Thanks Jerry, I will ck that out. I have heard good things about Luminar Neo but pretty sure it is well beyond me. I should probably even upgrade to a newer version of Photoshop elements....then buy a book. lol. Have you ever used Faststone? It does a good job for me and the screen size is basically full screen. In photoshop elements everyt hing is so small that I've had to resort to a magnifying glass on occasion.
Thanks again.

I'm just a 'low key' photographer. However I took quite a few pic at a wedding last week. HORRIBLY hot and I lost my train of thot. Usually I use the pop up flash to 'stop' minor movement and give face good tonal quality. Well I forgot to pop up flash. While pic were in focus, the tonal quality of faces were dull and no matter what I did to try and adjustment, it was not.....much better. I am pretty basic in my knowledge of editing programs. But here is my question...is there an editing program that offers something like a 'flash' simulation on a slider? ....to correct?
Thanks

Despite knowing better, I bought a used Olympus "P" series compact camera that accepts the same 4/3 lenses as my Oly SLR styled camera. I went out on a bright October day and could not see a thing on the big back screen. Fortunately, this was and older model that did not have the shooting options on a touch screen, but on a physical wheel.

Indoors, it is a delight.

Outdoors, I'm better off with my little Powershot A1200 and A1600 with real optical viewfinders.

How did the industry convince users that EVFs or optical finders were no longer needed?

You actually can purchase A viewfinder. It’s not the top quality as one already in the camera but it serves as an excellent help…

I have arrived at the point in photography where my need is simply capturing memories. No longer are high res, long reach, low light, wide angle, etc. my priorities or requirements. At the same time, the functionality and picture/video quality of “cellcams” has advanced remarkably. Their size, convenience, simplicity, and portability are hands down winners – no contest.

I may be a heretic, but I am an honest one! So it is with mixed feelings that I begin the sale of my photography gear. Everything listed was used only by knowledgeable adults, stored/used in smoke free, pet free and conditioned environments. Most use has been indoors for real estate and decorator purposes, never in rain, beach, desert, etc. All of these items have seen very limited use.

I try to be conservative and realistic with condition ratings and prices – under promise and over deliver. My 100% positive reviews/ratings here and on other sites bears this out. I price with a healthy discount off prices from the well-known resellers for similarly graded used gear since I cannot offer their warranty. However, there is also no 5-10% sales tax! All prices are OBO - happy to consider reasonable offers, especially for multiple items.

Comprehensive specs and details are available on the Nikon website – Google is your friend, eBay is not.

Prices do not include shipping which typically runs $10-$25 depending upon item, buyer preferences, etc. Will ship to US addresses, fully insured to protect both parties. I combine and do not inflate shipping.

PayPal or similar strongly preferred, checks only after fully cleared, cash in person (just west of Philadelphia).

Thank you for looking but PLEASE help keep this post clean and PM ME with questions, interest, offers etc.

I will delete items when they are no longer available. I will be posting pictures and maybe a few accessories during the day, but for now…

NIKON D5600 DSLR s/n 3019400 (USA) Excellent $450
Few of these seem to come to market from the quality resellers. Shutter count is a very low 1633 !! Latest firmware, Just back from professional cleaning, lubrication and adjustment of sometimes finicky popup flash release (fixed), Cannot imagine many better in the used market
Includes: Body and cap, Nikon charger, 2 Nikon batteries, Nikon DK-21 rubber eyepiece, Nikon strap, Unable to find box after move!

NIKON SB-700 Speedlight s/n 2261346 Excellent $200
Includes: Clip on diffuser, green and orange filters, Clean battery connections, 2 remote stands, User guide, No box

NIKON AF-S DX NIKKOR 16-80mm f/2.8-4E ED VR s/n 244180 Very Good/Excellent $425
Slightly larger, but FAR superior to the18-55 kit lens, MUCH faster with a more usable zoom range. Rarely used, like new EXCEPT the outside of the filter ring has a small ding hence only a very good cosmetic rating, Never dropped and performance unaffected, I see no dust, fungus or scratches on glass
Includes: Front and rear caps, HB-75 hood, Second HB-75 hood new in box available for $25, Generic 72mm was always mounted for protection, Front glass does not rotate to simplify use with hood and/or filters, Includes Nikon box, manual, papers

HOYA HMC 72mm UV(c) Filter New, unused $20 ***ON HOLD, PAYMENT PENDING***
Fits 16-80 above if you prefer name brand, Never out of the original case, Retail $35

NIKON AF-S DX NIKKOR 18-300mm f/3.5-6.3G ED VR s/n US6012442 Excellent $415
IMHO super zooms are trade-offs, but this seems to be one of the best at balancing performance, weight, and convenience. Easy to use a hood and/or filters since front glass does not rotate
Includes: Front and rear caps, HB-39 hood, B+W F-PRO UV filter mounted, I see no dust, fungus or scratches on glass, 2 additional hoods for $10 each, No box

Rodenstock 67mm Circular Polarizer Filter Like new $50
German glass and quality, Mounts to all 67mm threads but outer polarizer glass is larger – actually 77mm – making adjustment MUCH easier for larger fingers or inside hood, Fits 18-300 above, Retail $150 (no kidding!), In original plastic case

FastStone, been using it for years and it's brilliant...and it's free...



I have used fast stone for years. Works very well and it opens in a full screen so it is easy to view.

Hi Hoggers! I take ID photos for Colorado Parks and Wildlife and I really need the reach of the SX60 to ID raptor nests and # of chicks. My SX60 got caught in a snow/dust storm (yes, both at the same time :-( ), and it will no longer focus at all. Does anyone out there have an SX60 in good condition that they're ready to sell? Thank you!


Sorry I only have SX 40…..The 60 was too big for my hands……took nice shot tho

Hi

@Chicopee - the 7200 is (was) Nikon’s most advanced DX camera until the D500 came out (admittedly, MHO). While the latter remains in production, the D7200 does not, so if you want one, you have to find used (I am not even finding refurbs, which is what I bought, remaining).

I cannot verify Dave’s comment on lens compatibility, but would recommend you confirm your specific lens vs D7200 on Nikon’s lens compatibility tables to give yourself piece of mind.

Just wish I could justify the 2nd body. I can say I am quite pleased with the D7200. As I always want distance (sports), the 24MP DX sensor with the 1.4 crop factor is excellent. My only reason to upgrade would be the separate and faster auto-focus system in the D500. Would love to have, but with what I shoot, the D7200 is working just fine.

Good luck with your decision.

Thank you so much Dave....I'm on the fence. While the price is good, at this time, and not sure just what the future holds, I'm relunctant to spend that kind of monies. If the motor is in the camera, most likely the few lenses I have would work....but I will ck for future reference. I'm not into the sports scene....nature and landscape....love capturing a moment.....Thanks again for your imput.

It is MUCH better and not full frame so, your lenses will fit. This camera is like new. You won’t go wrong.

Dave


My first digital camera was a Nikon D 50 which I still have and still works great but the LCD on the back was too small for my vision so I graduated two cameras with a larger LCD. I am still using the lenses I used on the Nikon D 50. The motor for the auto focus was in the camera, is it in the camera on the 7200?

Come on now..... You know you want it. Ready to ship.

Tempted....yes. But I think I heard Nikon was getting out of the full frame camera business and leaning more toward the micro for third type. I have a D 3400, refurb..and several others....I’m sure the D 7200 is a far better camera than the 3400.....
