    "HD TUNE" Software to Check Memory Cards

    Does anyone here use a software product like HD Tune to examine the health of their cards, especially brand new, untested ones? Are there competitors out there? Seems like a useful tool. HD Tune website

    The "In's and Out's" of Program Mode

    With my latest camera (D5300), I have decided to give Program Mode a try, especially after reading the reference manual. ISO is Auto. When I was first playing around with it, I was sitting in my living room, and it didn't appear to work as the manual described. Just now, I stepped outside for...

    Taking Equipment (bodies & lenses) Out Into the Cold

    It is finally cold here in Indiana, and I am wondering about condensation when taking lenses from the house to the outside. I originally was thinking about lenses, but I would imagine camera bodies could also suffer. Advice?

    Hand brake

    Re: Vehicular Trouble This caught my eye on the way to work one day, back in 2006. I titled it "Two Objects" (as in "Two objects cannot occupy the same space/time.")

    Tokina 16-28mm f/2.8 AT-X PRO FX, anyone got/use one?

    I am just starting to investigate a wide angle lens for my FX, and this one has caught my eye. I will be watching this thread! @TedG954, it was your recent thread that got me looking at Tokina! Thanks! But, unlike my other poor lens choices, I am going to read and ask questions here before...

    'Subject is too dark' on a bright sunny cloudless day at noon

    I have gotten a lot of these frozen action shots of my cats, but they are generally outdoors. When I am shooting the cats, my camera is usually on Scene/Pet portrait/Continuous High. I have gotten some acceptable shots indoors, too, with a variety of lenses. But my first lens purchase is a...

    Hello from Indianapolis

    After reading so many of the posts here, I am SO GLAD I grew up on film! I have a good understanding of the relationship between shutter and aperture. And I understand ISO, because we had to decide what ISO we were putting in our camera when we purchased a roll of film! I was pretty much a...

    'Subject is too dark' on a bright sunny cloudless day at noon

For instance, I copied this image from another post of mine, but I had to use the URL (I am at work...) and it did not...

    500 mm mirror lens example

    Here is my female cat, inside, hand-held. Auto color correction. 5-foot minimum focus? That is incredible. It sure is a long way from there to infinity, though!

    500 mm mirror lens example

    I just received my N-Version! I love it! I'm definitely in the market for a (real) tripod now, and I love my ML-L3, even more, now! :) Here is one my cats from about 12 feet away. He was in the shadows, so I had to lighten it up a little in my 2.0 version of PS, and my talents in there are...
