    D2x Vs D300

    Vincent Versace thinks to go for the D300 (you can read this in the dpreview thread, i forgot which (i read it some time back)) and I think newer tech would definitely boost image quality even though it is merely a prosumer camera, the D300 will most likely have an edge over the D2x. The D2x is...

    lenses with good bokeh...

    I've tried a few canon lenses and i have to say. some are truly amazing. One of them is the 35 f/1.2L. Only one word: CRAZY. It's a crazy, crazy lens (and comes with a crazy crazy price as well). Since you mentioned the 24-70, it's also a mildly crazy one. Crazy, but not as crazy :P You should...

    AI vs AI-S lenses...

    Which of the two do you feel the image quality is better, or are they of the same standard? The AI-S 28 2.8 will virtually CUT you with its sharpness, but how do other AI lenses stand up to it?:dunno: Anyone has any experiences to share?

    http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1429/1390005326_5a949fba0b.jpg?v=0 Hey guys, how do you think this pic worked out? The reflections on the water droplet really caught my attention and I used a macro lens to get in close on it. How do you think the framing worked out? Could the lighting...

    Surreal

    Hi all, one of my first attempts at soft focusing. Picture was taken almost when there was no more light in the evening and with an AI-S 50mm f/1.4 lens. How do you think this technique worked in giving the image a surreal look? Any other ways to compose this picture that would have made it even...

    Hmm, actually is it possible that the DOF is just too shallow? Somehow I feel that the back "hairs" of the middle portion of the flower are sharp though :dunno:

    Hi all, I would like some feedback on this pic. Used a 105mm Macro VR Nikkor lens and lit it from the back with a remote SB-800 trigged by my D80's on-board flash. Used a short shutter speed to create falloff. Composition wise, how else could it have been framed that could have sparked more...

    Nikon D80 - dust in sensor

    Yep, it should be free if it's still under warranty. Just sent mine for cleaning just last week. Otherwise, should cost around 20 odd? Not too sure :bsmilie:

    Mine's loose as well. Perfectly fine and have tilted it on a tripod before with no harmful effects for long periods of time :)
