I had a shoot on Thursday, and didn't even think about taking my new D750.... I just grabbed the D700 and a few lenses and headed out the door. It was only after I got to the game that it even dawned on me that I should have at least brought the new camera. Has anyone else done this before...

Has anyone heard anything concerning D750, or other Nikon equipment, availability? I got the last one from the store I patronize on Saturday, and someone I know tried to purchase one at another store and they were told that they had none and were not likely to get any in the near future...

How important is Nikon's Nano coating on telephoto lenses greater than 400mm? I ask because when I used to shoot a Hasselblad, the T* coating was considered important on wide-angle and normal-angle lenses, but the T* coating was not considered by all to be that important on telephoto lenses...

Folks, I received an e-mail from Nikon USA to let me know that they are running a 10% sale on some of their refurbished gear. I know some here might be interested, so I'm sharing. Refurbished Camera Products | Used Cameras, Lenses & Flashes | Nikon I know I said I'd never by Nikon...

I hope this little trip does't get me banned from the M&G next year. Starting it out, what else but a Great Blue Heron? I was a bit rusty, shooting wise, and was without my tripod since I left my allen key at home and couldn't mount my long lens on the tripod. I lost a lot of my shots to...

I was browsing adobe.com and ran across the following: https://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop-elements.html I had contemplated upgrading to Photoshop Elements, but balked at the price, hoping to find it on sale. With $45 off of the regular price of $99.99, I went ahead and purchased it. The...

Well, I've finally gotten the camera out for something that I want to do. Although it didn't go as well as I wanted it to, it's a start. My first shot is one of the blooms of my Mother's Christmas Cactus. WM

It took me a while, but I just finished reading Ayn Rand's Atlas Shrugged. Next up is Scott Kelby's Light it, Shoot It, Retouch It. WM

Last night, our local high school played in round two of the state playoffs. This link is to the band's half-time performance, which they put together in five days and one 2-hour practice. For the performance, my son played the bagpipes. This was only his second bagpipe performance this year...

I've recently received an e-mail advertising processing called Piccure +. I've read a couple of reviews and they were favorable, but I'd prefer to hear about it from anyone on Nikonites. Therefore, I ask, does anyone here use this software or is anyone familiar with it? WM

My son's high school band just received an invitation to participate in the 2017 Tournament of Roses in Pasadena, California, including marching in the parade on New Years Day of 2017. I'm still waiting on how much it is going to cost for the trip, but since there will be three of us attending...

That at B&H Photo, they indicate the $300 instant saving on the D750 ends today, August 29, 2015. :( Has anyone else heard from any other source that today is the last day where you can buy a retail USA D750 for 1996.95? I've looked around quickly and see no other indications that today is...

After last night's game, I'm realizing that I've got a problem with either my 70-200 mount or my D700 mount. I'll do some work to determine which is more the culprit, and then send the item needing repair to Nikon USA or a service center for repair. Does anyone else have any experience with...

I've had my D7100 for a bit over a year, now. I just got done attempting to get the autofocus fine tuned, and took it out this afternoon and evening for a photo shoot, with my 70-200 AF-S f2.8 VRII. Well, all I have to say upon getting the images loaded to my computer after my return home is...

From my wife's quilter's vacation. For what she spent, I could have two D750s or a D810 and accessories!! :p I'd say I'll be getting that new D750 now, but I can't afford it! :( I'm now rethinking my earlier decision to not take the second shooter jobs at weddings. WM

We've got a thread for your latest purchases, and one for purchases you regret. What about one where you highlight the purchase you're most pleased with. As time goes on, and new purchases are made, it could change, I suppose... So unless there is a thread on this subject elsewhere, let us...

A coworker and I had a discussion that we couldn't decide the answer to over lunch today. Can you folks chime in with your thoughts. It started when I made the statement that cameras with high ISO performance were getting extremely good, and less expensive, and may soon get to the point that...

I recently purchased the Reiken FoCal Pro software and ran some tests on camera & lens combinations. I had no problems testing my D7100 and AF-S 70-200 VRII, AF-S 300 VRII, each on their own and with TC-14 and TC-20, and my AF-D 80-200 w/o any converters. I am running into issues with the...
