Hi all Big problem with my Nikon 85 1.8 AF D. I tried it on a D90 and a D7000 and it is not nailing focus on any shot it seems. It confirms as focused in the camera but every shot is slightly blurred. Is there any way to fix this? I bought it secondhand cheap. Now I think the seller might have...

In a word - Wow. If you don't have one, do yourself a favour and try one out. I was a little bit intimidated with the idea of using a manual focus lens, but I'm glad I decided to go for the cheap investment. I bought them as I don't have any 'fast' short telephoto lenses and didn't want to...

Hi all, I am getting started in the world of digital photography and once of the tips I have been told is to get a decent tripod. So I have invested in a Manfrotto 290 tripod with the following head: I cannot work out how to attach my Nikon DSLR to it though with the red "lug" on the plate...

Actually I'm from Kent, which is actually London's back garden! Though I did grow up in London. Anyways.... Hi guys and gals, my name is Wes and I'm a 39 year old father of five (yes 5). I live with my wife and 3 younger children 2 of whom (my 10 yr old daughter and 11yr old son) are both as...

Hi all! I bought my first DSLR camera not long ago (Nikon D5200) and I've been trying out different modes and settings. My photos just don't seem to be as sharp as I was hoping for my first DSLR. I've seen pictures taken by other people with D5200's and I know this camera can produce great...

Hi, What made you do it? Did you find a lens (I'm guessing the 56mm) that compensates enough to eliminate the crop? What sort of thing do you shoot? Any regrets? What were the pros and cons of the move? I'm asking people who moved rather than have it as a second system as they had hard...

Hi there, I'm Martin Tosh. I'm a newbie here so apologies if this is the wrong place to pose my question :0/ I have a Nikon D750, I'm not very keen on the eyecup that came with it and I keep losing it anyway. Does anyone know if the round eyecup from a D800/810 will fit on a D750? Cheers. M

Hi Following on from the thread where I asked about whether I should upgrade. I don't want to spend more than 1000 euro on the camera body. I can't afford to. I see D700 for as little as 700 euro. The D600 is a bit more. Not sure about the D610. I am inclined towards the D700. What do you guys...

Hi all Nikon D5200 I need help with a focusing issue I am having. I can't seem to focus on more than one face when doing a shot with two people? One face is sharp in focus and the other is off focus which spoils the shot! I have the same issue when I have 3,4 or 5 faces in the group...

Hi there, got my first digital SLR yesterday and so excited. Mainly to photograph my kids I've got Nikon D3300 with standard 18-55mm VR lens +Tamron 70-300mm. I was hoping they would be enough as I can't afford anything else at the moment but then started reading about all different lenses and...

Hi Guys Can anyone recommend a decent entry level DSLR for me please? In the next few years I hope to start up a part time portrait photography business so want to get to grips with an SLR. Have been told that my bridge will probably do but I know I will eventually want an SLR and would...

Hey all, The small black rubber ring has gone AWOL from my D800 viewfinder, presumably from in-out the bag too many times. I cannot for the life of me find a replacement *anywhere* online, all I keep finding are "eyecups" which, as someone who wears glasses, are neither use nor ornament. Does...

Hi everyone, I am stuck a bit here. I have tested the Samyang 85 1.4 and thought it was a beautiful lens on an old SLR where manual focusing was easy. I still shoot some film and the lens would be fine for this however I also shoot digital, Nikon, and wonder whether I shouldn't get the 85 1.8...
