I've been watching are really like it. I like Jeff Bridges as an actor anyway, and the very first episode had so many twists and turns! Just when you thought you were following, something would make you go "Whaaat?" I believe that this Thursday is the season one finale, and that there is a season two coming.

I had 18-140dx lens on my Nikon D-7100 and loved it. I found it to be sharp, and I loved the range.

On sale. Normally $50,000. A bargain.

DO NOT STORE THE BATTERIES IN A DEVICE BACKWARDS, EVER!

Insert a small square of paper over the "+" button of each battery to keep the battery button from touching the terminal. Make the strip rectangular (a tail) so it is easy to remove when required.


The paper insert, much like when you receive a device with batteries inserted, makes perfect sense. Thanks very much, didn't even think of that. I think the McGyver in me wanted to go out, drive to the hardware store, find and select the right size washers, mix up the epoxy, center and tape the washers carefully over the buttons, and wait to see if it worked.

So my question is nearly as important as how do you solve world peace, and I woke up with it on my mind. I always like to carry the least amount of equipment with me as possible, with a bag dedicated for my Fuji X-T2 and another for my Olympus Pen-F. Everything has its place in the bag. I bought a remote shutter release for each camera, their brand name is unimportant. The design on both the sender and receiver has a button that protrudes well above the surface to activate and fire the shutter. I opened the bag several days after the last shoot to find the units back on and furiously blinking away because they have pressed up against something inside the bag, and are using up battery power. The most obvious solution is to remove the batteries, and then finding something to safely store them inside the bag. I bought some neoprene washers with the holes slightly larger than the buttons, glued them on and have probably solved the on/off issue. I'm wondering though what happens if you store both AA rechargeable eneloop batteries in the device backwards. I'm expecting that the device won't work, but will it short out, overheat, or damage the unit? Has anyone already done this by accident, and what happened? Thanks in advance for any responses.

I purchased two screw in soft shutter release buttons for my Fuji X-T2, in black and red because I couldn't make a choice. I put the black/silver on the X-T2 because it compliments the silver/black camera itself, and I thought that possibly the open hole for an optional screw in shutter release might let dust or lint in. Possibly. It does sit up a bit high, but doesn't seem to be in the way. I also have an Olympus Pen-f, that also has the threaded shutter release button. So far the other soft release button is doing nothing in the drawer, as I believe it would stick up way too much on the diminutive little Pen-f, which was one of the reasons I bought it. I should mention that I have electronic shutter releases for both cameras so it's not important that the hole in the shutter release is blocked.

I have a book titled Mastering Composition. It's written by Richard Garvey-Williams. It has very good explanations of the many samples in the book. I found it to be quite useful.

I have a Nikon d3300 that I use pretty hard. I love it because I no longer have much of a learning curve. However, when I try to shoot photos of nature or animals there is a very annoying and obvious shutter delay. This isn't a constant, but often enough to be annoying. Short of purchasing a new camera body are there any remedies? I use back button focus. I set my iso, not auto. I most often shoot in aperture mode and watch to keep my shutter speed up. Thanks for any advice.


Possibly accidentally set for 2nd curtain flash that fires at end of the exposure??

Thanks for providing that link. Being a fan, I knew about some of the intricacies of the F-1 cars, but now it all comes together. I too was getting pretty tired of Mercedes always winning race after race but this year has some promise for better racing. Red Bull and Ferrari have mounted a charge.
