  • I agree 100%, the SD Card formatted is a very useful tool everyone should have.  I have been using it for years, and it has, on more than one occasion, solved SD card issues I was having.
  • It's a fisheye, and as such, has a huge depth of field.  Set the lens to f5.6 or f8 and then everything beyond about 1 or 2 feet will be in focus. So, manually set the focus on the lens to about 2...
  • How do you know they are counterfit? B&H prices: 62mm $7.95 67mm $12.95 B&H knockoff caps (but without the Nikon imprint): $3.95 (both sizes).
  • First, the smaller image circle of micro43 lenses would result in some serious vignetting. Second, the vast majority of micro43 lenses are focus and aperture control by wire.  Even if vignetting...
  • Not that I was really interested in a FF NEX, but if I want a DSLR style camera, I will buy a DSLR.  This is a major reason why I have zero interest in the OMD and G/GH cameras.
  • Or, you could use an LA-EAx adapter for those large A mount lenses.  But it will be a L O N G time before Sony has anything close to a full lens lineup for the FF NEX cameras.
  • For one, the difference is the size of the target.

    Adobe is a BIG target. On the other hand, a retailer is a much smaller target, even a retailer like B&H.

  • Yup, have to agree.  Last year, I sold off my Mamiaya 645 AFD digital system for the (then) new Nikon D800E.  With the best glass, any 24MP or higher FF 35mm digital camera can meet or beat MFD (at...
  • The medium format market has been shrinking since the introduction of digital. In film days there was a pretty good selection of manufacturers offering medium format cameras. One by one, they have...
  • Another nail in the coffin of Adobe and 'Cloud' computing in general.

  • Replied in Just curious
    So basically, you get a printed 'Quick Start' manual, but the 'real' manual is only in pdf format. THAT is inexcusable on a $1000 camera.
  • Replied in Just curious
    Just curious, but what documentation came with the camera? Did you get a full printed manual?
  • Or simply not worry about it, as moire is seldom a problem. For those cases where it is, you can use a different camera, or learn to use the demoire plugin. I own, or have owned 3 cameras without...
  • Actually, there are very very few lenses that Nikon has made over the years that are incompatable with the current Nikon DSLR lineup. Every old lens may not be compatable with every current body,...
  • Replied in Panasonic
    Panasonic is light years ahead of anyone else when it comes to video. Now if you want a video only camera, I would go with the BlackMagic Pocket Cinema Camera.
  • This makes no sense to me.  Would it not be more useful to know how many mounts owned, and then how many lenses for that mount? I currently own 3 different mounts, and will be adding a fourth by...
  • I will buy used lenses, but I will not buy a used body.  Nor would I buy a used fixed lens camera of any type. We are, I assume, talking only about digital cameras, right? Why?  Well, lenses last,...
  • And that is exactly why it is good to shoot raw.  :-D I have gone back and reprocessed some of my older raws from the early and mid 2000's, and it was a pleasant surprise.
  • Basically, I agree with you.  All this posturing is stupid and inane.  I tend to totally avoid any such threads.  They represent a total waste of my time. Cameras are tools.  Choose the tool that...
  • To the best of my knowledge, you cannot reasign the menu button. I agree, it is a huge useability issue, as is the fact you cannot assign many of the menu items to function buttons.  Sony, rather...
