No disrespect intended but honestly this sounds like a bit of a pointless rant, unfortunately your lack of information and lack of clarity means this thread isn't really much use, all it will do is leave folks guessing! There is certainly nothing inherent in the design of teleconverters that...

I've been a Nikon user for over thirty years and have used teleconverters extensively, never heard of such a problem. If the indexing marks are aligned correctly there should be no problems. Trying to mount a teleconverter on a lens which isn't designed to receive it would cause problems...

Hi Will, except that it doesn't mask the branches correctly or even the upper part of the trunk, the dark replacement sky has appeared over part of the trunk!

And that is why you don't sufficiently understand it so why try and promote it!

I'm sorry to dissapoint you old chap but don't come here with your news of a major revelation and feel let down when others who've been around a while and who also understand these things aren't as impressed as you are. Understand the fundamentals of photography, apply them to modern technology...

You think you've discovered something new, grow up, try and grasp the fundamentals, then come back to me and admit you were sidetracked, then I'll have a discussion with you!

Lol, I can only but laugh out loud. Stop trying to shortcut the fundamentals of photography which to all and intense purposes are all to do with light, rather the quantity and quality of light. The originator of this thread thinks he's hit on something new, well sorry but I don't think so. With...

BS. Like the shutter speed doesn't matter, like focal length of the lens makes no difference, like subject distance and sensor size make no difference. These people need to stop trying to mess with what I know to be correct, I will remain sceptical, understanding of the fundamentals of...

Unfortunately Battersea dogs home is full of unwanted dogs, many of whom end up their because their owners didn't think through owning a dog or they bought the wrong dog, I'm glad you wont be adding to the numbers 'cos it sounds as though you'll never buy/steal/own a dog. Shame more people...

Acratech make good levelling bases.

Imac and Macbook pro here too, no problems as yet, not suggesting there will necessarily be problems, lol. We do seem to be getting more and more updates these days,it's one of the reasons I left windows based machines many years ago, perhaps we're just catching up ;););)

Honestly Liam, I can't remember these were just a couple of examples I pulled from my archive. In practice it's not too tricky just bear in mind if you are shooting either very light or dark planes this needs to be taken into account. I do love airshows unfortunately I rarely get the chance to...

I think there is no easy answer to this question,conditions vary enormously between the sky and your subject............ In this shot spot or centre weighted metering would probably give a decent exposure as the subject is very nearly a medium(18%) grey, there's a good chance matrix could be...

Sorry to have wasted your time Gramps, seems just the viewNX element is new then, seems my Capture NXD hadn't updated previously. I'll edit the title of this thread to read"Update for Nikon view nx" again sorry to have mislead you tony PS I was trying to be helpful
