Marketing to millenials... Car ads used to talk specific technical specs. Now car ads are "how does it make me feel? same everywhere.

+1 for a whole host of reasons!

Cover a big event and the Nikon & Canon & Pentax DSLR shooters are going about their business quietly. But the mirrorless people keep approaching the DSLR people to preach... "you know you really ...

Mr Kramer's post was a breath of fresh air. (Photo forums are nasty places generally. This very much includes DPreview. )

Nope. Perry is right. DPR is a gear site, where the number one activity by far is the debate over the minutiae of camera specs. Photography itself comes rather a distant second.

I find the UV filters a LOT harder to clean than a lens. (The sheer number of various coatings they put on those filters now). Anyway, I carry a blower and a cloth & little 1/2 oz lens cleaning ...

I have a D810 and in live view, this did not work. Only by changing the aperture could I tamp down that overly-bright live-view image. I will remember the "ok button" suggestion from another ...

Plastic lens mount. A non-starter for me.

hchen, What i didn't mention in my last post, but I should have, is something the manual doesn't mention either. If you are using focus tracking with lock-on and the focus dot moves off your ...

That a3 setting is about not letting things which momentarily come between the camera and the subject interfere with the focus on the subject. There is no "locking on" going on as far as I can ...

Simon, this is tough to hear. I'm sorry for your situation. I'm a retired pro sports shooter and it's the one thing that kept me from pulling the trigger on a D500 - the low light in dark venues. I ...

Or... set your cameras to  Co-ordinated Universal Time (UTC) and you'll never have to adjust them again.
