AF Nikkor 50mm f/1.8 D. Very good lens, will work on film Nikons as a standard "nifty fifty" and should be fine on your D3300 Crop Sensor camera as a "short" telephoto or portait lens.

Your right,, the D 3300 has no AF motor and it will have to be focused manual.
I have both the 50mm F 1.8 d and the 50mm F 1.8 G,,, saw a test on youtube,
The 50mm F 1.8 G was a little better than the 50mm F 1.4 G lens...
I like my G lens better the D lens.. Both are full frame lens....
Look for a 50mm f 1.8 DX lens..

A6000 over heating?

Try pulling the LCD screen away from the camera body.. To let air in to cool the back of the camera..
There is limit as to how long you can shoot video..

You Don't Need A Gun To K**l People....

On April 19, 1995, McVeigh drove the truck to the front of the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building just as its offices opened for the day. Before arriving, he stopped to light a two-minute fuse. At 09:02, a large explosion destroyed the north half of the building. It k**led 168 people, including nineteen children in the day care center on the second floor, and injured 684 others.

Firefighter who held Baylee Almon in iconic photo from OKC bombing retires

I saw the building on the last day before they brought it down.
I watched TV every night to see if they if they found any more people alive.
I had friends that worked up there...

I am 75 and it makes me very sad and heart broken to see the way thinks have changed.

Battery and Battery Charger

I bought a used Nikon D 600 and it had a DEK battery in it..
DEK en-el 15,, 7.4 V,,1900m AH,, 14.1,,Li-ion.

I have never had any problem's with it... The D 600 has been checked out by Nikon, and the
Firm Ware is up to date...It reads the battery info ok....
I have read about a D 5200 that had a firm ware up date and the D 5200 would not work with a 3rd party battery in the camera, and flashed some mesg. on the LCD screen.. I have read other posts like this..
So I don't know how true this is...

This is my guess,, Nikon don't make their battery's,,, some one makes them, right ???

I have a friend that use's 3rd party battery's and if one won't charge, they send him another battery..
I have read on the Nikon site,, there is a recall on the battery's en-el 15 with a E or F in the Ser. #.

This is interesting..

D7200. Nikon battery. Wifi turned off. I will have to check to see if the sleep function is on this camera and/or if it needs to be activated. Thanks.

Check your battery to see if there is a ( E or F ) in the Ser. number..
I read on the Nikon Site that EN-EL-15 Battery's with the ( E of F )
in the Ser. number, there is a recall on them...

Hey BJ here's a tip:

If you want to reply to something someone wrote, instead of having to type it all in or cut and paste it... just go to the bottom of their post and hit "Quote Reply".

When the reply window opens it will have their post in quotes for you. Just move your cursor to the end and start typing your reply.

That should be a LOT easier and quicker.

Thank God for a second card.

I also have a D2X and had several of the IBM Micro-drives. They ended up being somewhat fragile, subject to movement and vibration. Every one I had suffered a head crash and had to be disposed of. In their day they were actually faster than the flash memory, and they were available as a 4G when a 512M was the biggest CF available. Their mechanics also sucked the life out of camera batteries faster than you could swap them for freshly charged! I believe I still have one around here somewhere, but strictly as a memento -- I would not even consider using one today...
