  1. Hey, I'm another who would appreciate this being sorted pronto - the main reason I pay an annual subscription to p.net was so I had an easy to use folio of hidden images to share online. I'm suffering the same symptoms, the galleries which previously contained my hidden images remain under previous titles but every way I try to enter/view those galleries, no images are showing up and no amount of frigging about on my part can access any of them..............
  2. My private view 'galleries' ie image files I used for online posting indicate that they are empty once I enter that gallery - I had over 500 images in one of them of which I refered to many repeatedly. Just uploaded a fresh pair of images to one private gallery and same deal - cannot click on the image and access the image data and the gallery indicates there are no images in that gallery.......... I'm also finding that I am not staying logged in for long enough - is there an adjustment I can make to stay logged on for longer or is there an auto nil activity log out activated? And whilst I'm having a good sook - this new p.net takes way too long to load up - and there is nothing wrong with my internet connection........... The 'My Account' section insists that I fill in my address detail and yet it offers Australia as an option but only offers USA states as an option to fill in the data box, this is simply way too America centric and a bit of an oversight. Personally I prefered the old site, nothing was broken with it for the 10+ years I subscribed to it - i found it quite logical and 2nd nature to flow through the menus, this new set up is too scatterlogical to my way of thinking. Maybe if I sit in front of this for hours I might find everything I used to browse on p.net but I say if it anint broke - don't fix it. ....and......... why do my paragraph breaks disappear when I post? C'mon p.net you can do (and did) much better than this.
  3. <p>I echo the above mentioned positive sentiments for the 70-200/4. If you don't require a larger aperture ,the VR on this lens is truly excellent and portability is as good as it gets. I hand hold this lens 100% of it useage and have an excellent rate of 'keepers' I don't consider myself to have very good hand held technique at short tele lengths but the 70-200/4 works well for me never the less.</p>
  4. <p>I made several circa 90 - 120 minute exposures on my D700 with an extra battery via the the vertical battery grip. This never effected the sensor - maybe I got lucky but I never had an issue with an uber long exposure so long as I had enough battery power for the shutter to remain up and for the noise reduction afterward.</p>
  5. <p>As an Australian who pays attention to these things; given that it's Christmas retail frenzy time I'd disregard a store discount right now as a sign of anything other than regular discounting cycle ie. stock has been on inventory for XX months and thus a push is required.</p> <p>Sure, if Nikon's announcement history is to be heeded the D750 and D810 are coming up at some stage soon for replacement, however I would not necessarlily interpret a discount right now as a sign of a replacement model coming in the next couple of months. </p> <p>However, if you need a body and the current D750 fits the bill then take the discount even if we are paying with Antipodean Pesos.</p>
  6. <p>Please keep it mounted, keep shooting and update us as you use it.<br> I'm very keen to hear about it as I'm currently wedded to my 14-24 with the full blown Lee SW150 filter kit but after a recent 5 day interstate trip I can see I'm still carrying plenty of weight in the form of glass.<br> I'm particularly interested in how well the filter system works as I can well do without A/F at 14mm-18mm which is where I use the 14-24 mostly.</p>
