I turned the camera off in midsequence of a 7 frame bracket run while running on continuous high speed while in live view. One of the replies recommended to: 1. remove and then replace the battery. 2. with the shutter button depressed, turn the camera on. I did that 2 or three times and then the flashing err code disappeared and the camera returned to normal.

My post of about Oct 5th was replied to by at least three people. That post has since disappeared. The replies led to my being able to fix the camera myself. Lesson learned; confirm serial numbers first. Thank you all!

I am by now ancient as well! I use it on 850 and 800e for landscapes and architecture. Works fine with a little help from Lr and Ps . It prints very well about as large as anyone wants. I am not going to go the Z route, just yet. It's just old and I am worried about the focusing motor. What is you opinion of the current 14-24 2.8?

I have owned this lens for about 20 years. It has been a very good performer. I am about ready to get the newest version of it. What should I expect? Hopefully improved performance? Thanks in advance.

I downloaded it as well. My trial software does not fully operate. It's like waiting for me to pay for it before is fully functions.

I used Nik software with Ps Elements until I switched to Lr-Ps CC a few years ago. I really liked Nik's capabilities, especially its ability to color B&W images. I just tried to try out the new NIK DxO suite to see if it still was good at coloring b&w. The TRY IT function seems to be almost worthless. I tried to contact them and was told they won't talk to me unless I'm a paid customer? Where can I go to get someone to help me before a risk blowing $150 on new software. Thanks.

Thank you very much. Based upon all the feedback, I'll plan on getting a current 24-40 2.8 VR in the future, assuming Nikon does not suddenly come out with pocket sized hi-res gear.

I have used an AF-S Nikkor 28-70 2.8 ED since it was introduced about 20 years ago. It has performed well on F100, D100, D200, D800E, and D850. Is the current 24-70 version sharper, have better contrast, longer dynamic range, less aberrations, etc., or cuter looking on the camera? Have I left something out?

You are right. After practicing it a few times, it does not seem much more complicated. Just different from the d800e. I have used 2 800e's for several years. Switching one from the other is a no-brainer. 800-850? Stop-Look-Listen.

At this point, it is easier to refer a YouTube tutorial entitled, "Nikon d850 Exposure Bracketing Setup Tutorial"

I just acquired a d850 after using d800e since they were introduced in June 2016. I upgraded/added the 850 partly because of the higher resolution sensor, but mostly the tilting monitor. The first thing I discovered was that the bracketing function, by comparison, is complicated and cumbersome compared to the original issue 800's. What were they thinking?

Thank you Gentlemen. I carry on a Mindshift backpack, 21.5 pounds, that fits into a Bombardier size overhead. I check everything else, including a tripod, wired into the suitcase and TSA padlocked to discourage theft. I have thought about the under seat in front idea. Not sure there would be room? Every time I think about leaving behind the 75% of the equipment I don't use regularly, I remember needing something and having it to make the shot.

When I fly the small AA jets, I am usually at risk of being forced to check my gear, because the overhead space gets used up before everyone has boarded. Any suggestions? Thanks.

That is about what I thought as well. What about OS?

I am getting ready to get a new pc to replace a 5 year old windows 7 machine that struggles with big image files. I use Adobe CC and work with files that are 100MB to 1+GB. I use a NEC MultiSync PA272W monitor and Epson P800 to print. How much power do I need to "quickly?" load and process large files? ei RAM, Processer, Graphics card, etc. Thanks!
