    Nikon 400mm f5.6

    Took this lens out today and paired it with my D90. Through the viewfinder everything looks good if you focus manually. Press the shutter and nothing, refuses to take what's framed. Put same lens on my D600, no problem. The lens is not assigned as a non CPU lens on either body. Ani ideas

    I have just purchased the above lens. It appears to have no tripod mount. Has someone lost it in this example? Can't really work out the differences between the three generations. Can someone enlighten me further.....

    non cpu lens data

    Weird stuff happening. Was a post about the Nikon Micro 400 which stated it was useless for macro. I got mine out and attempted to add it to one of the the nine data positions. I did have seven configured and working perfectly. I decided to place it at position 7 after my 105 micro. Went to set...

    Battery issue D90

    Got myself a D90 with MB80 grip. Charged both batteries and installed in grip. Left overnight. If I go to battery info the left hand battery is 80% and battery age 0 (new). The battery in the left slot is 100% and age 0 but has an exclamation mark over the battery icon. Just dirty terminals...

    Want to replace size of SD card

    So, I bought a Df.... Love it, trouble was when it arrived the only SD card I could find was 4GB. Formatted the card and then spent a couple of days configuring it to suit the way I used to shoot in the 90's. The 4GB card will only hold 80 odd images, so I bought a 16GB one. Now there is an...

    EXIF data sometimes doesn't show

    Why is it that my EXIF data is sometimes there and sometimes appears as NA? Posted a photo yesterday and the only PP i did was a tiny crop to remove something in the foreground. It shows as NA. Is it because of this cropping?

    F3t

    Anyone got one of these cameras? I bought a used one and just weighed the rear film door and it's heavier than my regular F3. As it is made from titanium I assumed it would be lighter!!! Can anyone duplicate my findings?

    Lightroom 5 fonts

    There are lots of members out there that have wonderful cursive (handwritten style) watermarks with copyright info. I have only found one cursive font within LR5 so wondered how you get those fonts you use?

    Butterfly in flight (sort of)

    Was outside cleaning some lenses and noticed a butterfly fluttering around my rosemary. Fitted the lens (AFS 70-300 VR) and snapped this. Not pixel perfect (massively cropped) but I kind of like the blur.:)˙

    Install Lightroom 4 program/application on external drive?

    I've trolled the net trying to find a definitive answer to this. I'm a Mac user. Recently bought an external 2TB drive to export my catalog to, as the hard drive space on my primary laptop dwindles. I have installed OSX 7 on the external drive and it seems like a really good idea to just install...

    Switch between both SD cards when viewing?

    Card 1 is NEF, Card 2 JPEG. Normally after exposure my camera (D600) displays the (latest) NEF file. If it's a dud I delete it straight away, but then have to scroll through the whole JPEG card to delete that version too. The manual mentions something about pressing the BRKT button but that...

    JPEG vs RAW

    Shot three or four shots today and camera is set up to record the same exposure as a JPEG and RAW. Why are the exposures more "correct" with the JPEG's than the RAW's? Colors more vibrant and just better? I know it can be fixed post shooting, but why are they so different? Picture Control is set...

    Lengthen review mode

    Can't work out how to increase the time Review allows you if you want to examine a shot in detail. If you don't press the magnifying button and navigate quickly enough it turns off and you have to do it again even quicker. Difficult!!! Is there a setting to adjust?

    I can fly

    Went to watch my horse in work a while earlier in the month. The objective for me was to capture her in full stride with all her feet off the ground. Mission accomplished!!! Really good detail of her harness, buckles, etc
