Absolutic

it worked very good as a macro lens for me on D7000... So I will definitely keep this lens even if for that feature alone.   But it would be nice to use it once again as a kit lens with D600

Recently picked up (coming to me) D600.   The only Nikon lenses I have at this point are 28-105D and 85 1.8G.  I know 85 1.8G will be great.   My question is re: 28-105D.    I know that lens was...

I had the phone only for 5 days but it does get pretty warm during use, my former Iphone 4s runs much cooler.   Getting warm does not concern me that much as many electronic devices get warm with...

This is the first phone that I seriously considering actually using to take pictures.  Just switched from Iphone 4S.

more like a third of the price.

Above is my moire example - the lack of AA filter with that pattern creates a moire I guess.  Here is a larger photo of the same thing below:

Great review.   Excellent detailed images in samples, I pixel peeped at 100% and they are in line with the sharp and excellent images I am getting.   Up to ISO800 excellent results, ISO1600 if...

That is incorrect because your 24mp camera is not noisy at pixel level at base ISo and close to it and u can easily print large and sharp photos and u can pixel peep all u want. Ur 8mp camera...

Well not just AF system. I used to own d300 and shot EVERYThing with it from weddings to vacations and thought it was the best thing since sliced bread. About 6 month ago I had an opportunity to...

In my experience traveling in Europe, wide and ultrawide is a way to go.  In that, something like m43 system is the most mature of the rest.   You could get something like Olympus OMD (which kills...

not yet no, but DR400 sometimes sends the camera to pretty high ISOs.  I noticed that both DR100 and DR200 are fine though

I used super macro yes

yes but that is a legendary lens you are talking about.   How much does your 58 cost?  I think a lot.    My Nikkkor 50 1.2 Ai-S was pretty soft wide open and had to be stopped down.    Canon 85L on...

I have 85L II (F/1,2) and shoot it wide open all the time and have no problems focusing it.   So F/1.2 on a crop which is more like F/1.6 on Full Frame, is a piece of cake. 85 1.2 at 1.2 on...

Nice. Which reminds me that I need to get an adapter so I can mount my 85L II on my XE-1!!!

I will look it up when I get home from work, but I think it is around ISO200 or 400, with F/2.0 I did not need to go higher.

Can you point me to F/1.4 mockup, I've never seen one.
