Digital Back Manufacturers
Ok, good try. I had two Mamiya AFD 645 cameras and only the film backs, I lusted after one of these digital backs, but couldn't aford it, finaly in frustration I traded both cameras and lens (50, 80 and 150) in for a Nikon D7000. I miss the Mamiya cameras, but love my Nikon D7000.

Thanks for the info. Unfortunately that digital back only works on Mamiya's 645 camera, not on the Mamiya Universal which I have.

Still expensive but not as much as the full camera.

There is no argument, if you like to shoot in JPEG and that satisfies your needs then there is no need to shoot in RAW. I like the artistic effects and do a lot of PP that is why I shoot in RAW. Few more examples which are heavily processed.

I shoot JPEG all the time and just love the fact I can download, and process in minutes. With so many people shooting and Shouting shoot in Raw. I just want to hear a good argument for me to come over to your side. I want someone to show me that the benefits out weigh the headaches. In my Opinion Raw has a better chance of turning out bad than good. After all the processing is in your hands. How can the average photographer process a file better than a Computer?? And if I want to add my tweaks, just go from the JPEG file. I should mention that I never process the original file and always have that to fall back on.

You can't blame the camera or RAW on this, it is my interpretation of what I see (I am 70% color blind) and if you wern't such an asshole you would appreciate that. It so happens on this picture I sent it in to Digital Camera and recieved praise for it. And by the way focus is not off, I blew it up to 198% and focus was on.

Are you trying to be argumentitive, no one bashes JPEG for even after processing RAW it must be turned into JPEG to use the picture.

Is it only a Nikon/Canon world?
Leica has a good reputation above Nikon and Canon, but it's just to dam expensive.

The main reason is these are the two most versatile value-for-money companies for aps-c and full frame. If you were to go into medium format or larger format Dslrs, these two names wouldn't even get a mention.

The quality is in other brands like Sony, yes, but they don't have the broad range of the other two.

These two companies also have had decades to build up their profiles and audiences. Compared to other companies of their age (eg hassle lad, Leica), they're a more "budget" option.

That's what I think, anyway - just my 2 cents...

Looking to Buy a macro lens for Nikon D7000
I would say no, look at the picture I posted here, the 105mm macro was mounted on a Nikon D7000 effectively making this a 150+mm lens.

To add to what I said earlier, if you can afford it stay in 100mm or possibly consider a used Sigma 150mm but not the one with Image Stabilization because I have read that it is not as good as the older lens... You will appreciate the added working distance of the longer lens and they produce a more creamy background blur that helps your subject to stand out.. I would avoid a 180mm marco lens as my first macro lens because they are much more difficult to work with.

I love Sigma, but a 150mm on a crop sensor camera is equivalent to 225mm. Isn't that a bit long for macro - just asking as I haven't done any real macro yet.

Looking to Buy a macro lens for Nikon D7000
I have the Nikon 40mm, 60mm and 105mm, out of all of them the most used is my 105mm lens. The two pictures attached are with the 105mm standing 4 feet from subject and the 40mm shot I was 10 inches from subject.

Taken with the 105mm


Taken with the 40mm
