Try using CRC contact Cleaner with a Q-tip to clean the contacts. I do my camera and lenses one a month. You would be surprised at the amount of dirt that accumulates on the contacts.

BTW Sigma repair is great and fast I sent a TC in that was broken and had it back in three days

I made a mistake when I sold my D300 (a DX) and made up my mind to replace it - did so with the D7100. The deciding factor was its "reach" - its Image Area is either DX or 1.3x. What I've read is that with the 1.3 and a 1.4x teleextender you doubled the mm of the lens. I had a brief demo in the store which was the "convincer" and then when I got hom I compared the 2 settings with my 80-400 with and without my 2x (don't have a 1.4). To me, the enlargement/magnification - whatever - was rather astounding. Given doubling is correct, I now have the equivalent of a 160-800mm lens. Didn't save anything that I could show.

Don't know if the D7000 has this feature or not.

Still playing with my new D7100, since I waited until Adobe upgraded LR 4. The changes in the dial I love, fast autofocus, but larger files, need better technique for sharp photos due to higher MPX and no anti-alias filter. If I was just buying now I would buy the D7100 over the D7000
Here is a site for comparison http://nikonrumors.com/2013/02/21/nikon-d7100-vs-nikon-d7000-specifications-comparison.aspx/

Cards do go bad, depending on the manufacturer many have life-time warranties and can be replaced free. You need to check the manufacture's web site for information

It depends on what you want to photograph, some times I use the Tokina 10-17, Tamron 17-35 or my 70-200., All are great landscape lenses

Take a look at Jimmy Drive $6.00/month and you can back up all your hard drives internal and external http://www.jimmydrive.com/. Carbonite only allows you to back up one external drive. I have switched from Carbonite to Jimmy Drive and am very happy since I have 6 external drives. The only thing with d
Jimmy Drive is that it will not back up drives greater than 2 GB but at the cost of Drives that is not a problem

I,m using cs6. Nice shot .That looks like an Alewives . The reason I say that is it appears that it's going upstream,towards fresh water to spawn.They are used as lobster bait in New England and Maritime provinces.Also use for human consumption smoked,especially in Maine and along the French shores in Nova Scotia. Our version of the more popular kippers from Great Britain.


You are right it is an alewife, herring run has started here in Massachusetts. BTW ACR update works in my CS 6

Are you using LR if so update LR to 4.4 It reads D7100 images. Using it now works excellent

Why would anyone think an image is just going to look its best in a 3:2 ratio? Square can look fantastic. Cropped to be a panoramic might be THE way.

OF COURSE I crop. All that matters is the final image and all this, "get it right in the camera" baloney is a fantasy. So there!

I love the freedom we have with digital. Why trap yourself in any format?

I have Lightroom 3.6 and Photoshop CS6. I NEVER use Lightroom. You will gain nothing for the money you will spend. Yes Lightroom has organization abilities but they are not great abilities. If you want organization software go for ACDSee 15. It is on sale for $24.95 right now.

I will most certainly hear from the Lightroom fans on this. Let me be clear....Lightroom is a great program and is a lot less than the investment in Photoshop CS6 (unless you are upgrading from CS5). I just see no need for both.

I cannot say how ACDSee is for cataloging, but for ME LR is the way to go, Much easier than Bridge and with collections it is easy to sort picture, yet the ordinal is still in its original folder . I use PS when I need to do specialized PP with layers
Here is a sample of my collections
