I totally agree. You will need to ‘register’ or something like that when trying to download the NIK plugins - SE is obviously one of them. Then it will tell you that you need to be invited or ...

Yep, no issues to watch for. The latest firmware is a must, So make sure you have v3.0. Then read the manual and do a search for setting recommendations for your camera and start having fun. But, ...

Ah, just searched the item. Never mind.

That’s funny! I read it as a Rocket Air Blower in a kid toy kind of a way. How obtuse of me! Ok...keep it away from your kids!

Is that like the spyder5pro?

Nicely said! Good on ya mate and cheers!

Then when do you carry your heavy 55-200? It is only 70 gms lighter in weight and longer physically than the 16-55. I'm just asking. The 16-55 covers your existing FLs (except 5mm on the long end) ...

Fair enough and I love your use and description of the lens as a foundational lens. I really have NO NEED for another lens as yet. I also prefer to call it a "bundle" when it comes to selling the ...

I agree. This is something I totally agree with regarding no need for stabilization for my use! Although I do not like the use of the term ‘brick’ as the connotation is negative and undeserving - ...

You need one of these, instead of using your kids' toys. I have one and it is great. Problem is that it is so funny/cool looking that the kids want to play with it! Have to hide it from them... htt ...

Add the additional facts: (1) Better build quality (2) Marked manual control aperture ring (the kind that doesn't keep spinning)

Next time, just do a search. It is easier and will lead you to ask real world questions as there are tons of threads and videos on the lens and comparing the lens to the 18-55. I own both and can ...

Some great thoughts here. You are spot on with the 16-55 and its cost as it is a premium zoom lens with premium quality. They don’t slap that red badge on just any old zoom. I can’t say enough ...

Good on ya, mate! I have no idea what it entails to support third party lenses (I fully understand that once mounted via converter ring or directly to camera) autofocus and aperture regarding Fuji ...

Sometimes yes. The latest X-T2 firmware update (3.0 I think) was issued a supplement to the manual. A simple 10 page pdf outlining the new goodies. When it is NO, there is the general release ...

I completely agree. I carried my fully stocked backpack around for 2 weeks prior to get into shape and used to the weight. I tinkered with it a bit but got very comfortable with it. Then used only ...

I understand the waterproof part, but, am I to assume the reason for the smell proof part? I ended up using a great LLBean backpack that had so much room and compartments that I was able to ...

Single point; smallest square. Recompose if necessary, but I tend to use the AF and AE locks utilizing a ‘spot meter and focus point’ type of a method. Comes from years of using my trusty Sekonic ...

Yep, SOL or SOOL in forum parlance. Oh well, just don’t go spending too much moolah on the fancy shmancy backpacks that are out there that say they bridge the everyday use along with functional ...

Hello fellow cheesehead. Might I highly suggest you hit up the local LLBean store, if there is one in Milwaukee....from your profile. They have some really high quality stuff with lots of backpack ...
