A Nikon factory rep sitting in a well-known retail store once told me that off-brand batteries will void the Nikon warranty.
What else would you expect him to say?

If you did not have your flash pop up, there may have been something like a lamp or someone's wide-brimmed hat between your light source and your subject. Changing angle may have been why it was inconsistent.

With our last annular solar eclipse there was quite a bit of activity but dispersed among many sections.
Next April we in South are to see ( weather and longevity permittng) a total eclipse.
Would Hoggers consider a single section to post and discuss this?

Seems like the Astrophotography section would be appropriate.

I too use a Mac mini with an external drive. To answer your previous question, "Command ." will automatically start a _Rejected folder on your card. It's similar to using "X" in Lightroom. I also let the settings change the background color from grey to red (like the black flag in LR). When I have several hundred to cull, I start using "Control ." and the pics advance automatically. After 100 or so, I right-click a red framed photo and send the lot to Reject. A box pops up when I right-click to warn me. But here is the good news, I technically haven't deleted from the card, just moved to a Reject_Z9 folder. When I perform the LR import, I just import the remaining keepers from the 100_Z9 folder.
***When I'm sure I have moved the desired keeper files to my hard disk, I put the card back in the camera and reformat.

[/quote]Thanks again. One last one - does the preview use up the computer’s hard drive or is it cloud based ?
quote=Grahame]Yes, it will be totally independent from LR. With your images downloaded to a folder in your directory you just navigate your way there.

I also use Fast RAWViewer, but I cull on the card while in the reader. It creates a Rejected folder. Then I simply import through Lightroom the remaining files I want to edit. Saves hard drive space. I usually make a second culling once in LR. Recently I shot 1800 photos at a skateboard event. Got that down to 110 before importing. Further culled to about 25 from LR. Edited 6 I wanted to keep. Whole process to get to those 6 took about 30 minutes. Good luck!

Hey again. Went in and saw some of your skateboard photos, Real nice. We have a brand new park they just finished replacing the old one pretty good size. I always wanted to go to the old one that this one replaced but never got there. Am going for sure now. Any advice on shooting skateboarders. Post more when you can. Thanks BE SAFE!!

I used my Z9 with new 70-180 f2.8 Z lens. 20fps at 1/2000 and f2.8 aperture, some at f8. BBF, AF-C, wide area small and human eye detection. Stay as low as you can. Watch for patterns as they approach a ramp to jump so you can anticipate. Keep shooting for wipeouts! Just so you know, I shot 2000 photos in 30 minutes of action. Culled that down to 150, then down to 27. Edited 6. posted 2.
have fun!

One of our local businesses had an invitational skateboard competition downtown. Free to the public. 34 teams from around the country came. Interesting athletes.

As the sun sets over Lake Martin, the waters turn to gold, contrasting against the cool darkness of the swamp's woods.

With fall migration underway, this swamp in my area called Lake Martin has some 200+ bird species dropping by for a few days.

How do you know this??

I upgraded on my M2 macBook and my M1 Studio - no issues yet. I have not had a chance to review all of the new features, but overall moth systems seem snappier.
Same experience for me!
