Does any one but me use dpreview.com?

www.dpreview.com

I like this site for complete specs on almost all digital cameras and lenses available. Many of their reviews contain instructions which are better than the original manual

Whenever I have a question about a camera, I use them. I also like to read the forums. Great site, plus they have an online store with fast shipping.

Camera Strap?

Appreciate everyone's thoughts and suggestions![/quote]

I would recommend the op/tech padded sling strap. I like it because rather than using the tripod connection, it utilizes the lugs that were meant to be used to support the camera. Have them on both my cameras, which BTW are Canon.

How I Fixed Lens Creep

I have a 18-200 Canon Lens that has a terrible case of lens creep. I did a search on this site and went and bought a lens band. That did no good.

I bought a roll of Gorilla Tape, like duct tape, but it isn't. I got black and put 3 pieces around the extended lens and presto, no lens creep.

Maybe this solution will help someone.

What size is your preferred memory card

I'm tempted to get another 128gb high speed card.[/quote]

The question I ask myself when I am buying new memory cards, is how many pics am I willing to lose of the card goes bad (infrequent) or gets lost (more frequent) or if I delete the pics before I save them (even more frequent)? I don't have anything bigger than 16 gb. I would rather have fast cards then big cards.

Printer ink question

PhotoPhred wrote:

I will check them out. Thanks.

I tried the "inexpensive" printer inks from Amazon and I ended up buying a new printer. Not so inexpensive after all.

D7100 sensor problem

Bret wrote:

Ive never returned anything from B&H...so this will be my first. Ok Tuesday morning it is..I'll call customer service then.

I have returned more than one thing from B&H. You can go into your account and print out a RSA and label. They are great about returning things. You do have to pay the return shipping though. Good luck.
