Yes it is there, very fine engrave. I have to use my loup (the one we used to inspect slide films in the old time) . W/o the tip, well who would think of that?
Thanks
Thanks

When I first got my DSLR I got suckered into one of the accessery packages. It included a Vivitar teleconverter that you screwed on the the filter threads. It was pure garbage !! Nothing better than a big blur !! But the wide angle add on was more or less effective. Still, one big waste of money.
The one you screw on in front of your lens like a filter is a 1x, 2x ... close-up filter. A cheap add on your lens to get close up (to replace a Macro/Micro lens).

What do you all think of teleconverters? I have read that using one causes a loss of sharpness. Has anyone noticed that? or have any pictures to compare?
Thanks.
Thanks.
I have Kenko N-AFd 1.5X teleplus SHQ, use on D7100, with Nikkor 75-210mm AF d, 75-300mm AF...
AF is quick, no loosen speed, sharpness (?, nothing I see), at 210mm, 300mm. Note that both lenses' lower f stop are f/5.6 (x1.5 = 8.4) but they all AF fine.
I tested it on all my lenses, AI, AIs, AF, AFd, AFS. All work fine. All my lenses' rear lens does not touch the lens element of the Kenko converter when focus (checked before mounting)

Well, clear that a crop sensor is good for wildlife, and a FF is better for portrait photography.

If the leaders of a corporation are not comfortable with their association with an organization, they certainly have the right to end their relationship with that organization. Consumers certainly have the right to choose to purchase merchandise produced by corporations aligned with their own moral compass. I will continue to use Nikon gear and I have more respect for Nikon because they stood up for their principles.

What is a good all around Lense to walk around with a d7500 that is not super expensive? I have the kit lenses but want something better. Thanks in advance.
How about a cheap Nikkor, but sharp, the Nikkor AF 28-85 mm f/3.5-4.5. I bough the lens in 1995 after a test report from Popular photography. I use it on my D7100 . Walk around all day and feel nothing. It can take low light thanks to modern DSLR ISO, D7100 can get up to 1600. D7500 is far better with ISO.

I have been using PtGUI panorama software, but I find that it has some limitations and I understand there are many other programs that offer much more at a reasonable price. I would appreciate comments from those who have a had a change to evaluate other brands before I embark in purchasing a new license. Thank you.
