  1. Found a post over on FM.com by CanadaMark listing features, which stated - Smaller RAW modes does not increase buffer size, they actually take longer for the camera to process. Medium is 25.5MP, small is 11.3MP."
  2. If you truly need to shoot at wide apertures, the modern lenses are going to be noticeably better, especially in the corners. If you shoot at f8 or so, the AF-D lenses will still perform very well, and are considerably more compact and handy, plus they have aperture rings, if you prefer to use them as I do.
  3. @dieter: Thanks for the information on sRaw. Not a big deal to me. Also, it will be difficult for me to justify the upgrade from my D800, which is still serving me very well in studio. And, the fact that I prefer my Df for family, travel and street photography. I might go for a deal on a clean used D850 later next year. Who knows?
  4. Very nice, and rather tempting. I wonder if the reduced sized RAW files a true RAW files of some compromise? It would be nice to process the smaller files where the situation warrants.
  5. Tony Northrop of Tony & Chelsea Live on YouTube posted a good video on the subject. Here's a link:
  6. I rarely use exposure compensation. When in doubt, I usually spot meter or look at the histogram.
  7. 50/1.8D, easy to find under $100, brilliant optic a landscape apertures.
  8. If this were a wedding anniversary, the wife would not be pleased. No Df2 :-(
  9. [sgt. Shultz]I know nothing!![/sgt. Schultz] But, that sounded like a 'maybe' to me. I hope Nikon gives us some cool new stuff.
  10. Shun, shall we expect an announcement from you at 12:01 am 7/19/2017? Curious minds want to know.
  11. I don't turn it off to change lenses. But, most of the time, I change lenses while the camera is already off.
  12. When I got my D700, I left DX for good. If I ever change sensor sizes again, it will be medium format.
  13. A beater Elmar 50mm with a scratched up front element and internal haze/fungus ought to get you what you're looking for.

  15. I joined photo.net on April 17, 1997. At that time, I had a different email and account, presumably, I would be dan_brown|1 in today's parlance. Anyway, Philip Greenspun was posting regularly back in the day, and the place was extremely cool. Cheers to all, and I hope to be here for another 20 years :^)
