A similar path here: I bought my D700 (new, end of stock) in 2012 in view of a specific project, that unfortunately faded. So it got unused for a long time (I used a Samsung APS-C mirrorless and a ...

...and I always use it handheld. With shutter speed 1/100 s even at 200 mm FL in low light, I shoot a burst of 4-5 and pretty sure at least one doesn't show objectionable motion blur.

Well, the scope for using an ND filter is to keep the shutter speed slow. But what should be the scope for having it under 'auto' control? I imagine it is there (when shooting stills!) to prevent ...

According to your test, at which EV value does the ND filter automatically engage? Or it does following some different criterion? Just curious, because I never found this happening in my RX100 III ...

Any evidence or just your opinion? If it were true, then Sony (and other manufacturers) should have SS (VR, IS, etc) automatically disabled over a given shutter speed (also considering focal ...

The only times I have got a blurry image from my RX100 III are when I inadvertently pushed  stabilization clearly beyond its capability: e.g. 1/10 s shutter speed at 70 mm FL. Shooting SS-AF the ...

Hmm... It is the same Nasim Mansurov who also wrote: "I am a big fan of Vibration Reduction (VR) lenses – I wish every lens had VR in it, because it is one of the most useful lens features for ...

Choose "P" mode (+ Auto ISO) and the RX100 (mine is III) will make a very good work at choosing the best shutter/aperture combination (almost) anytime, as explained HERE . You are telling that ...

... and where would you put the Nikkor 50/1.2 AIS in your ranking? Based on my own experience, better than any other 50 mm Nikon. Compared with Zeiss, I don't know...

This is the one I own, too. Incredible build quality and optical performance. Used it wide open (f/2.8) most of the time on concert and theatre stages with D200 and D700. Never missed a shot due ...

I got the 28-70 f/3.5-4.5, almost for free (<50.00 €!). About this lens Bjørn told: "Set at f/8, quality images can be produced.". Based on my own experience, I would rather re-phrase: "If you want ...

Thanks! Yes, it is a bit rare: less than 8,000 manufactured (1977-1981) according to photosynthesis.co.nz. I bought mine (used) in 2007 for use in 'stage photography' with my D200. Yes, DoF at ...

Another 'piece' in my little collection. 40 years old, but simply superb. No boring series, this time. Just a single 'portrait' (what this lens was created for): Portrait of a Rose - Nikon D700 + ...

Not a whole site, of course. I suppose a single page or a set of pages linked in a tree structure. As I told before I am quite ignorant about building websites. You may want to ask the Jalbum Q&A.

... while viewing a fake! You built a great image, may be still to be considered 'photography', since you only removed an 'obstruction'. And I'd advice them to trim the trees! Is it in the Channel ...

Reid, I had a look at the work in your website, and it looks really great - your Rockies Pano are inspiring! In Jalbum you can add images to an existing album of yours, and upload the changes, or ...

I have my photo albums generated using  Jalbum and hosted in jalbum.net. Of course you can use Jalbum just for building the gallery, and then upload it to your own website. License fee is reasonable. ...

Based on your lens serial No. HERE you can find which model you have and which "AI kit" is available to have it working on your D700. I suppose it is better to have the modification done using ...

... Because you shall use the lens Aperture ring to select lens F stop. You can work in (A)perture priority mode, but you shall select aperture on the lens ring. Check the "Non-CPU Lenses" section ...

Also: FL shown is 55mm (88mm eq.), that means FOV = 27°. Whereas the apparent FOV in the image is much larger. Very good stitching work! Too bad the IQ is completely destroyed by extreme JPEG ...
