This is a portrait I shot of my wife last night. Tried to submit it to the weekly challenge but came in too late with it. Hoping to get some feedback here. Likes? Dislikes? Constructive criticisms? Thank you!

I currently shoot a D7000 with a D90 as a backup/second body. I'd like to upgrade to either a D7200 or D500 as my main body, move my D7000 to backup, and give my D90 to my sister-in-law. I'm wondering if there's any good reason for me to spend the pretty significant difference on the D500 over...

I've decided I'd like buy a film camera to have some fun with. Certainly not replacing digital, but I'd like to have film available as a tool in the toolbox, so to speak. I've never shot film, so I have no idea what to look for/how to shop for a film camera. I do know these things though: 1...

I shoot a D7K. Love it except for the noise at and above ISO 3200. I have a good amount of money invested in DX glass so I'd like to stick with DX. How much better is the 7200's high ISO noise performance? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’m looking for some advice on resizing settings for sending photos to clients to use for online purposes (posting to Facebook etc.) but NOT for printing. In other words, a good general size that would be too small to make prints of, but big enough for online viewing. I was thinking 1000px on...

I am doing a shoot for some friends and I’m looking for suggestions for light modifiers. The subjects will be a couple and their two children (6 and 9). We will be doing shots of the couple, the kids, each half of the couple alone, and the four of them together. We will be shooting indoors...

Here's the look I want to replicate: https://youtu.be/aD8Cj_0VRZU Obviously they are pushing the FlashBender products. My question is, who else makes products that'll get the job done, possibly for less cash? I know there are tons of grids out there. No worries there. I'm referring more to...

Looking for some general feedback on these two images of my daughter I shot this past weekend. Lighting was a speedlight camera left a few feet above her angled down to create a spotlight look. No modifier was used, just bare flash set to 70mm zoom. Flash was in manual, I really don't...

I've been working a lot with off camera flash lately and I've realized what I can do is being limited by the fact that none of my flashes are capable of HSS. I am going to buy two HSS capable flashes. My question is whether or not which triggers I use matters. I currently use these cheap...

I would like to get a hand strap and holster for my cameras, a D90 and D7000. They both have vertical battery grips. Any suggestions? I'd like to be able to leave the hand strap attached to the camera at all times so it needs to be compatible with the holster. I was going to get a Peak...

Came across this oddball lens today and I think I want it! What can you folks tell me about it, good or bad? Would be used with a D90 and D300S. Thanks! https://www.adorama.com/us%20%20%20%20855737.html

Everyone talks about the 50mm 1.8, 35mm 1.8, etc. But what other awesome inexpensive lenses (new or used) are out there that don't get talked about as much?

I set up a makeshift “studio” in my living room on Sunday and did a shoot with my daughter. I selected this image at random out of the set for critique. It can be a tad difficult to get a two-year-old to pose for photos, but I really enjoy the facial expression I captured in this one. The...

Did this shoot in the living room yesterday. Thoughts? Link to the whole album: https://flic.kr/s/aHskRnAELt

Hi all. I currently have a 50mm f/1.8D. Is there any compelling reason to replace it with a 1.8G or a 1.4G, or would I be better served sticking with the 1.8D? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I'm in the market for a decent telephoto zoom to replace my 55-200mm f/4-5.6G. I really don't like that lens and as a result I shy away from shooting anything that needs that kind of reach. I shoot a D90, soon to be a D7100. I'd love a 70-200 2.8 but that kind of glass just isn't in the...

I already have backdrops and a backdrop stand but I need to put together a basic lighting setup to take portraits of my daughter at home. I love taking pictures and she loves having her picture taken so it's a win win! What would you guys recommend? I'm looking for a setup that's easy to set up...

Just looking for some quick feedback on this quick shot of my dog. Posting the original, the color edit and the bw edit. "Edits" are just quick Lightroom tweaks and I boosted the blue in his eyes in Photoshop on the color edit. Also, how do I get the EXIF data to be available for photos I...

I currently shoot with a D90 and have the following lenses: Nikon 50mm 1.8, Sigma 17-50mm 2.8, and a Nikon 55-200mm 4-5.6. I have about $600 available to spend right now on a piece of kit. I'm stuck between a used body as an upgrade to the D90 (either a 7100 or 7200) or a new lens. If I go...

What's the highest ISO setting I can be confident in using on my D90 without having pictures with too much noise? I have plans to upgrade to a body with better high ISO performance but that's not in the cards quite yet. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
