This debate goes on and on. Here is an example of ... (show quote)
That is one reason I shoot Raw if it is available.
Raw is equivalent to negative film regarding latitude where as jpeg is like slide film.
Another reason I shoot raw is I enjoy the post processing. Good images only start in the camera. The computer is as important as the camera.

I was defending you about what JR1 said about your spelling of lens (lense). He then made the mistake with his spelling of it's when it should have been its.
Coming from pbase I thought this forum was an improvement. I can see that it is just as petty.

Once a year I work 4 long days taking photos for a very close friend for her recital book. We take about 1500 pictures and work it down to a 150 for the book. I am going to retire the D90 and buy a D800e for next year. Please feel free to C&C.
You are like a farmer: Outstanding in your field.

My wife and my daughter in front of the moon
Both are very nice. I especially like the second one. It actually looks as if she was illuminated by the moon.

Ok guys, A little advice on getting a decent used full frame camera. I have been asked to take photos of real estate locally by our largest realtor, I will need an 11mm lens and a FF camera. I don't have the bucks to buy the Sony A99 (my preference) so I need to get something more affordable, around 1000.00. Used Nikon, Canon or any would be ok,but do want the best bang for the buck. I will be shooting indoors so the better the low light capability the better.
It appears that your real estate agent doesn't know his blankity blank from a hole in the ground. There are many options.
Try a stitching program. I took this hand held standing in my drive way. With a little practice you will blow them away.

Since the waves were less than ideal for surfing, I was forced to look for other photo opportunities. These 3 girls walking along the beach made for an interesting composition in my opinion.
Nice! And the image is good too.

For a month or so I've been learning to use a new Nikon lens, a 70-200mm. I'm beginning to suspect that when the vibration reduction is set to on that I get slightly off focus results (with auto-focus, no problem with manual). Does this ring true for others? I have the lens on a 800E
The resolution of your sensor makes small issues larger. If manual focus is good and auto focus is off it needs to be calibrated. You can send the combination off to Nikon or do it yourself. When on a tripod turn off the VR.

I've already posed the question to MTShooter...
Curious how many have used this older Nikkor lens on their DSLRs,
It seems like an affordable compromise to the 70-200. Of course, it doesn't have VR. I tested two at a local brick and mortar. It is slightly slower on the AF response.
Comments/ images are welcome

One of the sharpest lens I used was a Nikon 400MM f5.6 manual focus.

The range makes it very convenient if you can live with the optical performance.

I am going to get a new PC soon. I will use it for mainly editing pictures and video. I would greatly appreciate any input from anyone as to what some good editing programs are and what operating system would work better, (AMD vs Intel) or anything else I should look for when buying my PC. I am hoping to spend less than $800. Thank You
I recently put together a power house at CyberpowerPC out of California. You can spec out any thing you desire. You won't have any money left over for editing software so go with the free stuff.
