If you have any of the cameras above, tell me what you like about them/different aspects, or why I should choose one out of the whole group.
Added (1). P.S. I realize these cameras are all very different
Right, my Nikon D200 has started to display -CHA- on the top LCD screen. I have tried both my CF cards, 4GB and 1GB and it isn't having it. I've looked at the problem on various forums on Flickr and they say its a bent pin problem, none of the pins are bent? Anyone experienced this problem before or know what to do, many thanks Owen
P.S: i have formatted both cards and tried installing different firmware updates onto the camera and still nothing.
Is a 60 mb s cf card fast enough?
I just ordered a nikon d3s and already have a 60 mb s cf card, but i was wondering if it is fast enough to get my maximum burst rate(9fps). Should i upgrade to 90 mb s?
Is it safe to use carbon cleaner brush on my slr lens?
Would this work? I have a tamron 18-200mm lens on my nikon d200.
Nikon SB600 Flash not keeping up with Nikon D300?
If I continuously shoot pictures with my Nikon D300 (like 2-3 photos per second), some photos have flash and others don't. It seems the flash can't keep up. I have new Duracell batteries in the flash and my camera is fully charged, so I don't understand what's going on. Is there a setting on the flash or the camera I should change?
How to finance an expensive camera?
Long story short, I want the NIkon D3S and it costs $5, 199. I could easily afford monthly payments but I just can't afford $5, 199 all at once. I don't see a financing option on any of the websites that sell the camera. How would I do this?
What should I look for when buying lens for my nikon d300s?
I have no experience with photography but I'm very interested in learning about it.
Nikon 300mm VR 2.8 vs nikon 200-400mm F4?
I'm using D700 and have nikon 300mm F4 (optional with 1.4 TC) at the moment but i'm not pleased with the results.
I'm considering buying a new telephoto lens nikon 300mm VR 2.8 or nikon 200-400mm F4
what will be the best choice? , I attend to use converter as well since it should be using for nature and birding.
the question her is quality and functionality vs money
I have a Nikon D300, and it keeps telling me my lens is not attached! Anyone?
I have a Nikon D300, and it keeps telling me my lens is not attached!
First off, I have a Nikon D200, with a 3rd party external flash that I can use off-camera with a flash sync cord.
What lens should I use?
-50mm f/1.4
-18-55mm
-70-300mm
-(I can do the 'reverse lens' macro w/ the 50mm and 70-300, but I think it might be too close, even @70mm)
My main goal is to get stuff like this: 
or this: 
where it's all just very "clean" lighting.
My first question is, how should I set up the lighting?
-I have that external flash with a sync cord (10ft), with a mini-softbox. So where should I place that?
-I also have a reflective disk w/ silver, white, and gold sides. The 'body' of the reflector can also be used as a diffuser disk. When/where/how should I use this?
My next question is what should I use for water dropping?
-I've tried many things… Turkey baster, cups, etc. But I can't get a consistent drop flow.
