Hi all, first of all I apologize if this is not the right place to post this topic, just be nice I am new

I have a D7200 and would like to get a L-plate for landscapes and panoramas.

I am not able to try them, as they are not available where I live (and if they would exist, they would be at least double the price). So that's why I am looking for UHHs that own a D7200 and any of the L-plates available.

Based on my review there are three categories:
- Custom made ones, where RRS and Kirk would be the contenders, but that means around USD 120 + shipping
-no need to spend a fortune. inexspensive ones on amazon that work great, have two for over a year with no problems..less than $50 Known brand universal one, where I guess the best option looks like being from Three Legged Things at around USD 50
- Cheep universal generic brand ones, where there is a wider range of prices but will probably average at around USD 50

From past experience with buying universal models and/or generic brands (not for L-plates but for other accessories) sometimes is a great option and sometimes is a very bad one.

So, how has been your experience with the one you have?
I am interested in fit, usability, constructions, how practical/impractical has resulted, etc.

Thanks!

If I was shooting in a Studio or Landscapes I suppose I would go back to Medium Format,,,if Portraits or Sports or Wildlife probably Full Frame followed closely by Crop Sensor Cameras,,,for Travel and Fun and Hiking around all Day,,,Definitely Micro Four Thirds,,,followed closely by Bridge Cameras,,,Here is My Fuji XT2 with grip and the 1.4 Teleconverter and 100-400 or 210-840mm Lens,,,My Rental from Lens Rentals Panasonic G9 with the 100-400 or 200-800mm Lens, Wife and I leave tomorrow for Grand Island, Nebraska for the Sandhill Cranes, Ducks and Geese and Eagles,,,can't wait to try out the Panasonic,,,My Old Nikon 1 V2 Camera with the 10-100 or 27-270 Lens and My Sony Bridge Camera with the Zeiss Lens that goes from 24-1200mm,,,if You would like show a Picture of Your Gear and Why You Prefer it.....Picture shot with I Phone 6....

OMG, I've been muddling through the trial subscription of LR for 3 days and I am making very little progress. Yes, I've listened to many of the tutorials. Is there something one of you could recommend for a new beginner? I have managed to import a few photos. One I even love! BUT I want to import more. And I think I'm doing everything I'm supposed to but then I can't find them. Where did they go? What am I doing wrong? Many thanks! (Should probably add that I am using Lightroom Classic CC.)

Hey pp experts, I have a photo that has a white (cloudy) sky behind a complex structure of tree limbs with colorful leaves. I've looked at a dozen tutorials on changing sky color (to blue) but every one uses a mask from another photo employing erasing or painting to get around foreground objects. This, if not impossible, would take a year (for me) with this photo because of the complex tree structure with lots of sky showing through between leaves and limbs.

I would think there should be a way to isolate part of the photo to be changed and then just adjust/change one of the colors in that part; in this case the white sky to blue but I have not been able to find a tutorial that shows how to do that. I'm using Luminar, but even a photoshop tutorial may help as I may be able to translate the method to Luminar.

Thanks in advance for any helpful answers.
