    Anyone ever heard of "Native ISO"?

    I just read an article that said the cleanest image you can get is by using a camera's "native ISO" rather than whatever zero's out your exposure meter. It said that Canon's native ISO is 80 and you should increase it in increments, from 80 to 160 to 320, etc. Whereas Nikon's "native ISO" is 120...

    Where to find existing firmware for 5500

    I want to hack my camera to allow 64 bit unlimited time shooting, but since there aren't any firmware updates for the 5500 I can't do it. If I could find a source to download the existing firmware that would work, but I can't find it to download anywhere. Anybody know where I can find the...

    Aperture question, and one other thing...

    I can't edit the title? Grrrrr.... It's supposed to say Aperture question, and one other thing.... Anyway.... This is the first time I've ever googled questions and not gotten the answer back, only general links to reviews about the camera. I checked the online manual but can't find anything on...

    How to stop D5500 from taking a picture every time I used touch AF

    I just picked this camera up yesterday and still haven't gotten a chance to play with it, but I did try touch screen AF. Love it, but every time I touch the screen to focus, it takes a picture. Since I shoot mostly video I can do without that feature. Is there a way to keep the camera from...

    Will Nikon ever upgrade D3300 firmware?

    I've been doing some research on new cameras for the purpose of possibly upgrading from my D3300, but to tell you the truth, this camera is still a monster. Newer Nikon's still use the Expeed4 processor, sensor's are the same, noise levels aren't improved. In short the only reason to upgrade is...

    Display Info style doesn't change

    You know how there are six styles to display Info in the monitor? I know how to change it. The problem is, it won't change. It's stuck on the dark gray/black background. I'll change it, but when I get out of menu and back to the info display it's still the dark gray/black background. Any ideas?

    I changed FPS in Live View mode. Don't remember how I did it!!!

    I was messing around my house just now, just trying different settings on my camera while shooting video. At one point I pressed a button and, low and behold, I was given the option of changing my FPS right in Live View! I don't know how I did it, and pressing what I thought was the right button...

    Odd problem caused by WU-1a adapter

    My D3300 came with the WU-1a adapter (thank you very much, Costco). Anyway, up until now I've had no reason to use it. Today I found an Android app called dslrDashboard which basically turns your tablet or phone into a remote monitor and you can also control everything from WB to Focus and ISO...
