As a present to all on the forum, I'll be leaving today. Best wishes to all of you in your photographic pursuits!

One of my great joys is my living room camera. Yes, a camera that basically stays in the living/dining room and is used to capture the things my wife cooks, the dog being upside-down and throwing his toys, or my kids doing what kids do. The current camera is a D5100. Lovely camera, great images...

People steal stuff everywhere, even Iowa. I was out shooting at a State Park yesterday and somehow lost a small amount of photo gear. I initially thought I had left the items out and drove away w/o them - and they were gone by the time I returned - but I have a photo that seems to indicate...

Yesterday I ventured into my first ever Craigslist purchase attempt. It wasn't for photographic gear, it was for a boat, but I have read of similar photo-related encounters where you meet with the guy and it's not at ALL what the ad indicated. In my case the ad said "Runs GREAT!" but when I got...

I recently sent a Canon 1Ds Mk III in for service. That was the only thing that went right - it got there. I suspected a failing shutter so I wanted to know what the shutter count was before authorizing repair. First thing I get from Canon is an email saying they got it. Ok, good. I get a...

We have a macro post, a flowers post, a birds post, and many many others, but I didn't see a 35mm film pictures post. So I made one. :) Squash lady. Nikon F6, Fujis Superia 100 film.

Got my F6 back from Nikon California; repaired the aperture control lever. $200 poorer I opened the package up and discovered something odd. I don't recall if it was this way before I sent it in or not, but the focus selector switch now clicks nicely only between S and C. When you push it to M...

Got it from B&H in used (8+) condition. The shutter count is 25K and the major wear is on the image zoom in and zoom out buttons. The prior owner was obviously a devoted pixel peeper. :) Oddly, the package came with an aftermarket battery, and the battery charger had no power cord! I hope it's...

So, I dug my "nearly mint" F6 out of storage this weekend, only to discover the aperture control tab/lever was messed up. It sticks, so you'd take a picture and the viewfinder gets darker and often can't autofocus. I tried some limited bending/prodding to see if I can get it back into place, but...

So, I'm thinking of replacing my D3000 with a D5100. I own a D7100 and a D200 so the D3000 has become somewhat redundant. I'm mainly interested in getting fewer blown out highlights, something my D3000 tends to do more than I'd like. I am looking to spend no more than $250 USD, which is right...

I was at a zoo Saturday. Most of the "photographers" were using their dreadful cell phones (which half seemed not to know how to use) but I was looking at the handful of SLRs in the crowd. Every single one was a Canon. I was shooting a Canon too (70D), FWIW. I did see one Nikon, a Coolpix...

Just curious, are such images allowed on this site?

Anyone still using 'em? Why no D100 sub forum?

Hi all! I sent my D600 in for repair, and the service ticket says: Problem: SENSOR DUST No Charge/Good Will Repair That's it. It's out for delivery today, but is that what Nikon writes when they replace the shutter? Will a more thorough explanation be in the box? To me, it sounds like they...
