I had not really looked much at teleconverters and did not know much about them. I found this article helpful. I am not in the market for one right now, but at least now I understand a bit about the how and why of them. https://photographylife.com/what-is-a-teleconverter

Well I want to thank @Horoscope Fish and Don Kuykendall for the help and encouragement in trying to use photoshop. I have started slowly within my limits and it is going. I got rid of a garbage can and power lines and made boarders. Slow and steady is working. Learning. Repition helps...

Well the Sigma 10-20mm F3.5 EX DC made it in yesterday. Took my fist shots with it this morning. Was blessed with a nice sunrise. I like taking them just before the sun washes the color out.

I made one of those frustrating mistakes this week. But I was so wound up I missed it. Unfortunately that is part of the condition my condition is in. Before everything changed I had a decent memory and I was pretty pragmatic. I did not have to write much down. Now that is not the case...

Well this week I sold the scoot. Went to the local camera shop in Lexington, Murphy's, and bought the Nikkor 200-500 and a grip for the D7200. Last night I ordered the Wide angle end of the spectrum. I ended up going with a Sigma 10-20mm f/3.5 EX DC HSM ELD SLD Aspherical Super Wide Angle...

Saw this today... Seemed pretty good. and worth sharing.

Well, met with a friend to sell my scoot. I hate seeing her sit in the building with me unable to ride anymore. Got my first minibike in 67... this ole bike has 113000 miles on her and my Dad put 10 on two friends put about 15. I did the rest. Motor was rebuilt under warranty at 110K and...

Read this comparison earlier today. Seemed pretty reasonable. Thought it was worth sharing. https://photographylife.com/nikon-200-500mm-vs-tamron-150-600mm-vs-sigma-150-600mm-c

I was having a chance to go thru the D7200 sub forum and wow there were a lot of intense discussions. But I am so glad I was able to get mine. I look at some of the wild life and BIF shots and am amazed. Gives me something to aspire to. The jump from the D3200 to D7200 was dramatic. I...

I have what may be a strange question... I upgraded from a D3200 to the D7200 just a few weeks ago and I shoot mostly in Manual, Aperture or Shutter Priority. I understand what U1 and U2 are capable of, but I am struggling a bit trying to figure out what to use them for. I am just asking for...

Seems I got confused and posted mine in the wrong place. I can fix that easy enough. Here is January 1 #1

You know, I have been on a lot of forums over the years. Motorcycles, Cars, Politics, Religion, and probably more that are not worth mentioning. But one thing that took me a while to understand is that you cannot change someone's mind arguing your point on a forum. (Now I know I take a risk...

January 1, 2016 Number 1 Guess I will give this a try this year. Here are the first two. Yesterday just a shot of my dog out for a walk. Little Boarder Terrier with a lot of focus.

I wanted your all's thoughts on this question. First when I was using my D3200 I rarely if ever used Auto ISO. It is a good camera, but there was just more noise than I could deal with so I always set the ISO to the limit I could live with an minimize motion blur etc. I take a lot of pictures...

I know it is not a big deal, but I wish that Nikonites remembered me and I did not have to log in in every time I start the page.

When I first started lurking around on Nikonites one of the things I saw a lot was some variation of - "you can find this in your manual under.... xyz". And I really hated seeing that because for me the manual was a painful experience. I needed a magnifying glass to read it and much of the...

Folks I just wanted to share a thought or two and thank you all for all the help I have received on this site. I took up photography for the first time in November of last year with a D3200 after I had a stroke that made working as a marketing engineer pretty much impossible. Lots of...

Well, I have been saving for a while to move from my D3200 to a D7200. I got the email about the one day sale and I bought it. UPS delivered it yesterday afternoon. I will admit that I am a bit overwhelmed by the menus... probably will be for a while, but I did figure out how to set up the...

Well we got about 18" of snow over night! Processed it using Nik Plug-ins just to mess wit black and white. Danno D3200 Nikkor AF-S 50 mm1.8 G Sigma 18-250 Macro

We have been having a bit of February winter here in Anderson County. I am not crazy for snow... Cannot really get out in it anymore so I have been kind of confined to the house. But a couple days ago we just had some nice sun that lit up my front yard... wanted to post it. I originally...
