90 per-cent humidity. Out of the bag, both camera-lens combinations were fogged over, and I waited about 15 minutes to use the cameras. The D750 worked with no problem...

    Epson Stylus 1430

    Does anyone here now own or use, or have you previously owned or used an Epson Stylus 1430 printer? If so, what did you think about its performance in printing photos? I'd love to get a P600 or P800, but I just can't do it right now. The 1430 is about the most that I can afford right now...

    Sensor Pixel Density

    After looking at some photos from a D500 shooter, I began to think about the sensor pixel density of the camera. This lead to the question of how it compares to the Nikon cameras I own, have owned and would like to own. In calculating the pixel densities, I assume that DX sensors are all 16mm...

    Mac OS Sierra & Lightroom

    All, I've recently switched to the new Mac OS, Sierra, and I'm running the latest version 10.12.1. When I open Lightroom, I am losing every edit I ever made to my photos using Lightroom in the older Mac OS. Has anyone else experienced this? Any remedies that I might try? WM

    Storm Warning!!

    Well, Hermine's forecast track cone now includes here, at its western limit. While I don't want it to hit here, I refuse to wish it on anyone else. For now, it appears that the impact here will be minimal, but the track keeps shifting west, and it is now forecast to be just shy of a...

    D750m back to Nikon?

    I've really been working the D750 I purchased earlier this year lately, and I have noticed a trend; I'm getting a lot of photos that are back-focused. And the less available light, the worse the problem seems to be. I've calibrated my AF Fine tune and the camera consistently requires an AF...
