I have never taken a photograph of my Christmas tree that I felt captured the beauty and "magic" that I see in person. Have experimented with full/closeups, over/under exposing, flash/natural, different ISOs, but all result in flat, boring, and blah phots. Any suggestions?


Try leaving tree as it is , no decorations. And hang it upside down on a rope on the wall or cealing. Some times we hang a 6 to 8 foot
fir tree branch from it's thick cut end to the wall or top of a window ,

That is interesting, I am into knives also . I buy about 50 kitchen knives every month for $3.00 ach they are always dull
It is almost impossible to cut yourself with one , I resharpen them and resell them for $10 to $12each . They are sharper than
New when I'm finished , the only thing I can figure out is most people don't have the smarts or the equipment to sharpen themselves
Most are like new but for the dull blades . I have a lot that I know cost $36 or more new and I have no problem getting $20

I took pictures at our family thanksgiving for those wanting family or individual Christmas pictures. (They turned out great). I didn’t charge a sitting fee just the price of any prints they order. Some have asked to purchase digital copies. I’ve never sold digital files before so not sure what to charge. What is the going rate?


If it's family don't charge them one cent more than it cost you ,tell them they can have any amount they like if they foot
The bill , sitting fee what is that all about , your not some pros trying to make a living ,and the going rate shall be what it cost you ,don't

I appreciate all the comments and suggestions. I have had a house full of electricians and heating/cooling people so have not looked at emails at all. Obviously there is no correct answer for everyone; only the best answer for me. Some mentioned the 100-400 with 1.4 ext and getting 560mm. I would plan on using the 1.4 with the 500 also to get extra reach if needed which puts me way past 560mm and still only 5.6. I’ll just have to think it out.


I'm with the buyers, buy wisely and you will get your money back if you sell. if you keep it mint .and buying your own you get unlimited
Usage, that would you in the poor house if you rented, I would get the 500mm rather than six , I shoot a lot of eagles with a 300 mm
And there is so many but I have tough time getting a close shot ,but I know a 5oomm would just put me in a more keeper spot , if I go outside I see at least 10 or more in a 30 minuites drive in any direction . But when there sitting atop of a 100 foot fur tree it just won't

Asking the OP why he doesn't stay with film is an insult to you?

That's the dumbest thing I ever heard (at least today so far)

Film isn't expensive nor is it hard to find and hard to get developed or printed.


No your right ,if you compare it with more film . I can shoot 500 hundered or more images on a card and develop all of them at Costco for peanuts , it would cost a bundle to buy film and do the same amount of images.

SS319, that was such a long time ago and now with all the new technology, they are all good cameras to me. So I just want something that will be confortable for me to learn. It just happens that costco had that bundle and it looks good and interesting to me.


Your right there all good there is no need to spend more than $300 to $500 for a entry level DSLR of any make as the imeages you take
Will be the same as those taken with a $1500 or a $6000 . My daughter uses her iPhone and her images put most of the pictures I have
Seen from her friends and other source's to shame , I still use a D90 nikons bought new ,and I shoot bald eagles on the wing .I may get a
Higher iso and frame per sec.camera soon, I would get a refurbished camera for around $700 If I were in your shoes the d7200 then in a year or two when you know all there is to know about your camera and your still wanting a new one , then go for the $1500 job but buy it
Refurbished for half that , my second d90 was a used one for $400 and that is the one I use for eagles ,the lens has never been off it for five years or more ,

A better question might be, "Since I already own some very outstanding cameras (D810 and Df's), why do I need ANY mirrorless camera?


If you beleive that , I have a bridge for sale, cheep

You really need to ask for information in a better manner. The way you worded your question makes me wonder why, at some point in time, you were smart enough to evaluate and then buy your D810 and DF's. We Hoggers really didn't need to know what you currently have. The only question you needed to ask, if anything at all, is "What are your thoughts on the new "Z"? As it is, the answers you got the most were a litany of ones telling that you really don't "need" anything as it relates to cameras. If your bottom line question is, do I really want a mirrorless camera, then make up your own mind and rent one of the highly regarded ones out in the market to see if you like this form of photography. Having a "Z" is irrelevant at this point. No one here on UHH has the "Z" yet so you're only getting opinions, not real world experiences. Come on, use your own evaluative process about this in the same way you reached a conclusion about your other Nikons.

I watched the online Nikon Z6/7 Hands-on Panel Discussion (twice) as well as watched or read user reviews on numerous web sites, but I still don’t understand why I should want or need this new mirrorless camera. I currently own a Nikon D810 and two Nikon Df’s along with a variety of AI-S, D, G and E lenses. What are the compelling reasons why I should add this camera to my current Nikon product collection or replace one of my existing cameras? And if for some reason I need a mirrorless camera, wouldn’t I be better off buying a Fujifilm XT2 with a Nikon F mount converter?

You watched it twice and read reviews ,the questions your asking sounds like your a mark and cant make upyour mind ,you do
