  1. This is a long video - over an hour, but the last 5 minutes or so he is reassembling the lens. You might find something useful there.
  2. Hello all, I came across three rolls of Fujicolor Superia Reala 100 in the back of my fridge. They expired in July of 2011. I am going to try it out, and was wondering if anyone had suggestions for exposure, processing, etc ... . The last time I processed film, I brought it to my local Costco, but they don't offer film developing now. I was thinking about trying a mailer from Dwayne's. Any thoughts on that? From what I can remember, the film has been in the fridge most of these past 9 or 10 years - Thanks for any advice -P.

    Auto ISO

    <p>Nick -<br> On the D7000 auto does not show up as an option when you hold down the ISO button and turn either the front or rear control dial. I am glad Nikon has changed that in the D7100/d7200 cameras. I find it frustrating when I want to turn it on and off quickly - so, most of the time I leave it off and change ISO manually.</p>

    Auto ISO

    <p>I wish there was an easy way to turn auto ISO off and on. On the D7000 its deep in the menu settings - I have it saved to my menu which I pull up with the fn button, which make it easier (but that button is getting cluttered now) . I wonder why, when setting ISO manually, after you pass the highest or lowest setting auto doesn't turn up as an option? </p>
  5. <p>The Picasa photo editing software from Google has a menu item for shutter count too.</p>
  6. <p>Here is a better version of my earlier day lily. I made the first one too small <br> Is there a way to delete the other photo?</p><div></div>

  8. <p>Its Orange Day Lily season in Southeastern Mass. They are beautiful this year. <br /> In shade:</p>
  9. <p>Bill - great shots! Are you using that 24-35 on a digital body? (if so which one?)<br> or are you using film?</p>
  10. <p>"Point taken Shun. Actually about the only time I wish I had direct in-camera access to the shutter count is when I am in the store checking out used cameras."<br> When buying a used camera checking the shutter count is about the most frequent advise peope suggest here. In a camera store checking cameras it really isn't possible to take a photo and download into a computer to check the exif data<br> A simple menu item- it doesn't have to be a dedicated button or a display in the viewfinder. Somewhere it could be checked when needed. With the vast amount of options and settings available in camera menus these days, I can't think it would be in the way.</p>
  11. <p>I just recently discovered the Picasa photo editor - a free download from Google- will show shutter count. Select View from the pull down menus and click properties. Shutter count is way down on the list, but its there.<br> Just check your most recent photo and that should give shutter count on the camera. <br> I agree, it seems silly you have to use third party software to find this. I wonder why the shutter count is not displayed somewhere on the camera?</p>
  12. <p>I'll add another vote for a D810. I don't think you gain much with any of the bodies mentioned beyond what the D810 can already do. <br> I shot an event once back in the film days with two different bodies and flashes. Lucky for me, I knew them both inside and out, but I still made a few mistakes. It will make your life easier to have an identical camera.</p>
  13. <p>Two years ago, the D7000 was heavily discounted before and during the holiday season (I think they started with big discounts on Black Friday). The D7100 was introduced in February 2013. <br> I am going to guess Nikon is going to follow the same pattern this season and we will see a D7200 early next year. <br> It would make no sense to introduce a new model this close to the holiday. They are trying to move the remaining D7100 inventory now - before any new model is released. <br> anyway, the prices on the D7100 has come down quite a bit- and some remaining d7000s have shown up for sale for less than $600. So, there are some pretty good options out there - unless you think the D7200 will have some feature you can't live without. (and really what could that be, to make it that much better than the D7100?)</p>
  14. <p>Just some questions to consider:<br /> Does re- mounting the lens on the camera body help? Possibly a poor connection between body and lens<br /> Does this happen in all exposure modes? <br /> Is there a menu setting on the d3200 that allows you to use the aperture ring on the lens, instead of the dial on the body? If there is I would check that. <br /> is the aperture ring actually moving out of the locked, f22 position?</p>
