Thanks for responding. I’ve seen Punch. It doesn’t have the functionality I’m looking for. I need to be able to use actual photos of a home and add furniture and/or accessories, landscaping, etc. Architectural or CAD programs require you to generate a 2D floor plan as opposed to using the actual home photos. If anyone has any suggestions I would greatly appreciate it.

I’m a realtor who does my own professional photography and looking to add virtual staging. I know there are services that will charge per photo but I’m looking for software I can purchase and add virtual furniture and accessories. Does anyone know of existing software that allows this functionality?

If you don't see the red flags then maybe you are naive or maybe you're the OP's Mom lol. If you don't get that some of us simply felt compelled to call attention to the obvious high potential for shenanigans on this post then so be it but let it go before you have an aneurysm.

Like I said, we have each other's backs here on the Hog. That's what separates us from the "other" sites you mentioned. You're certainly entitled to your opinion but so are we and if that's a problem for you then no one is forcing you to return.

If this were legit the seller would accept PayPal. We have each other's backs here on the Hog so sirens go off and scam alert flags go up when cash only offerings like this goes up. Take that weak ass bs somewhere else.

You didn't say if you were a casual photographer, a serious hobbyist or a pro. If you're a casual photographer or somewhere between that and a serious hobbyist you can buy 4 3rd party grips for the price on one OEM. I am a part time pro and have had a Pixel brand grip on my D800 for 3 years with perfect results. It doesn't have a light weight feel so maybe it's better made than some of other aftermarket grips. All I know is that it's help up perfectly with quite a bit of use and I'm glad I didn't spend the big bucks on the OEM grip like I wanted to.

Nice to see some of us old time photo bugs are car guys too. I have an original 66 Tripower GTO in my garage. All I have to do is find the time to finish the resto.

I'll take the Nikon battery if you'll accept 20 with shipping. You can send it "media mail" for a couple bucks in a small padded envelope. Please pm me at mtrunz@yahoo.com.

New to the Hog and am in awe of the knowledge being shared here. I am newly retired and am returning to a hobby/interest and would just like an honest opinion. Is the Nikon 5500 a good starter camera....pictures will be mainly animals, flowers, sunsets and people. Thanks

*****************
Hi,

Like some others, I do not like the term “Starter Camera”. Think of it this way, a person starting an apprenticeship as a car mechanic does not go to the dollar store to get some “Starter Tools”. They buy quality tools for the work they will be doing.

You have shown a preference for Nikon. Lens (Glass) is normally camera make specific and if you get a Nikon Camera, you will probably stay with it.

There are other cameras. As you will read here on the Hog, there is also the Canon camera - and a lot of semi-serious leg pulling about which is the better. Both make good cameras so it is more a personal choice based on feel and how it handles.

Just coming on the market are the new “Mirrorless Cameras”. It would be wise to take a look at those Go to a camera store and try some out.

We are coming up to Spring and camera clubs will be going out on “photo-shoots” Join a club. Most members will be pleased to show you their camera and let you try it out. (Take your own memory card ). While you can get a lot of good advice here on the Hog, one of the best ways to learn is to take a photography course. Check your local school board or college. Some camera stores - such as HENRYS in Canada - run courses.

An important factor is “how much do you want to spend”? Getting a cheap so-called “starter camera” then later getting another can easily go over your budget.

Points to consider: Using Nikon as example but look for these points in any DSLR.

The D5xxx series use a mirror system for the viewfinder. It only gives you ~ 95% of the picture.

The D7xxx series use a pentaprism. It gives you the full picture and is brighter than the mirror system.

The early D5xxx series used an antialiasing filter in front of the sensor (the recent ones do not). Check._

The D7100 - series do not have an antialiasing filter (Gives a sharper picture)

Current lens have focussing motors built into the lens. Older ones do not so need the camera body to have a motor.

The D5xxx series do not have a focus motor:

The D7xxx series have a focus motor.

Some sound advice overall but the mechanic's tool analogy is a bit flawed. Buying the 5500 more like buying a set of Craftsman tools which will serve him well for years to come rather than spending twice as much for Snap On tools that won't do the job any better for the intended purpose. I don't think the OP is going into professional photography so the 5500 will take excellent pictures for any hobbyist and even in some professional settings. Certainly an FX body is better than the DX but the average hobbyist and even occasional professional can produce stunning photos with the 5500 and some quality glass.

I just ordered a refurb 5500 for my daughter directly from Nikon. They had a sale with free shipping and 10% off all refurbs. It was supposed to have ended on the 20th but check it out as they may have extended it. She picked up the 5500 kit with a 18-55mm lens for 503.96. I don't think you'll beat that. They had quite a selection of additional refurb lenses to choose from as well if you want to add on.

I'm interested in seeing pics and shipping cost to 14120 zip. Are these AF lenses? What camera were they originally purchased with? Do you have original boxes, lens covers, etc? Are both in good working order?
Please PM me with answers. Thank you

Both are top quality cameras. You should get your hands on both if possible. Spend some time exploring the menus and button placement to see which you like better.

Find as many reviews as you can on both and see which nuances and strengths of each suit your shooting style/needs best. I chose my Nikon D800 over a similar Canon model because it suited my needs best but I'm sure many others chose the Canon because it suited THEM best. There's no wrong answer so take as long as you need to decide.
