Sorry, I tried to upload it, but apparently the .MOV file is too large (even though it's only a six second clip). So instead I uploaded it to my Flickr page and you can see if there if you'd like. It was shot facing the North Star (Polaris), and consists of three hours of 20sec exposures (f5...

I've yet to decide, but I'm leaning towards keeping my Windows 7 setup, with LR5.7.1, at least for now. It all works together and it does what I need it to do.... But in the future, if I upgrade to LRCC ...? My wife has Win10 on her laptop, and little things about it bug me, even though I'm...

Was wanting to update my profile to include my new camera, it doesn't seem to be on the list. Or, ...It might be I'm just not seeing it...

My previous experience with Nikon DSLRs was that the (less expensive) generics worked fairly well, with some brands holding a charge better than others. That was okay, because they were a fraction of the price of the Nikon EN-EL14s that my D5200 and D3200 used. Before I even had the D500 in...

With the Tamron 150-600 telephoto. Mostly cloudy, overcast skies in the morning and I was shooting in the wood. I still found an unacceptable (to me) amount of graininess in most of the photos over ISO800. Higher ISO is nowhere near as bad as my previous camera (D5200), but it's still an issue...

Hi all, I'm hoping you can help me.... I got my D500 yesterday, and today took it to a National Wildlife Refuge to try it out with my telephoto and macro lenses. I had the camera save the files as Large, RAW, lossless compressed files. I also had it use the SD card as backup to the XQD card...

During a recent visit to Muscatatuck National Wildlife Refuge, I got to watch a family of nine otters play and hunt for over half an hour. I took a lot of pictures, these are some of the best. I'm still not satisfied with many pictures I take in direct sunlight. I used the AF on the lens...

At the Tamron Tailgate party that came through here, there were quite a few people who use flashes in conjunction with their zooms to fill in the shadows with birds deep in the canopy. I was curious if you all had any experience or recommendations for settings or techniques. One annoyance is...

Getting correct focus is my constant challenge. As I've gotten older, I come to the point that I need reading glasses. However, I don't wear them when I'm looking through the viewfinder. Instead, I was told to adjust the diopter until everything seemed in focus. Which sounds easier than it...

Hi folks. I just discovered this forum this evening, and it looks to be one of the most informative and friendliest I've run across. I first started taking closeup pictures for work, but it merged with my other hobbies (arachnology and bird-watching) and became a real interest, both in and...
