    What is the difference between two 50mm f/1.8G lenses?

    Amazon has two different 50mm f/1.8G lenses advertised. I am familiar with the one, but the other is listed as a Special Edition lens with a price of $276.95--it is temporarily out of stock. Do that many people want to pay the extra money for it? What does it do that the regular 50mm f/1.8G...

    Right Angle Viewfinder

    Has anyone used Nikon's Right Angle Viewfinder? I'm just wondering whether it is worth the $194 price tag. I can see its benefit especially for macro photography when the camera is really low to the ground. If you have used one, how do you like it, and when did you use it? And any pro/con...

    LightScribe external DVD burner vs. DVD labels

    Does anyone know of a good external LightScribe DVD burner that is less than $100? My LG LightScribe burner blew 2 of my USB ports. :( Alternately, I am also considering using regular DVDs and putting DVD labels on them. Do you have any suggestions which brand of labels are good? For the high...

    Extension Tube question

    I still have a lens that I used with my N90s. It is a Sigma AF 70-210mm f/3.5-4.5 APO macro. Granted it is not a true macro lens--I'm not sure if it is 1:2 or 1:3, but will extension tubes work with this type of zoom macro lens? As a telephoto lens, it was pretty sharp--even sharper than the...

    Aperture and noise

    Does the aperture selected affect noise that is generated when using a high ISO (specifically the D600)? When I shot the theater photos Friday night, I used ISO 1250. Since they had an extra spotlight that isn't normally used, I was able to shoot at @f/6.3 to f/7.1 instead of f/4.5 or wider...

    How large of an SDHC card do you use?

    Since my D600 will get shipped back to Nikon today, I'll be using my D90 to shoot my local high school's theater production--TONIGHT (or tomorrow night if something unexpected comes up today)! I've never used a card larger than 8GB in it because that's what recommended, but when I asked about...

    HELP Please! D600 and ISO equivalent 50

    Last week when I shot the waterfalls photos, I switched my ISO to the lowest setting possible--whatever is equivalent to ISO 50. The photos turned out fine as far as I can tell. I have 2 questions: 1. Since the equivalent ISO technically isn't ISO 50 but is listed something like ISO LO 1.0...

    Brides Throwing Cats

    Brides throwing cats This sounds like it is a hit with some people. They actually don't throw the cats--the cats are photoshopped into the photos (I'm a cat lover and wouldn't want them to get hurt). It's a unique idea and a way to generate some additional income. For those who have...
