    <p>could this be Newton rings from scanning?</p>

    <blockquote> <p><em>"...there is more competition within Nikon between the D500 and D7200..."</em></p> </blockquote> <p><em><br /></em>I dont see a competion there, the D500 is for D300 fans, the D7200 for Idontknowwhat fans^^</p>

    <p>Thats the reason why 600mm lenses are buildt^^</p>

    <blockquote> <p><em>"The viewfinder image is then upside down and rather disorienting because you have to look at it from the side"</em></p> </blockquote> <p>Same here, its kind of psychedelic^^</p>

    <p>Go with the 180 "super", written in red letters. <br> The 55 is wide but a little harsh, take the 65.</p>

    <blockquote> <p><em>"YES, the issue is with all (3 nikons 1.8g's and a sigma 1.4) manual focus AND autofocus mode."</em></p> </blockquote> <p><em><br /></em>Maybe you are a little unclear how the AF of your Nikon works, it uses an own sensor and has <strong>NOTHING</strong> to do with the mirror.</p>

    <blockquote> <p><em>"...With the exception of the Mamiya C330, lenses are not interchangeable. Even then, both the taking and viewing lenses are changed together, with a very limited range of focal lengths...." </em></p> </blockquote> <p><em><br /></em>C330 lenses I have owned (in mm): 55, 65, 80, 105, 135, 180, 250.<br> For my understanding this is not "very" limited^^</p> <blockquote> <p><em> </em></p> </blockquote>

    <p>I have never done AF fine-tune, so maybe i dont understand it, I think it tunes the AF for some lenses, but the AF doesnt use the mirror, so I dont see the point, backfocus from missaligned mirror can only be an issue in manual focus mode</p>

    <blockquote> <p><em>"and use af fine-tune"</em></p> </blockquote> <p><em><br /></em>dont get that point,<br> either you use AF or MF, only here correct mirroralignment is important</p>

    <p>you dont know what an auto diaphragm is alltogether? <br> An automatic diaphragm keeps the lens wide open for focusing and stop it down to the set aperture when you click^^<br> </p>

    <p>or try to avoid that lights inside the frame</p>

    <p>I dont understand all that exitement, D500 buyers will know why they buy it , and others think its too expensive, but nobody is forced to get it, D7200 and D750 and all the other cams are still on sale.</p>

    <p>good news for the friends of the D200 body, 7xxx users will not understand.^^</p>

    <blockquote> <p><em>but it is very strange that there is a long gap between the 2007 D300 (with a minor 2009 update to the D300S with the same electronics) and the 2016 D500</em></p> </blockquote> <p><em><br /></em>You just have to interpolate the D400^^</p>
  17. mag_miksch
    <p>Beside the issues with the shop you need faster lenses for weddings, light isnt allways that great, so go with 2.8 or faster. </p>

    <blockquote> <p><em>"Depth-of-field depends on the circle-of-confusion chosen, which scales with format size"</em></p> </blockquote> <p><em><br /></em>There is a reason why they are called circles of confusion^^</p>

    <p>if you buy a replacment look for the newer full enclosed design; with the half open older finders I often had the problem that in bright situations I just saw my mirrored face on the ground glass.</p>

    <blockquote> <p> <em>and wouldn't be able to achieve at least some DOF/ out of focus areas.</em><br> <em> </em></p> </blockquote> <p>Maybe you should learn about the basics,<br> 1.DOF is a product from Aperture and Magnification<br> 2. Nikon F Flange distance is much larger than M43, this may be good with Teles but not with Wides, which need a complicated retrofocus design. M43 Wides are better suited for use on M43^^</p>

    <p>a second hand bargain lense is the 180/2.8 AF-d Nikkor and its very good.</p>

    <blockquote> <p><em> I ended up going with a Mamiya RZ67</em><br> <em> </em></p> </blockquote> <p>go with an RB, its more stable and works fully mechanical,<br> and you can use Mamyia 6x8 backs, some dudes milled out the revolving back to use eg. Horseman 6x9 back.</p>

    <blockquote> <p><em>how to transport enough individually sealed desiccant</em></p> </blockquote> <p><em><br /></em>you can use salt and dry it in a pan</p>

    <blockquote> <p><em>I want a camera with more control through movements.</em><br> <em>is the camera small enough to be used handheld?</em></p> </blockquote> <p>How will you use movements handheld?</p>
