I give up wasting my time on you. You obviously know much more than Nikon or anyone else.

I don't think you have an idea about what you are talking about. Shutter lag exists, you like it or not. Shutter lag is noticeable, measurable and matters, but may not be for you. It's really not a...

No, measurable with a very simple device. 44ms is not that difficult to measure and sense for most human beings with normal reflexes.

... but every time you use it. There is a great variation in shutter lag if AF and VR is used and the light is weak, as well as if your target has bad contrast. Also the results depends on how far...

To say that "That is good enough for me" is different to "Shutter lag is not present on modern cameras above the point and shoot class." which is nonsense. I am not talking about complaining, but...

...huh? What exactly are you talking about? I mean, if you like these images or not is a matter of taste but the rest of your comment is total nonsense. Or perhaps you were just sarcastic...

...for those who have no clue and don't have the camera.

Well, we might have a different opinion about that. Nonsense. Even my D800 has shutter lag, and by shutter lag, I mean measured my way, without AF and everything set to manual. There is no such...

Why not? I mean, a standard hot shoe adapter would allow you to use ANY radio trigger as long as you don't want to use TTL. I never use TTL in multi flash setups and I don't find that limiting at...

Totally useless values. If shutter lag is measured then you must leave AF and lenses out, as well as any other auto parameters.

Tuning a zoom is practically impossible with the simple implementation Nikon has in their cameras. If you tune your zoom at 50mm for being best at 5 meters (as an example) then at all the other...

...how often are you using your 35mm lens at 0.5 meter and how often are you about 2 meters from your subject... ;-) I would never consider using a 35mm at 0.5m subject distance unless I want to...

Usability wise the N5 is better than the N7 but power wise the N7 is a bit more powerful.

...unless there is something wrong with the camera, the flashes or the configuration. Maybe you have EC on?

...focus tuning is waste of time. If there is a problem Nikon should fix it, if not then this is a good example of why you should not do this unless you have a lot of time you don't know what to do...

With a light meter it is a piece of cake to set up studio flashes. The procedure is the same regardless if you are using the V1 or the D800. I don't trust TTL so I use M mode in any multi flash...

How do you judge a persons track record? Especially a person with very few posts ho has basically no track record at all to talk about. Remember that even a person with one single post can have a...

...I don't believe this is a big issue. While it may happen occasionally that some employee of another brand acts as a troll, it is not very professional, not highly regarded by anyone, including...

The V1 + FT1 + 70-300 may not be an optimal combination for BIF but better results than this can be achieved with considerably higher shutter speeds. 1/200s and 810mm (equiv) is not a good combo...

Currently the only option you have with that flash is to use optical slaves, or the SU4 mode of the Nikon flashes. If you set the SB-N5 in the camera to Manual mode the flash will not fire the TTL...
