Well said Nightski! You've 'capsulized' the entire conversation to the bare minimum it needs to be, specifically:
Do what you're comfortable with, and keep it that way. THEN if you are challenged to make a change, do it when YOU are ready. Whatever words is still the best by-word, in my opinion. You know what you're doing... as I always say, ENJOY!


Again well said Do what you are comfortable doing. BUT do not be afraid to change. Keep learning. Utilize all the tools that you have available in your camera

My first attempt at manual (and only at the moment)resulted in
all my pics being to dark and yet when the pic was taken the picture was froze in my view finder and it looked fine, I realise now i should have brought up the display and would have realised my settings were wrong. After reading your posts
i feel i should try again thanks for asking the questions.


Just remember the display is from a JPEG and what really helps is to look at your histogram

From Nikon Rumors
Several different third party battery grips for the Nikon D7100 camera are already available at Amazon, Adorama, B&H and eBay. Even the most expensive option is less than half of the price of the original Nikon MB-D15. Blog

You are on the right track. Learn the exposure triangle and the sunny 16 Rule At noon on a sunny day with the camera set at f/16 the speed is the reciprocal of the ISO = ISO 200 speed 1/200
Here is a basic chart and you adjust for how you want to compose the scene by adjusting the stops
In the scenarios shown in the chart below, the rule continues to apply. At each of the aperture settings the shutter speed should match the reciprocal of the ISO
Aperture Lighting Scenario
f/22 Layer of Snow or at The Beach, Sunny Day
f/16 Sunny Day at Noon
f/11 Slightly Overcast
f/8 Overcast
f/5.6 Storm Clouds
f/4 Open Shade / Sunset

LR 4 and LR 5 Beta----then finish off in PS CS6.


I agree the way to go. I have 248K files on 4 external HD all backed up and LR knows where all of the photos are located

You don't have to upgrade to PS CS6 if you don't want or can't afford it. You can always use Adobe's DNG Converter. It is a FREE utility. It will convert the D7100's Raw files to the non-proprietary DNG format. After your Raw files have been converted to this format, they will open in the Raw Converter in PS CS5.

Mac: http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=5568

And here are two other alternatives which involve less money -- get PSE11 or Lightroom 4 (the Camera Raw 7.4 update is compatible with both).

I'm not posting to start or continue a discussion of the controversy generated by the Adobe Creative Cloud release. I have a specific question that I have so far been unable to find an answer to, so I'll ask in the hopes that someone else may have already found it.

Does anybody know if 3rd party plugins (such as NIK software) are going to work with the CC version of Photoshop? (and if possible, what is it going to involve in order to install them?) If this info is out there, could you kindly point me to the link?
I'm not posting to start or continue a discussion ... (show quote)


I am using the CC now and all my plug-ins work the actual program is on my computer

Another thread of mis-information. Photoshop alone is $10.00/month and you get improvements as they are ready. The $50.00 is for the whole suite and THAT is a real deal.


Right on Plus lightroom and elements still will be able to be bought. When I upgraded to LR4 I also subscribed to CC and feels that it is worth it. Not only I have LR, PS and other processing programs but also get Adobe Acrobat that I use all the time
