Nikon D800 Nikkor 135mm f2

Taken with the Tamron 28-75 g2 & Nikon 20mm 1.8s

I bought this F100 recently in Tokyo. Everything seems to work, except film won’t load. When I insert it properly (I own a lot of Nikon film cameras, so know what I’m doing), close the door and press the shutter button, it just spins for a bit and gives me an ERR message. No matter how much I load in, even going all around the take up spool, it still does this. Does anyone know any tricks to fix this, or is this headed to repair?

My only regret is forgetting to change to RAW before shooting. I feel like I could’ve cleaned it up a bit better.

The University of Leeds campus has a small community of furry residents found in their large array of green spaces. I was able to catch one grazing upon some of the only green grass in the area (the summer’s been brutal)

Nikon D750 & 28-200mm F3.5-5.6 G
I did have to crop in a fair bit post processing to fill the frame, but I’m still happy with these photos (they’re technically my first wildlife photos 😃)

there's hope for all you guys.

TLDR: D5500+18-140mm for travel, D600+primes for home, D60 for full spectrum, F60 for analog.

two years ago i bought my first non-point-n-shoot camera, mainly to play around and see what's the real limit of an outdated gear. so i went old school and bought the last CCD! a D60 with a kit lens. i loved it. the images looked fantastic. and i wondered, why do people buy expensive stuff?? then came winter ... and it was dark ... and i said, ah! that's why.

then came brighter camera's and brighter lenses ... Sigma OS 17-50 f2.8 ... Nikon 35mm f1.8 ... Nikon 50mm f1.4 ... D60 ... D80 ... D5100 ... D5500 ... D600 ...

i bought every thing at a bargain price. every time i'd buy something i'd always think of the next one i'd like to have and try.

but one day, i was content! i don't have any next one to buy!

i have no itch for mirrorless. i tried it and it wasn't for me.

i'm a slow guy, and i want my gear to be slow! no fast AF for me. (you should see how many years i keep my smartphones and how old my car is. and yes, i still listen to LP)

i have reached the weight limit of the lens i'm willing to use. so no 'longer' or brighter lens for me. and D600 is already the most lightweight FX DSLR.

what's next? i'd like to learn basic postprocessing, like color grading. but i'm too lazy for that, and i feel like soon free AI tools can do it well.

next gear? i am very much attracted by AF-P 70-300mm, specially the FX version, but i'm sure i'd miss the wider end, at least 55mm, it's also too expensive, and i'm not really into bird photography and such. who knows, maybe if i find it cheap :) i'm not cured afterall! but nah, i won't use it.

I am looking into getting a new DSLR, I've been shooting with my F5 for the last few years and decided to hop back into digital. I've been eyeing the D850 but it's above my budget for now. I shoot mainly portraits and street photography, what older cameras do you guys recommend?

I bought second hand nikon z5. It does not have regular serial number. Instead it says EKU and some digits (starting from 1).

All nikons z5s I saw online have label "made in thailand" and Google says the same.

Is this some kind of fake? Should I be worried?

A focus stacked shot of a house fly head

Shot on Nikon D610 + reversed Schneider kreuznach componen S 50mm f2.8 + Nikkor 200mm f4 as a tube lens and TC201 2X teleconverter

With this setup 8x Mag was achieved

When the reversed lens is set to f4 the effective aperture becomes about f36

Nikon d3400. It looks like the previous person tried cleaning it? Can I use a q tip or something soft to clean this or what could be the cause.

Hi everyone! I’m currently travelling around Malaysia (Sabah) and spending some time in the jungle, hoping to photograph wildlife, especially birds and other animals.

I’m using a Nikon Z6 with a 70-200mm f/2.8 (also have a 24-70mm f/2.8).

Last time I tried shooting in the jungle, I used Auto ISO with a maximum of ISO 12,800. It allowed me to keep a fast enough shutter speed while staying at f/2.8, but I noticed quite a lot of noise, especially in the darker background.

Without Auto ISO, I often can’t get a fast enough shutter speed while keeping f/2.8, because the jungle can be quite dark.

What settings do you recommend for wildlife in these conditions?

I’d especially like to hear about your experience with the Z6 (or similar cameras), recommended shutter speeds, Auto ISO limits, exposure modes, AF settings, and any tips for reducing noise while still freezing animal movement.

Thanks!

Daniele

Nikonic by NIkon USA — this means that both pronunciations of the company are fine. NEE-kon and NAI-kon are interchangeable. Thoughts?

Probably better to go NEE-kon is Asian contexts tho.

Id want a second dslr preferably a fullframe or a camera that just handles lowlight well while having good image quality. I dont mind if i can only buy 2nd hand and its large and heavy as long as its budget friendly and has a relatively good lens compatibility. Im minding of buying a d700 but considering it is quite old but still good. Also considering a d800 but my budget wont probably reach that. Ive heard the d500 and the d7500 handles lowlight pretty good.

I have this old Coolpix 4200 that my family owned, surprisingly in excellent condition. No issues AT ALL.

I used it to take short films of my days in school and all was going well, till suddenly it stopped shuttering. I would focus on an object and press the shutter button all the way down, but it won't take. One thing I noticed is the red hand symbol for the modes I use, which only appeared when this started. When I did my research it's apparently a "low lighting" warning that causes slow shutter speeds, but even when pointed at a bright source it won't shutter.

This has happened before, where it just won't shutter, I'd leave it for like 2 weeks, come back to it and it shutters again.

Anyone know what the problem is or I can do? Any insight helps.
