I have been using a D5100 for about 3 years, and recently upgraded to the D5300. I am very pleased with the new camera, but I'm having one small issue....
I am still using the same three lenses I was using for the D5100 (Nikkor 18-55mm, Nikkor 55-300mm, and Sigma 10-20mm wide angle). I use the Sigma wide angle lens the most for landscapes, and like to use the flip out screen in live mode for taking photos down low of water, etc...
I have recently discovered that, for some reason, the D5300 will not allow me to take photos in live view mode with that lens only. It works just fine with the other lenses, but not with the wide angle Sigma. Can anyone think of a reason why this is happening? The Sigma works perfectly fine using the regular viewfinder....just not in live view.
Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated. Perhaps there is some setting I am just missing....
Regards,
Wade
