Hi I was thinking of getting some Auto extension tubes adn I was wondering if they would work ok on Nikon 70-300 mm VR f4.5-5.6. as In the information book indicates that they can not be used? I also have Nikon 18-70 mm Dx would they work on this lens ok ?

I am thinking of getting my first macro lens. I have been looking at either the Sigma 105 2.8 DG or the Tamron SP AF 90 2.9 Di Please could any one give me any advise on either? I will be using it on a Nikon D80 for photographing flowers and possibly dragonflies and lizards.

Hi this has probably been asked before can you or is there a way to find out if any of your photos are being used with out your permission?

Hi as the title really , what do people think of the Nikon 55-300mm how dose it compare with the sigma or to the nikon 70-300mm vr I look forward to your comments.

looks like titanium could be the next step for tripods

I am 6'2" and I do not have any problems with my MLT9351b but its best to try the different one in your shortlist.

I use a Giottos MLT9351b and find to work well

Another vote here for the Giottos MTL9351B I have had mine for a few weeks now using it with a camera and a leica spotting scope a great tripod.

Any one?

I think the driving factor could well be the demands the professional photographers make on their equipment a bit like car improvement filter down from Formula 1. There are things which are aimed more at the consumer market IE movie mode. I for one would like to have seen may be some weather...

D80 to D90 a good case in point one of the main selling points was the video mode do we really need this on a stills camera? There was other up grades as well over D80 but the question is would the average person notice a big difference in the end result. Are we close to diminishing returns...

I agree with you horses for courses and all that and its interesting that Pro equipment seems to go longer between upgrades. It is in the entry level and mid level and semi pro equipment that the manufactures seem to do the must have upgrades. It could be that this area is the one that is more...

Thank you for your comments I tend to use View NX now as you say it is limited what you can do but seems to work ok.
