first clean the contacts on both body and lens. There's  probably better ways but I use a standard pencil eraser to remove any light oxidation.   I think there's a product called Deoxit that people ...

it seems to me that most future lenses will be AFP and also the current 70-300 DX AFP is also a pretty nice lens too.  So at some point it will be several lenses you wish you had a 3300 for.

I remember the early ILC days and waiting to see what Nikon was going to do. That initial V1 price was a real buzzkill. I've ignored it for all these years until I stumbled on a V1 with lens for...

canon's is better suited to action.

Spiritually, Canon's 28-300 is the closest there is to what you ask for.  I know some photographers who do very good work in NASCAR with that lens alone.

also, I solve that problem by using 2-3 cameras. with 3 cameras I have a 17-35 around my neck, 70-200 left shoulder, 200-500 right shoulder

Here's something like what you ask about. It's meant for approx APS-C sized sensors and is 44,000 dollars. For Canon Cinema cameras.  It might cost double that for FX sized sensors. https://www.bhp ...

as the range and lens size increases it gets increasing outrageous and difficult to make happen. I suppose this is possible but would probably be much larger and wider and thus expensive than could ...

Subjectively it felt more comfortable to use the D3s'. Objectively the D500 had a slight edge on focus, but about a stop less usable at high ISO where I live most of the time. Obviously on paper ...

If that were converted to US dollars that would be a bit high, but I do not have a good feel for the European market.  If you have a way to look at other transactions or to follow it for a while ...

Ive done it quite a bit and sometimes they are a little slow to register it in the system.

there is not.  I wish there were, I'd select that option every time.

I had a really nice 20-35 and 35-70 until 2003 when I got a 17-35 and 28-70. Had I known how much I'd be spending on repairs on those two lenses (1200 dollars over 14 years) and how little I'd use ...

The mirrorless Samsung Galaxy NX had Wireless Data, I think LTE built-in. Right idea but I found it too big for casual use, and not robust enough for professional use.

Or just no filter, but god forbid that.

the lens is fine.  I find it a little soft wide open in corners. But a problem.  The AFS motors in this (and the 28-70 of that generation) are not very robust.  I had to replace mine after 6 years ...

There were two and now one maker of XQD.  Its a good design AFAICT, fast and no pins to bend but def need more makers.

It would be useful IF moving on to a D4/D4s/D810 or the D5 with CF.  Otherwise, yes it would be not necessary to choose the fastest cards as the D3/300 can't take full advantage of them.  OTOH I ...

I have been POURED on with a 600/4 400 2.8 and 70-200 2.8 and not had this problem.  Maybe freak drop got in.  Maybe 70-200/4 just not weather resistant.
