I've taken a few Ferris Wheel photos in the past, but they've changed the lights on this one to do a programmed light show. Has anyone taken photos of ferris wheels with this type of lights, and if so, what suggestions do you have to offer? Please forward the video to @1:34 to really see how the...

My D600 consistently front focuses with both my Nikon 70-300mm f/4.5-5.6 and Sigma 70-200mm f/2.8 lenses. Attached is an unedited photo (except for resizing) which was taken at 300mm using autofocus (single point AF-S), aperture f/5.6, shutter speed 1/400, ISO 400. The focus point was towards...

Last night I took theater photos for the local drama students and decided to set my D600 to RAW+jpeg. I shot well over 200 photos, but when I imported the files to my computer, I don't see any RAW files. Both cards appear to have jpegs on them. First I tried using Windows to import the files...

Just recently I read a post asking if anyone experienced problems when using an AF Nikkor 20mm f/2.8D lens on a D600 (I thought it was this forum but can't find the thread). Yesterday I tried mine out for the first time on my D600 and wound up with the same problem the OP experienced...

I will be giving my nephew one of my D90s along with a couple of lenses. Currently he has a digital camera by another manufacturer although I don't think the lens can be removed. He mentioned eventually getting something else possibly by Nikon so I figured I'd give him a D90. I have the Nikon...

This article contains a few moon photos taken by a photographer who spent a lot of time staking out the right spot. Just wondering what your thoughts are? Do you really think it is possible to achieve these based on the description of how they were taken? How the hell is this photo of the Moon...

I own a Nikon 20mm f/2.8D lens but would like to get something a little wider; however, the 14-24mm f/2.8 is more than I'd like to spend. My local camera store said the Nikon 16-35mm f/4 would be a good alternative optically so if I decide to sell my 20mm, do you think the 16-35mm would be a...

I am trying to decide on a wide angle lens for my D600 keeping the price under $1k. Currently my widest lens is a Nikon 20mm f/2.8 (the next lens up that I have is a Sigma 24-70mm f/2.8). I would consider either giving my 20mm to my nephew or selling it if I get a zoom that covers that length...

I have a Bogen 3047 tripod head, and the cork on the quick release plate has come loose. I can peel off the cork and am wondering what the best type of adhesive will be to mount it again. When I use it now, my lenses swivel when the head is switched to the vertical position so I need to fix this...

Has anyone encountered any problems when trying to install Lightroom 4 while having Spyder 4 Pro already installed? I own a Windows 7 computer. While trying to install Lightroom, I noticed my laptop display was changing from its darker display setting (after recently being calibrated by my newly...

Since I am new to upgrading to an FX camera (D600 from a D90), is it better to shoot in full frame and crop the image in post production or use the DX crop mode feature in camera? Will one yield a larger file and/or a better final image than the other especially if enlarged? Thanks for any...

I know there are many videos available on how to clean the oil spots from the D600's sensor, but since I've never done a wet clean, I'd like to be steered towards a video that is highly recommended. And since there are a number of wet cleaning products available, which ones do you prefer and...

Currently I own 2 Nikon D90 camera bodies and am looking to upgrade one of them (I will be giving one of these to my nephew along with a few lenses). I tried out a D7000 but do not like the overly easy sub command dial that I tend to bump while in Aperture Priority plus the camera has focusing...
