Aperture priority metering with classic third party lens systems.

Posted by canoecaper in Metering a heritage Third Party lens., 06 March 2021 · 158 views

Greets.

Most of us know, the finest camera lenses ever made, were Zeiss (based, generally on Scott glass), Leitz for Leica and Novoflex and the Dr. Makutso designed range mirror lenses from the Soviet Union, all made from the '60s to the '80s.
All of these are full manual, generally used wide open and naturally with mirror lenses, the aperture is fixed....

Got one at last! AF-S Nikkor 58mm f/1.4G

Posted by Dogbytes in Dogbytes' Blog, 28 December 2020 · 382 views

Some years ago, I was in Paris and I happened to meet up with some friends who fancied visiting the Louvre. I’d never been much impressed with the Mona Lisa. Like most people I’d only see pictures of it and they always seemed to be a muddy brown colour. Also, for as long as could remember, all I’d ever read about it was how much smaller it was than people...

1. Can anyone recommend a rechargeable USB battery pack with a suitable voltage required for the camera (7.2V). I want to do outdoor timelapse and need a battery that will last...

Help with D 50

Posted by Hoodoo in Hoodoo's Blog, 20 June 2020 · 467 views

I'm new to this forum and not sure how it works. I'm looking for some advice with my D 50. I purchased it used a few years ago and it has worked great up until recently. I couldn't get the SD card to download on my computer and then the camera seemed to have no memory. I suspected a bad card so I bought a new one but now I have no display on the back of t...

D5500 with Sigma DC 18-200 lens

Posted by GatOsoyoos in GatOsoyoos' Blog, 02 June 2020 · 488 views

I have a D5500 and purchased a Sigma DC 18-200 lens. I just rec'd it and tried it but the autofocus does not seem to work. Does anyone have any ideas. Every time I start to use it the autofocus section of the set up menu greys out and gives the message: This option is not available at current settings or in the camera's current state. I have checked and...

D5300 GPS NML_28A.ee file

Posted by pedro in pedro's Blog, 23 May 2020 · 472 views
d5300, gps, nml_28a.ee, update

Does anyone know if Nikon has stopped supporting GPS in the D5300 using a NML_28A.ee file? Nikon support states sorry, they don't have a current one and can't tell me if there'll be another. Without that GPS is not accurate.
or
Does anyone know of another way to get GPS functional on D5300 without having to replace that file every 2 weeks.

D750 Err or fEE Error Messages

Posted by wildwilli in wildwilli's Blog, 06 April 2020 · 523 views

Just wondering how many folks out there with D750's get these Err or fEE error messages. What if any fixed it or did you have to send it in. I've seen quite a few of them but where I work we have over 650 D750's so it's hard to figure out if this is an inherent problem or if the Students are just too hard on the gear.

Posted by Devinjames123 in Devinjames123's Blog, 02 April 2020 · 515 views

Please Help.

I've had my greatest camera I've ever owned in my life, a Nikon d5600 bought for me 2-3 years ago as a birthday gift. It came from online. And I was using it for about a year or so, when it just stopped working altogether. Just randomly stopped working. No drops, spills, cracks, NOTHING. Also, a green light blinks twice and then stops. I tr...

d850 connectivity issue

Posted by bbarringer in bbarringer's Blog, 02 March 2020 · 490 views

I have been shooting via Capture One, but recently my 850 is not being read by my computer or software on two different Macs. Has anybody ever had similar issues with their cameras? Do we think its a camera port issue, tether issue, usb computer port issue?

Sooo ... am going to Africa this summer for the Great Migration, and then trekking with the mountain gorillas.
