If it advertises plus shipping you are going to be charged. They have free next day shipping on some products most likely new stuff. I buy most of my stuff through Amazon prime free 2 day shipping. I bought my Nikon D500 through B&H and got it in less than 24 hours free shipping also.
Open up irus to f8 or f11 with auto ISO and lower shutter to 1/40th for bigger depth of field. A speedlight flash will help alot too. What type of motion trigger do you use? Can you increase the sensitivity to work with the birds?
I love Black and White but usually don't see it with flowers. But this is nice. I think I should rethink this in my future compositions. Thank you.
I love Canon printers. The print quality is superior for the money. I use generic ink instead of canon ink. They work as well as Canon for a 1/4 the price. It's like 4 of each cartridge for $18.00. I wish I had bought the bigger printer but didn't have the budget for it. Wal-Mart and Costco do great quality enlargements too.
As a technician I have always recommended turning off the camera while attaching anything yo it. Lenses, remote triggers, flash units etc... There is always a chance of a static discharge or powersurging either electronic component. Also when attaching something new you should restart or power up to reset the devices to a new power on status.
I just bought the Tokina 100mm f2.8 macro. It's perfect. Highly rated by Ken Rockwell too.
I have a D500 also and I bought one on Amazon that clips on to the screen very solidly and has a detachable flip open sunshade too.
The app you are talking about comes with a sensor and is as expensive as a new light meter. I can't understand why they can't make an inexpensive light meter. They are ripping us off.
Buy a couple of cheap $74 Photoolex colander flashes the will work with your Nikon Creative Lighting System built into your camera. I have 3 of these and an old SB800 and they work great. Nikon flashes are way over priced and you will lose / damage a flash pretty quick. So save your money.
It depends on which way hes looking. And if you have something in the forground or background that you want to draw the viewer to.
The size of the sensor does not determine the amount of light a camera takes in. Its the shutter speed and the aperture that determain. Now the quality of the sensor does determine how light sensitive you ISO can go up to. But, ISO is only electronic gain and that is what causes noise. So the same lens on a full frame and on a crop sensor let in the same amount of light. So when buying a new camera look for better ISO clarity and low light sensitivity to get better exposure in low light situations. Image stabilization can help you get one or two extra stops in low light situations too. I have a Nikon D500 and love it. I can shoot in virtually no light and get an image. On a D850 full frame can beat it. Just barely.
You have an 850. You don't need anything else for now. You should wait for Nikons pro mirrorless that's coming next or wait for the D6 with the video/optical view finder and new sensor like the D850.
Changing anything on your camera should be done with the power off. Changing SD cards, Lenses, and plugging or unplugging cables for instance. The possibility of a static discharge can damage anything electronic.
Gift card because buying something for a photographer is like buying clothes for your hottie girlfriend. You will never get it right. Just get a gift card.
Hi, You sound like a guy that likes the type of photography that I do. This is what is in my bag. Nikon D500 $1500, Nikon battery grip $300, Nikon 16-80mm f2.8 $800, Tamron 70-200mm f2.8 $1200, Nikon 200-500mm f5.6 $1200, Tokina 11-16mm f2.8 $300, Nikon SB800 speedlight $300, and a Tokina 100mm f2.8 macro $300. Total $5900.00. These are new prices. You can get a free battery grip and 16-80mm with a D500 package for around $2200 - 2400. Watch for sales on this. Since you are a hobby photographer like me then save your money and buy a crop sensor camera and buy nice lenses instead of buying a full frame. The D500 is fast focusing, and has great sensitivity to light. You would have to buy a D5 or D850 to get anything better. All the wildlife photographers have gone to the D500. Good luck.
