Don’t get rid of all your film cameras yet

Shoot film and scan results and you have your “full-frame” camera for scenery work. Or get processing where they put photos on disk. I shoot b/w and process negatives only - just need a tank.

Grey card, you still use it, how often?

I use mine for exposure only, not WB. I trust my camera meter most of the time.

WiFi connectivity

I use wi-fi to transfer photos from my D5500 to my iphone so I can email them. Works for me.

Possible New Lens

For all but the kids, I would look toward something in the 10-20 mm zoom range.

Back up camera

Same make and model to avoid confusion and learnig new body,and keep a lens on it and use it rather than in the bag. When working, I had a wide on one and a long on the other (before zooms). No time wasted or risk of changing lenses.

I have one shot to get this picture right. Need advice!

Use the sharper lens, 35 or 18-55. Set focus, ISO, WB to manual and use hyperfocal distance. Use a good tripod and a lens hood but no filters. Good luck!

Nikon D5100...still a good camera.

I beleive it does not have a motor so lenses without one will not autofocus.

76 year OLD man needs advice...

I just stay on my scooter and use an 18-250 zoom handheld. Since you will be out in mostly good weather and daytime, just try to keep your shutterspeed up.

If you have a swivel seat, rig a bi-pod assist to the armrests so it will stay in front of you and usable as you rotate the chair. That and a zoom lens should solve many/most problems as it did for me.

Locking focus point on Nikon D5500.

Still unable to lock the single point focus point to the center position. It moves if I accidentaly touch the multi-selector wheel.

I have checked both the Nikon manual and Busch’s book and read the previous posts on this subject. TIA for any help with this.

How do you carry gear on a mobility scooter?

I, also, use a mobility scooter. Most models have available for an optional rear basket. Mine is a wire 15x12x9" basket that holds my large camera bag and more. It cost $56. You should be able to purchase one at any time.

Same here! But you must leave the seat to access it as it swivals with the seat. Carry less stuff. 😂

Buy or Fix PLEASE!

If you send it for repair, it probably will not be back in time for your vacation.

Although there have been a number of good suggestions given....everyone has missed the most valuable resource. YOUR STUDENTS!

👍 Learn from them. Maybe even find a personal trainer.
