Yep, you are right, it is a bit heavier, but I have no plans to sell mine.  It is the best 70-200 on the planet and I feel very fortunate to own it.  Certainly focuses faster and tracks better ...

Good work there! Shame on me ... I didn't even know there was one the 21st.

For air shows I generally carry 3 lenses with my D500 ... 16-80 e, 70-200 e fl, 200-500 e 5.6.  I think I could leave the 16-80 home and get by with the 70-200 for statics and crowd shots, but the ...

Another great portrait Jon! I never would have expected that the 70-200 2.8 I got two years ago would be such a versatile lens.  I had an 18-200 for 10 years, and it was versatile, but not as sharp ...

Hi Ken! I'm happy for you to have had a good experience with the 18-400 (a wow of a range!).  I think I wouldn't fool with the Tap In console as long as you are happy with the results.  I DID try ...

I'll plug for the 200-500 as well! It's the first lens I bought after purchasing the D500 four years ago. It is a great lens, especially for the money, and it is a NIKON! Warning to Sigma and ...

Hi Jon, I always enjoy your pictures and stories. I think your monkey portrait is amazing! Ingenious use of available light. I also admire your noble quest to care for the abandoned dogs in such a ...

I've never seen one, but I've got a few shots of Little Green Heron, which are similar, and very difficult to get close to as well.  I would have to dig out some old drives to find them. Lucky?  ...

The 24-70 is a fine lens, (part of the Nikon professional Holy Trinity of lenses) and I'm sure it will work well on your D500, as well as fit nicely into the range of lenses you have.  However, I ...

If you haven't gotten your answer on how to set 3D as a custom setting for bbf, the first thing you must know is that 3D must be set as the default AF mode (as if you were going to use the shutter ...

"Is there anything else I should test in particular?" Maybe try dropping it from six feet? ... Kidding, of course! My D70 fell out of the back end of an SUV when the tailgate was lifted and caught ...

Still in demand after more than four years since release  ... says a lot about the greatness of the D500! Arnie

Last year when my 10 year old 18-200 started having AF problems I decided to get a 16-80, refurbished from B&H to avoid the high price. I cannot tell it is not brand new. It has performed well and ...

Sorry ... I have to laugh when I see ya'll trying to predict what Nikon will do and speculate camera naming as well. There is one thing that can be predicted, and that is it won't be what you ...

I'm retired and not a pro, but love shooting junior tennis tournaments and Dog Agility, both of which have cancelled all events. Wondering now if I will be motivated to re-start when they do.

100% CORRECT!  There was NEVER a battery issue with the D500!

A rose is a rose ...

So it's a "spy" camera. What happens when someone catches you sneaking candid pictures of them, and they express their discontent in a violent way? You're better off being across the street with...
