    Recommendation for local shop to service Elmarit 21mm

    Hello fellow members, I have a Elmarit 21 ASPH F2.8 that is a little stiff with the focusing ring - probably due to sitting in the dry cabinet for long time. Probably needs some lubrications. Besides the agent, who can you recommend to do a service? And who can, if pssoble, do a day or two...

    What to set? NEX 5 with manual Leica lens

    Thank you all for your input. I'm "clearer" now. Took me a while to figure out what DRO is. found it under the brightness/colour menu.... So when I use the manual mode, and I set the lens to F16, do I also have to set the camera to F16? In "A", it looks simpler but the pictures tend...

    Torn between 24-120 F4 and 28-300 F3.5-F5.6

    Thank you all for your responses. It sure give me lots to think about, namely what I really do want out of "travel pictures" and what "style" of shooting I prefer. It's always a case of limited means with unlimited wants. I think i am leaning towards the 24-120 but that last statement about...

    Torn between 24-120 F4 and 28-300 F3.5-F5.6

    I'm trying to decide between these two lenses for travel and general walk-around photography, on a FX. I'm drawn to the 24-120 with constant F4, however the VRII on the 28-300 boast a 4 F-stop advantage which in my understanding, probably makes it just as good as the F4 (sanity check please)...

    New Markins Q3T design?

    Just came across a comment on the web that Markins has re-designed their Q3T so that the knobs are now 90 degrees apart - so that when used on the Gitzo 1541T, the legs can now close completely. Can anyone confirm this? Is this already available here in Singapore?

    iMac does not recognise Nikon D700

    hello all, So I am home now and yes, I can import the pictures using Adobe Bridge. But not with iPhoto. This is with a direct connection to the D700. But with a CF card reader (Sandisk extreme USB 2.0 reader), I have a icon on my desktop like an external drive and I can see the pictures...

    iMac does not recognise Nikon D700

    Thanks all for your replies. I do have iPhoto and CS4 installed but it didn't occur to me to start them and look for the camera icon in there. I used "Finder" and was expecting to see it like a drive icon there, or a camera icon on the desktop. I'll go home and try it out tonight. thank...
