    AF Nikkor ED 180mm f/2.8 - anyone ever dismantled?

    I took some indoor headshot portraits with my kit 24-120 f4 and was a little underwhelmed, and was also watching the "Angry Photographer" https://www.youtube.com/user/kathodosdotcom and he is always raving about the 180 f/2.8. Okay he raves about lots of things but the 180mm is cheap and seems...

    used Sony NEX-6

    Sometimes a Nikon D750 is just too big, like maybe if you are going to a social gathering of some kind. So today I picked up a Sony NEX-6 with the tiny Power Zoom 16-50 for £228 with six month warranty from a camera shop. It was a bit more than I wanted to pay but you don't get to pick up and...

    Back Button Focus, enabling and disabling it easily?

    I just upgraded from a D3100 to a D750 (about four weeks ago). The D3100 rarely came out of Auto mode, but now my daughter is doing wonderful things with it so I got to upgrade. One of the things I saw in Tony Northrup's wonderful tutorial (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GmT4wVNTTjE) was Back...

    used AF-S 70-300 1:4.5-5.6 G VR hunting and rattling autofocus

    I bought a 70-300 AF-S VR on ebay a few days ago and today it arrived. It was described by the seller as "Used - but in excellent condition." which is one of the reasons I bought this particular one. I just tried is on my brand new D750 (which works perfectly with my 24-120 F4) and when I try to...

    Is a used Nikon 1 J3 any good?

    I have my D750 and some lenses, and I have a Sony DSC-HX20V for when I'm out and about and not planning to take photos but it's small enough to carry anyway. I notice that one can get Nikon 1 J3 with 10-30mm now for about £120 on ebay. It seems like a lot of small camera for very little money...

    Dieselnutjob's photos

    First trip out with my new D750. We went to Whipsnade for the day. Some shots are taken with the kit 24-120mm and others with an old plastic mount 70-300mm f/4-5.6 G lens that originally came with my F55 film camera. I also took some nice head shots of my daughter but she doesn't want me to...

    How the camera creates JPEGs? and do Macbooks show JPEGs different to Windows?

    I bought my D750 a couple of weeks ago, and a pair of fast 128Gb SD cards. For the first time I started to mess with raw NEF format. I followed the advice to save to both cars in NEF+JPEG(Fine). Last Sunday we went to Whipsnade zoo and had a play, and that evening had a look at the results. I...

    Hi from London UK

    Hello I bought a D750 with 24-120 f/4 a couple of weeks ago. I have been trying to post some photos from my Flickr account but so far the site isn't letting me. Maybe after a few posts....
