N70 QD (quartz date) was more expansive than N70. If you don't use QD and panorama function N70 QD = N70. No difference, not a bit. QD function will print date ON your picture (right corner, in fact). Panorama function alows you to make panorama pictures by covering two parts of one frame.

Well, I have this tunable lamp in my house. So, what do we get here?

 

- "open up a little bit pls, John. A litle bit dark here"

_ "How many EVs do you need?"

_ "1/2, or 1, Just open it up. I'll tell you"

...

- "There! Hold it."

G lense is no good for learning.

I think my question has almost nothing to do with prediction through. As we all KNOW 70-200 AFS VR is out. As we all KNOW it's

the AFS 80-200 or AFD 80-200's upgrade. We also KNOW 70-200 has no

a-ring. Keep AFD or AFS is the big question for all of us. If Nikon can olny keep one of them I also agree with keeping AFD. However,

if Nikon can keep the MF system for ever they might keep the AFS

for good. Drop a little bit price, I wish ^_^ (highly unlikely)

B&H put it back in the catalog. Althrough it is out of stock now.

Depends on what kind of lens you want to use.

 

AF D&G ---> N80

 

AI, AIS ---> Fm3a (FM3a could not use AFG lens. Can use standard TTL flash mode only.)

 

AF, AI, AIS ---> Get a used N90x or N70 (N70 can't use G type lens)

Wow, slow down a little bit. I need to digest the cool parts. So many of them, I almost faint:)

 

Seriously, will F5 be the last film based pro camera made by Nikion? Any idea when will we see F6?

The word "dimension" sounds familiar to you?

 

Shame on me to reply this.

Who told you that? That's wrong, man.

 

"D" Staands for "the ability to meter in '3-D' mode".

If you only want to take portraits one 80-200/2.8 is enough. You will use ~100mm all the time. One 50/1.4 is good for low light.

17-35/2.8 will complete the focal length but you won't use it very often. 28-70 and 35-70 is just repeat the focal lenghth. I don't think you want to add them. Although they are excellent lense too.

Another vote for 17-35 f/2.8. This is a very good lense and is of

the exact focal length that you need. Don't believe the stupid lense

test by some moron web site. This lense beats the crap out of canon's

17-35 f/2.8 and will match some prime f/2.8 wide angle nikkors.
