funny, no one ever had trouble with this on 35mm film cameras. and as for mechanical shutter noise, try a bronica s2 or s2a sometime. now, that's shutter noise!!!
of course, you can always use a leica m camera - very quiet!

But at the time we didn't know any better. Never even tried a Leica or Bronica.

Getting rid of that annoying 'klunk' sound of the shutter/mirror made the D810 worth every cent for me.
It is so much better than the D800E but still not quiet enough for me. I won't be satisfied until they eliminate the mechanical shutter.

Not only true for camera forums and clubs. Its human nature; watch the news.

I saw that. Thanks Ron.
Perhaps my expectations are too high since Nikon redesigned the shutter mechanism and uses it as a selling point. I don't see that much difference between it and the 800E. Perhaps I disappoint easily.
I'm certainly not going to jump ship because of this.

DPR has released their in depth review on their new 50mp cameras. Interesting reading for Canon shooters.
For Nikon shooters just look at page 9 of the review. It compares shutter shock at various shutter speeds and VR on and off settings with single and delayed release.
For Sony its not an issue at all. Canon does well, but Nikon falls short with all but the D750 which still lags somewhat.
Its a little bit of work but worth the effort if you have an inquiring mind.
The real shocker is how VR impacts shutter shock at various speeds. Its not at all what one would expect. I won't get into the details; you will have to do your own comparison and conclusion.
As a Nikon D810/D800E owner I'm disappointed.

Greetings Everyone! Purchased a new computer recently and updated to Win 10. Loaded CS5 onto it. It worked for a few times, then not. Have you any idea why it works for a while then stops? Has anyone had this problem or resolved it in some way? Would appreciate your help.
Try this if you haven't already.
Click on the small window in the lower right hand corner. Then click on all settings. On the right top is a box labeled "Find a setting"; type compatibility. Follow prompts.
Hope it works.
I had a similar problem with Nikon's View NX-I. It ran for a couple of days then would not open. Unfortunately I impetuously removed the program, cleaned the registry and download a fresh copy. It won't install at all. I didn't think to try the compatibility routine beforehand. It might have worked.
After about a week back and forth with Nikon they blamed it on my custom computer ignoring the fact that it ran initially. Then they lied about it on their CS question website and said the issue was solved.

I had posted this photo some time ago, but recently made some lighting improvements. This is not a composite photo with the moon layered in.
It is a simple one shot deal. Was able to get decent focus on the moon's features while obtaining sharpness on the Superstition Mountain's outline.
Also, this photo was taken the night before the complete lunar eclipse of the supermoon.
Comments are welcomed. Am always looking for improvements in technique.

I really see no difference except for some discoloration behind the neck in the PS version. So first one.
I tried to do as little as possible. NX 2 has D-lighting which makes it simple. With a little more work both could be better.
I like NX-D best of all but it has the same problem as CS 6.
This shot was with the same camera settings and lighting. All I did was crop it.
Much too early to make a judgement on PS CC. Just fooling around for now.

I have a trial version of PS CC for the next month. Got it today and so far as I can see its very much like CS 6.
I shot a few birds (its cold outside) to get files to try out.
Same shot processed in different editors...what's your preference.
edit: The tools in CS 6 are so small on my new monitor at 3840x2160 I can just barely make them out. PS CC does not have this problem.

I got it set up. It's small but I can still see it.
I have the option to lower the res and it will still be higher that the Ultrasharp is.

A potential problem with 4K monitors is that type and icons will appear very small unless you have a system to upscale them. I was looking at a friend's 4k the other day and when using Lightroom, the type was so small it was a struggle to read it!

If I were to use off camera flash, with a receiver, transceiver set up will the old Vivitar 283 fry my 7d?
I have 2 very old Sunpaks that I use on camera and off with transmitter/receivers with out any problems so far.
They won't even fire on camera without the trans/rec.
