If you need the weather sealing or not depends on the conditions you plan on using it, not on the lenses and camera.

Probably the worst investment I ever made as well, and I assume is not sellable.

My suggestion is to keep that lens, try it on the D850, which I suppose you already ordered, and buy a different one if you are not happy.

TTL requires too many pins spaced 0.635 mm apart. Good luck making it with your tools. 😃 The V1 can talk to the SB900 in iTTL mode but not to newer flashes. That is the main reason why I never ...

I would not waste money on that. Ok for free but I would be ashamed to sell something like that.

This is the same sort of nonsense which circulated when the D800 got released. My lenses would not stop me from buying the camera and I am 100% sure that my current lenses would perform better on ...

Nothing new. It's been possible to use any camera to copy slides and negatives but you had to flip the colour of the negatives (very simple thing) and clean the images from scratches and this is...

There are many insects which are larger than 3.3mm but the biggest problem with focus stacking is tha image size change as you change focus if you are using the focus ring. A macro slider works...

Why would you need a silent shutter with a 400mm lens? You are far away from birds and in any case, they aren't that easy scared. I guess you don't have a 400mm lens so you don't know what you...

Spot metering is tricky even with Nikon cameras if you are not aiming exactly at the same spot all the time.

Does the EM-1 have both? Even so, it should not be necessary.

AF adjust and focus tuning when using CDAF should not be necessary at all. Never heard about this need before.

Yes, of course you are right... (didn't check your calculations) never the less, IT IS A LOT OF MEMORY FOR A SINGLE IMAGE. How hard is it to understand that? OK, but it did a pretty bad job with ...

Cool down Paul, please. I didn't know you also belong to the bullying mob, but perhaps I was wrong regarding that as well. As for using high ISO for portraits... well... that's a joke all ...

One of them is 72 the other is 67 mm.

:-P :-P :-P ...and you call me arrogant... I don't care if you claim to be Einstein or God himself... the subject is practical photography, not signal processing, and as I said but repeat once ...

Right. Not only that, but you must READ and understand what others are writing before you dismiss the arguments. To start with, I commented what zzzxtreme wrote, and my impression was that he was ...

Of course it is used in astro photography... that's another special use... nothing new, the subject was beaten to death already when I started with using DSLRs in 2006. People go out, take a few ...

We are discussing PHOTOGRAPHY for practical use (at least I am). We can leave sonar and radar out of it. BTW, I am working with radar technologies within aviation and been doing that since 1995... ...

Yes, well, some people do a lot of things without knowing why... ;) Silly or not, it is the truth. The reason why you can't switch the NR off completely in any other software than the Nikon ...
