I use a strap from PeakDesign. I knew about them LONG before they were business, and only recently bought a strap from them. I thin it's OK, not perfect yet. If could just figure out how to mount ...

Here's the link to Nikon's lens compatibility chart http://www.nikonusa.com/Images/Learn-Explore/Photography-Techniques/2011/Which-Nikkor-is-Right-for-You/Media/NIKKOR-lens-compatibility-chart.pdf

Thanks, will do. The lens I bought is modern, and doesn't have manual override. I think more often than not Nikon outfits the DX line w/ only M -A, and not M/A on lenses. We will see.

I looked on Nikon's site, and didn't find a method to determine the M/A feature without going through each lens, thought that maybe there was a different way or a link I'm not familiar with. As in, ...

Love the pic of the snake eating the diamondback. That's a rare shot to come across in nature. Likely a kingsnake, maybe a Mexican Black. Where did you capture that image?

The Nikon lens in my gear list is very good for my needs. There is one aspect about it I don't like, the lens cannot be focused when its switch is turned to A for Auto. This means I'm constantly ...

Yes I completely know the blur is subjective. However I wasn't sure if certain types of blur require a certain type of ND. I perhaps didn't make that clear. I realize the level of ambient matters, ...

Thanks for this. I honestly hadn't considered how much blur I wanted. I will have to consider this. There's the 'typical' water fall, with blur that makes the water look like it's begin poured sorta. ...

Thanks for this. When I wrote "overexposed", it was an understatement. The image was pure white. After some tinkering I finally saw SOME semblance of real life, but not a picture, it was then ...

Thanks for this suggestion. I had thought about it, but would prefer to rely on my camera, skills etc on generating the image and not my PC. I used to take images and change the opacity in ...

THanks!

The base ISO, meaning the lowest setting? Regarding an ND filter, how do I determine what number of stops the ND filter should be? Thanks!

Can I achieve motion effects during daylight with my gear? During the day I only want to point it at people walking and do a slightly longer exposure so the sensor catches them across the field of ...

Thanks for this info!

With my D5500, the exposure compensation of -0.7 does indeed work with the preprogrammed Landscape mode. But if I turn the command dial, it doesn't retain that setting. The -0.7 has fixed my ...

Thank you all for this helpful info.. much appreciated.

Yes, that is part of the issue. Before I had a NIkon neoprene strap, and didn't have this issue. Also, on my PD strap. When it hangs to my side, it's not entirely parallel with my body. That is the ...

New to DSLRs. Simply, what is this feature used for, and what shooting situations does one use it for? I shoot landscape/animal life primarily.

Mark- Meant to ask you on the above. When are you checking the histograms? That is, you take a test shot, and look? Or it's done live with your gear? I realize histograms are dialed into the JPEG ...

If anyone has found a good case similar to the one I posted about that holds the PD strap, I'd love to know.
