<p>Thanks, <a href="/photodb/user?user_id=19054">Ilkka Nissila</a>. You are right, 200-500mm is a very good lens. Yes, sometimes it refuses to focus for close subjects, Otherwise it is a sharp lens. I will stick on DX body. Waiting for pro. DX body, if Nikon has some plan. </p>

<p>Shun, The bird was in shade. In my opinion, 1/400 seconds, ISO 400 and F5.6 is not enough to photograph a 14cms small, a very active bird which is almost similar in color to its background (Low contrast). I was lucky to get this bird sharp due to continuous burst but after several attempts.<br>

As you all know it looks clear due to cropping.</p>

<p>Hey all,<br>

Thanks to all for their excellent suggestions regarding the use of camera in dim light condition with Nikon 200-500mm. The answer is to use a fast lens. But fast lenses are beyond my reach so I will change my strategy for shooting birds in dim light (Small birds are most of the time feed in between trees).<br>

Here is a photo of Grey headed Flycatcher taken with 200-500mm + D7100 combination after many failed attempts.<br>

Thanks Wouter, you are absolutely right. A faster lens is the answer. I will rethink regarding the purchase of D750.

 

There is a photo on Nikon website taken in moon light with Nikon D750, which gave me this idea and i thought that it would be a great camera in shooting small birds in dim light.

<p>Hey All<br>

<strong>Auto focus</strong> would be better if I use D750 instead of using D7100 with Nikon AF-S 200-500mm ultra zoom lens for birds in <strong>dim light.</strong> Need expert advice.<br>

Sincerely<br>

RG</p>

<p >Thanks to you all for giving me valuable suggestions. It would be better if lens manufacturer could use some kind of chemical on lens coatings to prevent fungus.</p>

<p>Dear All,<br>

I need an expert advice, as i could not find an appropriate solution for the subject.<br>

'Can i keep Fungal affected lenses with normal lenses in an Automatic Dry Cabinets at 40% RH - 45% RH'.</p>

<p >Pl. guide me, where and how can I find Lo-1 (ISO 50) setting on Nikon D7100 as mentioned on dpreview.com under D7100 specifications.</p>

<p >Thanks</p>

<p>Hi,<br>

Recently purchased Nikon D7100 (Body). It stops processing after few shots because of it's buffer limitation. I think it can be improved just like Canon did for EOS 7D firmware update in 2012 and Improved it's maximum burst for RAW images (up to 25).<br>

<p>Sometimes I can not activate focus on d7100 attached with 300mm AFS f/4 +TC 1.4 EII. I am using AE-L, AF-L knob for focus activation instead of shutter release button. Is this a malfunction of camera or some setting issue ?<br>

Thanks.<br>

RG</p>

<p>Frank, Yes, you are right, this combination needs a sturdy tripod good light and almost stationary suubject. Here is an example. 300/4 + 1.4tc (two nos.)</p><div></div>

<p>Thanks to all of you for giving me your precious time. Just few hours back i stacked both the converters and got the result. Photos are not sharp, tolerable, but somehow i overcome the need of a big tele lens for some time. </p><div></div>

<p>Is it safe to stack both the converters together (Nikon TC-14 EII and Kenko Teleplus 1.4 Pro 300) and how these should be attached.</p>

<p>Can any body comment on stacking the Nikon AF-S Teleconverter TC14 EII 1.4X and the Kenko 1.4X Teleplus Pro 300 on the Nikkor 300mm F/4 AF-S Lens.</p>

 

<p>Hello,<br>

Recently a dotted horizontal line (Slightly pink in colour) starts appearing on my D200 LCD screen. Pl. let me know what it is.<br>

<p>Hi,<br>

I have a <strong>Nikkor AFS 24-85G F/3.5-4.5 IF ED</strong> for few years. Recently i hear an Irritating (screeching, scratch) sound during auto focusing the lens. Is this sound related to lack of some kind of lubricant.<br>

Regards.<br>

Hi,

 

Previously I had Nikon f80 and it was compatible with Kenko Auto Extension

Tubes (Not DG). Recently I purchased a Nikon D200. I just want to confirm

whether Kenko Auto Extension Tubes (Not DG), are compatible with D200?

 

Pl. guide.

Hi,

Has any one used the combo below :

Nikkor 300mm f/4 AF-S+ TC-14E II & Nikkor 80-400 VR Zoom lens on F80.

Which combination is fast and optically excellent.

Thanks.
