Horrified, I then set about cleaning all my lenses, front and back, only to find I still had the problem. I read in a magazine that a dirty sensor could be the problem, so I bought one of...

    Box wine??

    Last night my better half handed me a carrier bag and asked "Do you like box wine?" I took it from her and gave it a little shake, wondering why it wasn't making any sloshing noises. It was well wrapped up, and when I got to the last layer, I could see the tell-tale gold and black box with D7100...

    Macroless macro

    I have a Sigma 70-300mm APO macro Super lens with an AML macro screw-on lens. This lens served me very well on my F90, and does a good job as a telezoom on my D90, but it will not focus in Macro mode (even manually) with the AML lens attached. My camera manual isn't much help, so can anyone...
