Thanks - that’s good to know.  MF with just the dot is difficult.  Does anyone know about the D7200?  I still have a number of AI/AIS primes.

i have a D60 which has the 3 pt rangefinder sliding bar in the viewfinder - very handy for manual focus.  I went to Ken Rockwell’s chart - he doesn’t say which bodies have the manual focus bar.  I ...

It was a flash in store sale not on their website. I had to ask if they had anything on “hidden clearance.” This was brand new  Nikon with 5 yr extended warranty. I had previously purchased an ...

I don't have the 16-80 lens and would not pay $1,000 for it new, but maybe in a kit, in the unlikely event I went for a D7500 package.  Right now I'm making do with old equipment - D60 and D80 for ...

Agreed stealth and inconspicuous for street.  I’d like a little flexibility.  Just picked up a D60 (small) and a 18-70 (non vr but at 3.5-4.5 a little faster and more reach than 18-55) both in EX+ ...

=1!  Great images and, yes, no more $3,000 cameras for me either.  Have D700 and full complement of f4 zooms, plus just picked up a D60 and 18-70 lens for  $250!  D700 is for when I have time and ...

Best Buy had a “hidden sale” on this lens about two weeks ago.  It was not advertised nor showed up on their website.  I had to ask them to check for clearance.  I bought vr ii for $325 new.  It ...

Scary.  Dangerous?  Where are you?  TexS?

You might check with Best Buy.  Their online  site says $648 for the 18-200.  However I went into the store and they did a search for clearance items  $325 new.  Needless to say I grabbed it

I’ve made a thousand “what to take” post over the past few years and have come to the conclusion lighter is better one camera one body  I’m talking about backcountry overland travel in Central ...

Old thread but I'm resurrecting it.  How, true!  I've travelled to Guatemala many times, and have posted a thousand times on "what to take?"  Just acquired a used D60 EX+ cond. from KEH and a ...

I'm still using a Nikon D80 and have even considered adding a used Nikon D60 for travel/street.

As I posted above, I went with the 18-200, instead of the 18-140.  Several reasons (1.) got a great price new (the special price probably is not available in the UK), (2.) a little longer reach, ...

My DX camera is a D80 with a 16-85 lens. I haven’t Used any of the lenses you mentioned. However earlier tonight I went into Best Buy and purchased/ordered the 18-200 vr ii new for $324. It lists ...

Thanks.  Changing the subject a little, I’ve searched and researched for a small footprint high IQ fast lens camera to replace the LX7 and, quite simply, just can’t find one.

Charro Days, Brownsville, Texas, 2/23/18.  Shot mainly with a Nikon D700, but took these two at Market Square, Downtown, Brownsville.  While candid, I did ask for permission. "Just Chillin" - ...

Still haven’t made any decision.  I like the base ISO colors from the old 10 MP sensors.  What I don’t like about the D60 is only 3 AF points and no live view (for me comes in handy for tripod ...

Will do just that in two weeks.  Leaving the south Texas heat and will be spending about a week in the laurel highlands of PA.  Looks like i’ll take the D80 and a 16-85 lens.  Used the D700 and ...

KEH is practically giving one away in EX+ condition. Does it make sense today to go for one as a lightweight travel/backpack camera. My use would be landscape and candid street, never going over ...
