#15074 Q&A Thread for D610 Giveaway

so did we find out whose odds were in favor? I haven't seen any activity since last night...




#15018 Q&A Thread for D610 Giveaway

Posted by SchranzPhotogFilm on 02 February 2014 - 01:14 PM in Official Contests and Events

Last post I saw from Adam yesterday said he was still validating entries.  I guess some folks claimed certain entries that were not really earned.  Sounds like he's trying to make sure that the drawing is fair and folks don't win by claiming extra entries.  As noted in the math, not a high chance for any of us, but I'm fine with whatever delay is required to make sure it is as fair as possible for all!

May the odds be ever in your favor!




#14956 D5300 or D7100

Posted by SchranzPhotogFilm on 01 February 2014 - 06:04 PM in Beginner Questions

While the d5300 looks awesome and has the gps and wifi function...ask yourself...will I be shooting video? If you said yes to that, you may want to look at the d5300 a little more...while the d7100 has amazing functions for it just as well, the d5300 has 1080p at 60 fps as well as a rotating screen (something I wish the d7100 had). While all of the specs matter in each camera, I think I'll be purchasing myself a d7100 at the end of this month, mainly because it has some better features such as a BUILT IN FOCUSING MOTOR, not that you need one. But you can use older AF lenses which will save your wallet and your camera some much needed money. The more customizible buttons is another thing thats really interesting me in it as well....oh not to mention the 51 focus points and 15 cross points...fantastic for wildlife and sports photography....I know what I'll be purchasing...




#14955 To prime or not to prime. That is the question?

Posted by SchranzPhotogFilm on 01 February 2014 - 05:58 PM in Beginner Questions

I have my 35mm 1.8G lens and absolutely LOVE IT! I hardly will even use a different lens, I almost wish that the d3200 would come with it, it really teaches beginners how to use a camera. Not sure if this helps, but hope it does.




#14954 Introductory Giveaway: Win a D610 or D7100!

Posted by SchranzPhotogFilm on 01 February 2014 - 05:47 PM in Official Contests and Events

I believe it just means that if you had 100 posts, you could get more entries in the contest. Kinda like the number of tickets you buy in a raffle.

I just wasn't sure if it meant I was disqualified for not having enough entries...




#14944 Introductory Giveaway: Win a D610 or D7100!

Posted by SchranzPhotogFilm on 01 February 2014 - 04:43 PM in Official Contests and Events

Does this mean I have no chance of winning now? Because I didn't have 100 posts?




#14924 Q&A Thread for D610 Giveaway

Posted by SchranzPhotogFilm on 01 February 2014 - 12:43 PM in Official Contests and Events

 Look at it mathematically. 6619 total entries. I think the maximum number an individual could earn was 47.

 

47/6619 = 0.007 * 100 = 0.7% chance

 

Those are thin odds for even the highest ticket holders.  So, even if you had 6 entries (a minimal effort to say the least) your 0.1% chance of winning isn't TOO far off from the highest holder.

 

In short... it's really anyone's game!

Lol I had done the math right from the beginning, but I'm glad that you posted that to give everyone a bit of hope!

Posted by SchranzPhotogFilm on 31 January 2014 - 07:58 PM in Official Contests and Events

So, I'm going through all the giveaway entries right now to make sure they're valid.  Some of the stuff I'm seeing is pretty entertaining, but for the most part things look good.  Should have the winner picked out soon!

Oh man the suspense is killing me! Even thought I doubt I'll win, I still have high hopes for the one who does as well as this forum!

#13274 Nikon D610 Announced

This camera would be wonderful to have!




#13273 Total Nikon Noob ( wants D3200 )

Posted by SchranzPhotogFilm on 11 January 2014 - 11:37 PM in Beginner Questions

The D3200 is a great camera! I've had one for 11 months and its satisfied all my needs. It's not really worth it upgrading to the D3300, the processor won't make that big of a difference. You need good glass, I really enjoy my 35mm 1.8, it's basically the only lens I use these days. You can use it as macro with extension tubes or not. I'd say if you're just beginning photography, its good & if you've already tested the waters you may want to hold out for a D7000 or D7100. I know you've probably read it everywhere, but Megapixels aren't really important, I mean if you have 12 or more you're set! Not sure if this helped at all...hope you have some good luck!
