    Nikon's new all-round travel lens?

    Nikon just announced the Nikkor 28-400mm f4-8 zoom . Not normally in the market for such a beast, but this time it looks like it could be pretty decent - see diverse reviews on YouTube .... could be persuaded that it's ideal for going walks with the pooch ;)

    2023...what can we expect from Nikon?

    My wish list, rather than expectations: 1. Nikon D500 mirrorless version. 2. Nikkor 200-600 with built in TC. Expectations: 1. I think we'll see the much rumoured Z8, to counter the new Sony A7R5 (60mp/8K etc). 2. Nikkor 85mm f1.2 3. Nikkor 135mm f1.8 4. Nikkor 14mm f1.8 Let's hear your thought!

    Image Stacking for Macro

    I'll take the plunge and upload the 1st image for this new thread. Nikon FX, Sigma 150mm Macro, Novoflex macro slider, Helicon Focus SW. Image is composite of ≈35 - 40 single captures. Taken a while ago, so some details are hazy. I do recall wondering how this would work out, as the size and...

    Xpan lenses on X1D - worthwhile?

    Hi folks, with the pending release of the new version 2 of the X1D - and the CFV/907X combo - we were wondering if it is worthwhile resurrecting our Xpan kit..... Am particularly interested in user experience with the 30mm Xpan lens - and its use in pano mode. Thanks for any input. Cheers SB :cool:

    Image stack from 4K video file

    I recently employ image stacking for macro work, and as such became intrigued by the M4/3 methods used by Oli and Pana to generate post-focus image stacks from video files. Not wanting to invest in a new system, although the Oli 60mm macro looks lovely, I explored using the 4K video function of...
