My cards won't be in until Friday, so I will try experimenting with it then.
Thank you, so always card in slot 1, but no card in slot 2 if set to overflow.
Hello everyone, I have begun learning my new Nikon D7200, its also my first dslr camera. I also bought the book Mastering the Nikon D7200 to help me figure it out, and one thing at least so far that I am unclear about from the manual and book is how to use the card slots. I understand their purpose and how they can be set up, I would like to set them up so that slot 1 is for raw and slot 2 is for jpeg. The part I am not clear on is if I do that does their need to be a card in both slots. I know their will be times that I only want to shoot in jpeg, and for those times is it possible to just leave out the card in slot 1.
I recently bought Affinity as my first editing software, is it any good or should I get something else?
Siuri get good reviews, K20X minimum or larger for Nikon 7xxxx cameras seem like good options.
If weight and size isn't a problem for you, don't overlook wood tripods like a Berlebach 332. They are simple and robust, and they don't suffer from from the usual issues that budget aluminum and carbon fiber tripods have.
I compared cameras on Image Resource, didn't see much of a difference. I ended up getting the 7200 only because I didn't like the articulating screen on the 5600 " seemed a bit fragile to me".
I appreciate all the warm welcomes and replies.
Our point and shoot camera would completely shut off. My wife and I just got back from Best Buy, we bought ourselves a Nikon D7200 2 lens kit for Christmas.
I would rather not power it off after every shot, one of the reasons for considering a dslr over mirrorless is "if I understand correctly" dslr's or at least some can be left powered up for extended periods of time so that they are ready for those occasional shots you sometimes have to patiently wait for without quickly draining the battery. I don't know if that applies to all dslr's or in this case the D5600, but that's one of answers I am looking for.
I would like to add that I have never used a dslr camera before, so I have no idea what features are important. I would expect the performance of the D5600 to suit my needs, but have noticed that numerous people on the forum who bought the D5600 switched soon afterwards to the D7200. I would be interested to know the reason why, are their any negatives about the camera that make it unfriendly or undesirable to use. I like the cost vs performance of the 5600, but is their any "important" reason why I should consider the 7200 instead.
Hello everyone: new to forum, but have enjoyed the discussions and pics everyday for some time. I have been using point and shoot cameras, and have owned half dozen or so. My latest is a Canon SX530 HS, wanted the zoom to get pictures of birds and squirrels that visit our feeders, some are about 60ft away from our patio. I enjoy photographing other things as well like family and pets, so its kind of hard to put a finger on any one specific interest, I don't do any sports photography, but would like to do more landscapes and night sky shots. I don't think a mirrorless system would work since we frequently have to keep the camera aimed and ready to get a shot of hummingbirds that visit the feeders 20mins.or longer at times waiting for one to show up. That's one of the problems we have run into with our point and shoots, keeping the camera powered up that long quickly drains the battery. After much reading and research the camera I am considering is the Nikon D5600, but am unsure if this is the best choice. I know it has an lcd touch screen for adjusting the settings for exposure, but once it's set can the screen be turned off while keeping the camera powered up and ready to get a shot for extended periods of time so it doesn't drain the battery so fast.
