It's good to know that there could be a problem with the battery and camera talking.

Good information... Thanks everyone.

I have both the D5600 and D7100 and have been thinking about getting a back up battery. I was wondering if I should get a Nikon one (which may or may not last as long as the off the shelf one) or ...

So if all I intend to use it for is in manual then I'm good.

No, meaning the lens won't snap on my D5600 and I can start taking pics.

So, it just doesn't just snap on and you are ready to go then.

Sorry about that....

Newbie question.... I hope that I am in the correct forum first.... my question is... would a Nikkor Ais Lens fit on a D5600? Thanks

Thanks for this infol

Thanks for the quick replies everyone.  Maybe Meike is a good way to start off, but not use my zoom... just the prime I have (50mm).

I would like to explore macro photography. I have a Nikon D7100 and a D5600. I understand that macro extension tubes are used. My problem is that I get caught up in the reviews. What would you ...

I thank everyone for their advice. Will follow Dak's suggestions.

Did use a tripod. Always do.

I just had this camera in my stash and wanted to see what it could do. Used the Moon as a test of it's zoom abilities.

Ok.. next time will try what you suggested. I think the best the ISO I can get the camera down to is 100... but will check it out. Cloudy tonight so will have to try another night. Was wondering ...

I have the DSC-HX300. Took this picture of the Moon. So damn grainy. Not sure what the issue is.  Camera was in M mode and the AF/Zoom was set on MF.  Suggestions on what I did wrong beside tried ...

I know that this is an old post, but looking for one to fit on my Nikon D5600. Anyone have a reference to one?  Thanks

The list is accurate. The 150-600 Tamron is the main reason I am looking for a pan head. I don't use the ball head with this lens. I use the lens to (try) taking pictures of the Moon and birds. ...

I didn't think of that.

Thanks for all of the information. It looks like I would be better off replacing the head and going with the Arca Swiss system. Well, it's pricey, but it appears that is the way I will have to go ...
