I got one of these because I got curious. After a few short days I have to say that I still prefer the rendering and especially the bokeh of my Nikon AFS 35/1.4G, but the cheap Siggy is not far behind. And I dislike with a passion the USB Docky thingy that has become a necessity. But after all...

I am a big supporter of K.I.S.S., hence desktop in all my machines is 18 % gray.

I try to add my new teleconverters TC-14E III and TC-20E III but the pop-up list that appears does not contain those and I can't add them. Same for AF-S VR Nikkor 400mm f/2.8G. I'm missing something really simple here, can someone help me out? Peter

Road Virus Heads North From a rabbit's point of view this can be quite large.

withdrawn I must have overlooked some rules, since this was moved to another forum. Apologies. Unfortunately this other forum is not what I was looking for. *withdrawn*

Division of labor The chicks rake the leaves and I shoot the pictures.

I have an antique Nikon D1X that got neglected and never got the firmware update. The update is possible only in service as this camera predates the user upgradeable modern cameras. Lately I have taken it out of naphtalene and I actually like using it. The biggest grief is the small buffer...

Stormy monday

A candid of my daughter. Her expression caught my eye, the pure joy of discovering new things. 50 mm, ISO 200, f/1.4, 1/400, available light

A dear friend of 31 years, a colleague, a wicked math geek and the most generous friend a man can ask for. I shot the last one yesterday, it took me quite a while to be able to approach this subject with a calm and analytic mind. These are part of my personal mourning process. I wish strength...

D3s Sigma 50/1.4 ISO 400 | f/1.4 | 1/320

Okay, since several members began their own project at the beginning of August, I'll do the same. My theme will be my daily life, and to make it more challenging, I'll crop all my shots to 16:9 format. I try to find something that is significant to me, causing an emotion or bringing back...

A portrait of my brother. Larger version here: _P7F2046_250711 | Flickr - Photo Sharing! Critique and comments welcome. D3x | AF 85/1.4D | f/4

My daughter tried jumping on a trampoline for the very first time. I'm sure the look of these shots is not for everyone, but for me it conveys the exhilaration. We usually think that lens flare is bad. This time though the shots would have been same-o-same-o blah without it. Lens flare is bad...

Here is a new attempt from yesterday. Two year olds are so viciously difficult to make stand still for more than a few seconds... not her problem though. :p Here my daughter is sipping her juice. Any hope with the picture? Link to larger: _P7F1786_220711 | Flickr - Photo Sharing! EDIT...

These aquilegias grow just beyond my study window. I can photograph them every evening. Critique welcome. Again here's the bigger image: _P7F9595_280611 | Flickr - Photo Sharing! D3x | Micro-Nikkor AI-s 105/2.8 | f/5.6 | a piece of black cardboard

Hi, I'm new here and I thought I'd post a picture. This is my 2 yo daughter at playground, where I usually like to grab a few snapshots of her. I cropped it to 8x10 format. Any c&c welcome. The picture is larger than maximum allowed here, so I'll add a link below: _P7F0487_080711b | Flickr -...
