    Nikon View NX

It starts to transfer and then says 'an unexpected error has occurred'. I have no idea what to do and...

    Nikon D7xxx owners thread

    collected mine today! not at the bargin price as the above post (lucky you) but still really happy with it. makes the D3000 look like a right tiddler!. I was told my 50mm prime would fit but it doesn't - do I need an adapter then?!. oh dear, more money to be spent.

    1st safari advice

    take a cushion for your behind, it is a really bumpy journey! don't forget to look out for the birds too - take some bins. The guides will try and get you some great photo opportunities - the guides from my experience were very keen to get us some shots (a little too keen sometimes!). and don't...

    trouble with a doorway photo

    well, I used my flash gun and ended up with shockingly bright images. I just wanted it to look softer. am forgetting to do something really thick?! thanks for quick replys. on the plus side I am getting much better skies now than in my previous photos.

    trouble with a doorway photo

    by the way, composition etc is not an issue for these test shots - I was purely trying to get the right exposure.

    trouble with a doorway photo

    hello please can anyone advise me on where I am going wrong with this. I have taken lots of the same shots and the aim is to try and get as much detail of the couple in the doorway as possible (not this couple as it happens but they were kind enough to stand and pose quickly for me to test it...

    weddings...big wheel...and me

    if it helps at all I've been in one of those 'eggs' and they are quite nice and spacious inside so I don't think it will feel like you are intruding too much!. goes around nice and slow. you should get some great shots at the top. I thought it only went round once per turn? not sure.
