Before I go any further, I would just like o reassure 'Ugly Hedgehog' that just because an Add pops up on their web page does not mean they endorse it in anyway.

When I logged on the first thing I was greeted by was an advert for 'Fitswatch' this supposedly has took the UK by storm. Well I live close to Liverpool in the UK. I put the details in a UK search engine and guess what, nothing was located on the web. I am not saying that it's a doggy site but just trying to warn you to be careful, yes I know it came up with the Paypal payment box to fill in. Anyway it is up to you to be careful.

Need sound advise. I am 73 years old 5'3" and 130 lbs woman. I have been back packing my camera equipment around the world, until lately of course. There are occasions where I would find it getting a bit difficult to carry 20+ pounds of equipment around all day. I have a Nikon D750 and a number of lenses, the heaviest is my Tamron 70-200. I want to hear all the pros and cons of the Leica Q2. It is quite a leap, financially, but it sounds like a less exhausting way to maximize my love of photography and travel. I know there're occasion where my Nikon will be the way to go, but will I enjoy the ease and comfort of a high end point and shoot.

Not advise you asked for, but from a very very soon to become the same age as yourself, I hope that you keep on shooting what you like, I am sure you will not make any "Snappy" decisions. By for now and good luck, not that you need it :)

User ID, you ask for a up date. Here going. I ship out the lens and had to pay for it. Also I put in negative feedback on Neptune Photo inc. I did all that around 2:00 PM (New York City Time) . About a half hour ago( 5:45 PM (NYC' time) I get a e-mail from Neptune, saying If I remove the negative feedback their will sent me pre-pay mailer. I e-mail back, forget it. I want my money back. I get a second e-mail from Neptune saying I have to remove the negative feedback before the money can be relisted. I answer them by tell them when I get my money back I will remove the negative feedback. If I get a third e-mail, all bets are off. As for KEH just waiting.

First things first. Have you got a legal right to have a refund? This should be the first thing to happen, the second thing to happen is that they completely withdraw the attempted bribe that they have offered you, by asking that you remove negative feed-back you gave them. I wonder if it’s at-all possible to give them even more feed-back about they way they are treating you as a customer. To me they seem to be digging themselves into a bigger hole than what they started with. At the end of the day the decision is yours and yours alone.

I got an Ais lens from Ebay UK it was about £25.00, it just said used condition and that's all. When I got it it had fungus in it. (In the mean time I got another one from Greece for £20.00 and extra for shipping.) So I started the return of the item, the seller refused so I got Ebay involved. One of the things the seller said "what do you expect for the price you paid" and he went on to say "I would never get one for that price on Ebay". I pointed out to him that I just did (the one from Greece) and I also invited him to ask Ebay if what I said was true. Outcome he was forced by Ebay to accept the return and pay the post and packing. The one from Greece works a treat!

I agree they just say "in used condition" or "selling for a friend/relative". Some of these are genuine puts you on your guard more than ever.

Humor: Quarantine Update

Half of us are going to come out of this quarantine as amazing cooks. The other half will come out with a drinking problem.

I used to spin that toilet paper like I was on Wheel of Fortune. Now I turn it like I'm cracking a safe.

I need to practice social-distancing from the refrigerator.

Still haven't decided where to go for Easter ----- The Living Room or The Bedroom?

PSA: every few days try your jeans on just to make sure they fit. Pajamas will have you believe all is well in the kingdom.

Home-schooling is going well. 2 students suspended for fighting and 1 teacher fired for drinking on the job.

I don't think anyone expected that when we changed the clocks we'd go from Standard Time to the Twilight Zone.

This morning I saw a neighbor talking to her cat. It was obvious she thought her cat understood her. I came into my house, told my dog . . . we laughed a lot.

So, after this quarantine . . . will the producers of My 600 Pound Life just find me or do I find them?

Quarantine Day 5: Went to this restaurant called THE KITCHEN. You have to gather all the ingredients and make your own meal. I have no clue how this place is still in business.

My body has absorbed so much soap and disinfectant lately that when I pee it cleans the toilet.

Day 5 of Homeschooling: One of these little monsters called in a bomb threat.
I'm so excited --- it's time to take out the garbage. What should I wear?

I hope the weather is good tomorrow for my trip to ‘’Puerto Backyarda’’. I'm getting tired of ‘’Los Living room’’.

Classified Ad: Single man with toilet paper seeks woman with hand sanitizer for good clean fun.

Day 6 of Homeschooling: My child just said "I hope I don't have the same teacher next year" . . . I'm offended.

Brian;
Essentially, there are two important things you need to know: First, there should be a small button or switch near the bottom of the lens...not on the mounting surfaces. That button should be moved so it is next to a small red dot on the lens barrel. Next, the lens needs to be stopped down to its smallest aperture (largest F/number , like 22 or 32. That will allow AF to function. Then, mount your lens on the camera, be sure everything is on properly...lens lock clicks, etc., then go shoot! Enjoy your "new" lens!

I found this one on Nikon's site for the 70-200mm F4 VR.
https://downloadcenter.nikonimglib.com/en/products/286/AF-S_NIKKOR_70-200mm_f_4G_ED_VR.html


Hello cam.79
Thank you for that, had a quick look and sorry to say it's not the one I am looking for. The one I am after is the AF NIKKOR 70-210mm 1:4.

I really do appreciate the thought thou.

I have the Nikon 300 F4 D. I purchased it last Summer for more reach shooting my local American Legion Baseball team. I usually shoot in Aperture Priority so I use F4 when using this lens. Aperture ring is left on f32 and camera is set to f2. Confuses me but works.


Hello Carnpo,

I have copied you coments to my Mac and hopefully I will be able to try it.

Thank you for that.

Try this: Manualslnk.com


Hello davidrb,

Just went online to the link you sent me and paid for it, It came quite quickly but is the wrong one. The one they sent is for the AF Zoom-Nikkor 70-210 f/4-5.6 and not only that page two was in French. Sent them a email about the wrong one. Holding on to see what they can do.

Thank you for your help though.

First download the Manual Viewer ( https://www.nikon.com.mt/en_MT/product/apps_software/manual-viewer-2 ) for your platform of choice. Then, you can download manuals for specific products.

You're gonna love it.


Hello WJShaheen,
The only one I could see there was the 4-56, whilst I would like the F4 (non E type).

But thanks for the contact.
