    Latest Nikon 80-400 or 200-500 for Airshows on D750?

    I've got the later 80-400 and at RIAT last year I couldn't get all of the A400 in the shot at 80mm when it was closest, even the Chinook filled the frame at 80mm when it was hovering near to our viewing field. Likewise when the Red's came over with the Vulcan I was using 80mm. I won't use a...

    Nikon D7xxx owners thread

    I don't know what the difference is Dmac. I checked out the images in NXD using the RAW file with no PP, obviously just looking to see what is coming off the sensor. Since that post I've taken a few photos at dusk using 3200 and they are OK, I reckon a bit of PP and they'd be fine, so for me...

    Nikon D7xxx owners thread

    I picked up my D7200 late last week and have spent today playing with different lenses and different settings. My previous camera was a D7000, so very similar. The biggest improvement I've seen is in the ISO settings. I've had a look at shade outdoor and dark and light in my garage. In both...

    Nikon D7xxx owners thread

    Mines UK sourced and I didn't get a lcd cover either. Nikon has a manual online that you can save to a mobile device, a lot more convenient than a 395 page booklet!! I'm not sure if this has been covered, but to use NXD with the 7200 you need version 1.2. I had 1.1 which didn't work. I...

    Budget lens for Nikon FX

    I use the Tamron 24-135mm and find it excellent. It's the only non-Nikon lens I have and it won't be for sale any time soon.

    GULP.....need some advice

    2 things, make a list of the shots that she wants, bride exiting car, bride entering church, bride at the altar, but don't forget to ask permission of the vicar to photograph in church. He'll tell you what you can and can't do. 2nd thing is to remember to organise the guests to the groups that...

    Back focus or not on d7000 samples

    I had a similar problem with my D7000. However on mine the focus wasn't predictable. It wasn't far out but it was never really sharp, sometimes it back focused other times just generally soft. I took it to Lehmans who diagnosed a faulty mirror, replaced it and setup the camera with one of my...

    Nikon D600 / D610 Official Users thread - Anything D6x0 related

    Yes it was, I notice that the offer has now disappeared. Maybe it was too good to be true and Amazon pulled it, who knows? Kev

    Nikon D600 / D610 Official Users thread - Anything D6x0 related

    I've just noticed that Amazon have these at an incredible price, currently £1360. Does anyone know if htis is a UK camera or will it be a grey import? It seems too good to be true, so I'm wary. Kev

    Lehmann's

    I sent a camera for repair 2 weeks ago. They took 2 days to find the fault and send me a quote and a further 4 days to get the part and repair it. Very impressed. Kev

    Nikon 18-300mm

    This lens has been out for a few weeks now and there has been very little feedback on here about it. Do I take it that the lens is either not very popular or so good that people are keeping quiet about it :lol: anyone care to put up their considered thoughts? cheers Kev

    IPAD FOR PP

    I've never used Mac, but recently been given an iPhone for work and I'm well impressed. I'm thinking about buying my wife an iPad to use for web browsing and I'm wondering about using it for PP instead of; or as well as my PC. Is the iPad suitable for photo editing and is Lightroom...
