Because a friend rants about the slowness and memory requirements of NX, I've made some measurements of the required memory for a comfortable usage. My friend...
I was one of the lucky ones that was able to pick up the 18-200 VR when it first came out. I can count on one hand the number of times this has been off the...

have a tripod that was a gift a few years back .I didn't like using it...
Marilyn, I recommend you "google" the Rightstuff or Kirk Enterprises. Both sites will have you set up and shooting in a jiffy. I have been using their...
Marilyn.. IMHO, the tripod and head are NOT places to cut your costs..Understand here that at the "long end..500mm", you effectively have a "750mm lens"..VERY...

... I'll second that. I have one, and I feel the same. I don't think that I can handhold 1/15, but that may just be me. :-) It does allow much lower speeds ...
I hear you but I have spent all that I can on this awesome lens & will have
to wait awhile to purchase anything that costly.I have a little cheap tripod

question? so this 18-200? is it great for shooting Macro then? Micro? you know - closeups??? duh I'm looking at getting the Nikor 105mm....... how would...
Marilyn, I'll concur that you shouldn't scrimp on your tripod. But, for considerably less than the Kirk or Right Stuff heads, you can get, IMO, just as good a...

The 18-200mm VR and 105mm Macro are very different lenses. The 18-200mm VR is a great walk-around that can be used across many applications. But if you're...
A lot of you seen to be missing one of Marylin's points -- she has budget constraints and needs to get a quality product without breaking the bank. To that...
... Personally I would go for the Tamron 90mm f/2,8 Macro if you are looking for a good macro lens. I've had it for a while now and I am amazed by the shots...
... It's a very nice general-purpose lens (and I believe it's the "kit" lens that accompanies the D200). I used mine for two major shoots recently (H.S....
... Geren, you're right that good quality doesn't have to cost a fortune. But making the mistake of "buying cheap" to save money will mean wasted money in the...

... Another possibility(ies) at very reasonable cost are Orion's Paragon tripods (US$99.95 to US$139.95). I've been using their Paragon XHD tripod for my...
Shawn, I wouldn't lose sleep over it, my 180 2.8 (mf) has dust (lots more than a few specks, too), some light to moderate scratchs on the front element,...
Thad, I looked at the Orion tripods and they looked nice. However, they also looked VERY HEAVY. I thought my Promaster was heavy (4.4 lbs). But the Orions...
Hi! just want to ask, how do you shoot a painting/portrait with frame and glass cover? 1.) how do you set your strobes? (sb-800s and some studio strobes w/...
