+1 Have fun! I'm here fixing rust spots on my car today. :-( Lol. Take care and Happy Shooting! :-)

I'm a digicam junkie, so I really enjoy playing with different types and brands of cameras. I also like marketing, so I find it interesting to see the strength and weaknesses of the different ...

+1 I've got an older Pentax ist DS that I really enjoy using. I picked it up used to use with the manual focus Pentax lenses my dad gave me. I like the Pentaprism viewfinder in the DS series. I ...

+1 Thanks for taking the time to reply! Greatly appreciated! :) Yes. That green button got added after my Pentax K100d. What does that do? Is that something similar to the snap to program line that ...

+1 That's the thing, I guess. It's all personal preference. IMHO nothing wrong with that. I'm not saying brand A is better than brand B. Just saying that based on using the cameras, I prefer brand A. ...

+1 The last film camera I used was my sister's Pentax K1000. I actually still remember using it that day. I've scanned in the images. LOL. I really miss that match needle meter. It looked so ...

+1 And cars. Why do we spend so much time figuring out what car to get? LOL! For a lot of us, it mainly just gets us from point A to point B with the ability to carry varying amounts of junk! LOL. :) ...

That is one thing I noticed about my D7000 and D750. The strange thing is . . . on my D5100, I can change the function of the "FN" button, which is right under my left thumb, to be a dedicated ISO ...

+1 I was / am kinda the same way. For used cameras I pick up, I pick them up to play with. I kinda enjoy figuring out how to get a "keeper" with whatever camera I have at hand. But as I was kinda ...

Nikon. +1 I've had Pentax, Nikon and Canon. I actually had all three brands with 6MP sensors at the same time. I was given the Pentax K100d by my dad along with his old manual focus lenses. I ...

+1 I was looking at that camera (and still am) since it is water-resistant. I would love to get one of those with a water-resistant lens for our camping trips, or simply to not have to worry so ...

IMHO, yes. I've had quite a few dSLR cameras. I'm an antiquated dinosaur. LOL. I do have a mirrorless (Pentax Q), but its small sensor puts it more as my fun toy. I was given a dSLR by my dad when ...

Thom Hogan wrote about this back in 2013. :) http://www.dslrbodies.com/newsviews/february-2013-nikon-newsvie/last-camera-syndrome.html I read that article about the time I had upgraded my Nikon ...

+1 +1 When my wife and I used to volunteer to take pictures at our club's gymnastics competition, we would be firing off our cameras at the same time. If the times were different, it would make ...

I kept my D5100. I had sold my D70s and Canon 10D to put money towards getting it. I got it to get to at least iso3200 to chase my daughter around at cheer and gymnastics. (D70s only went to ...

I have multiple dSLR cameras because I am a digicam junkie. But also because I am starting to get paid. When being paid, I bring 3 bodies. But for personal stuff, like vacation, I often just take ...

From what I've seen, I get the same impression. :) +1 Yes. Absolutely! LOL. Take care & Happy Shooting! :)

No. Please don't tell that to Pentax! LOL. At least, not until I can upgrade my Pentax dSLR to one of the WR models! LOL. The WR in the lower end models is what I am interested in with Pentax. To ...

Yeah. But at the same time, I would think the waterproof capability of a dedicated compact camera may be better than most cell phones. (Although it remains to be seen how waterproof the iPhone 7 ...

+1 But the SB-600 doesn't have that mode. But, yes . . . the SB-800 does. :) I actually used to do the auto-thyristor mode on my Pentax AF540FGz flash unit when I used to use it on my Nikon D70s ...
