That is a fabulous picture.  I use a 200-500 f5.6, which is excellent for the money but you struggle in anything other than good light.  I would love to have a 400 f2.8.  Unfortunately it is ...

Thanks!  That will make things a lot easier in future.  I never used live view before, seeing it as a slow gimmick.  I assumed that if I couldn't make it zoom with a spreading motion of my ...

Thank you.  I must have missed those.

Thanks.  I have turned it off and it does not seem to happen any more.  I wasn't consistent.  It was an intermittent issue.  But I haven't seen it happen for a while now.

Five days ago I acquired a D850, second hand but in excellent little used condition.  I am very pleased with it, though there are some niggles, and I still have some work to do to make my ...

I discovered the hard way that you must turn off VR if you use this lens on a tripod.  It is noted in the manual but I only noticed it when I did some sharpness tests and they were awful.  Then it ...

Thank you Gary.  That is a very helpful reply.  I guess my lens flare happened because the subject of my picture was the bright light.  Following your example, if I take two pictures: one with the ...

I am in the UK so it is useful to know what the price might be to have it repaired.  My 200-500 is two years old and has been used quite a lot but fortunately the catch works as new.  I am ...

Hi, I have been using a 14-24 2.8 on my D7500 for over a year and getting excellent results.  BTW, I plan eventually to go full frame so decided to bit the bullet and get a full frame wide angle. R ...

Okay, I'll bite. Which post production tools do 'professionals' use?

Hi, I've been macro shooting now for about 2 years with a Nikon D7500 and 105mm G2.8.  The combination works very well and I am getting some excellent sharp and detailed images of insects. However ...
