Aquarium photography tips?

12 November 2014 - 09:49 PM

Long time since I last posted! Life is busy ...

I have an opportunity to visit the aquarium in Boston this week, and I'm confused with online tips as to which lens to use. I'm shooting with a D7100 and have a 35mm f/1.8 portrait lens, 105mm micro, 85mm macro, kit lens, and various zooms. Any suggestions or tips? Nikon's site has an article suggesting a 40mm micro, which of course I don't have.

Thanks in advance!

Affordable ND/grad filter starter kit?

02 May 2014 - 08:23 AM

I'm interested in getting ND and grad filters to expand my horizons a bit in terms of landscapes.  I have no idea where to start!  I like the idea of the square types that attach in front of the camera rather than screw-ons, and I would be interested in a kit of commonly used types.  Amazon has some cheap ones but I am not sure about the quality.  I'm willing to spend more for better quality.  Any suggestions?


Manfrotto long lens support 359

Does anyone have this?  I just bought one but the box didn't have any instructions in it!  I want to make sure I don't damage my lens somehow.  I've contacted Manfrotto but not heard back from them yet.
