Unless it is unaffordable at 2499, but affordable at 2175, I'd get the new one if I were in the market for a D850. That amount of savings isn't worth the risk to me; one repair, if needed and not covered under warranty, could easily erase the difference in the price. But while the D850 is...

I've witnessed plenty of "People's Choice" competitions that I strongly disagreed with. That's why I recommend joining and participating in print competitions at a PSA sanctioned photography club. These print competitions use standardized scoring criteria conducted by judges who have likely...

Now that you've joined, participate to the fullest extent that you can! In addition, if you can find a local photography group that is affiliated with PSA, and has regular opportunities for you to have photos (prints) judged according to PSA criteria, do so. At first, the judging and...

For proper exposure, I always use the "Sunny 16"rule for moon photos, and only on clear nights. If the sky isn't clear enough to use this rule, I'm just wasting my time.

I've been lurking here more than posting here. Haven't been out with my camera since early May. I've had other obligations that have, sadly, now ended.

As they say, when life gives you lemons, take photos of Spoonbills!

It's a bit low, overall. I don't believe that I've ever seen distilled spirits bottled at less than 80 Proof/40%.

And the fact that computer storage is downright cheap compared to the value of the photos! Just for the grandkids portion, you can get more of them side-by-side in a shot with the same lens at any given distance! With landscapes, the D850 will give you a wider view with almost the same pixel...

Have you thought of putting it up for sale for parts?

First of all, how are they broken? Do you have any idea if they could be repaired? If so, and you don't want them anymore, could there be a local high school that could use them for a photography class or the yearbook staff? A few years ago, I had an old broken Bogen tripod that I was able to...

When I moved back to Florida, I was contacted by a representative of a law office about them helping me file my claim. Since I didn't initially have the paperwork to file my claim on my own, I might have used them if it weren't that they were going to end up with almost all of my "refund."

I didn't go through this site, but the State of Florida's site, so I can't say whether it's a scam or not. My claim was paid fairly rapidly, and while it didn't make me rich, it was a nice benefit to have.

Yes, I did. I was able to get it because I found an old paper pay statement with the address associated with the claim. Since I didn't have any of my old checks or billing statements from back then, I figured I was out of luck since filing the claim required some such documentation. Then...

Happy New Year, Marilynne! May 2023 be a wonderful for all!

Merry Christmas to all Nikonites. Scott Murray, it's good to hear from you again. (I have not been around much, lately, and have missed seeing your photos for even longer!

Whenever I previously tried to visit the newly published site, I got a lot of jumbled text, and while I was often pointed to a link or thread within the site, I was unable to go to any of them. Well, I quit trying about two-or-three weeks ago, due to frustration and other commitments taking so...

At long last, I can access nikonites.com again. Thank you!

What happened to precipitate the change?

Today is definitely an editing/culling day. Woke up this morning and the temps were still in the 80s (F). The local thermometer is now at 99 F and there isn't a cloud of significance in the sky. The heat index is reported as 108-110. And I know some of you are experiencing even hotter...
