Welcome to UHH! I'm relatively new here too, so I don't post much more than comments on other's photo posts because I have to find (somewhere) a photo or two of mine that's at least nearly as good as the ones I've seen here. Intimidation is a bad thing or a good thing, depending on how you look at it.

Thank you and welcome.

Never mind, I had already downloaded them. Not sure of the version but I subscribe CC so I would hope I have the latest version. Thank you,

Lighg Room NEF question

New to Lightroom. When I go to import files it sees my NEF files but will not allow me to download. Do I have my D500 setting wrong? I can download JPEG...

I'm wanting to purchase a telephotolens for my NikonD810. I have rented the Nikon 200-500, Tamron 150-600, and Signa 150-600. I shoot Eagles Mainly. Any recommendations?

I use the Nikon 80-400mm. Purchased a refurb from here:

Copy that. Beginner in many ways but have pretty good gear. Would like a wide angle lens and thinking about witch one. Later few years from now I'll get a full frame.

This site is my favorite forum on DSLR cameras and photography. Very interesting and informative.

I live in Longwood Florida. Owned Nikon's since the FE. Currently have the Nikon D500, 35mm, 18-55, 18-200 and 80-400mm.

Use the 35 and 18-200 the most. Hike the wetlands taking pics of gators birds and wildlife. Next week going to Death Valley and Yosemite then in June first Safari to S Africa.

Thanks for all the good posts.

Probably the Nikon 200-500 with the D500. I use the 80-400mm and like it. Plan to purchase the 1.4 teleconverter next.

Trying to prepare for solar photography, and this year's eclipse!

Have you thought of upgrading your camera to the D500? Or a D750?

Best Tripod

For travel I purchased the Manfrotto BeFree. Packs up well. The BeFree Live is a step up with a fluid head which is not what I bought ... hapoy with my BF. My next tripod will be a Gitzo with a Gimbp (so?) head. But that purchasing date is a long time from now.

Test shots with new lens . 35mm f/1.8G

It's my favorite lens. Great for indoors but outdoors as well. I have a few other lenses. 18-55, 18-200, 80-400mm. Keep up the good work.

It would be great to find a reasonable refurb D7200 for $600.00. Don't know about lens prices, as they can vary a lot.

Here you go: Just took another look. Starting bid id $599.00

From my own personal experience, and if I had to choose between Rockwell and Thom Hogan about "things Nikon", then it'd be Hogan every day !

By the way ...... jccash ...... if you use the "Quote Reply" box at the bottom of every post, and especially when responding to a specific post, it really makes it so much easier for all to follow the direction you're headed.

Right on. Thanks for the tip.
