    Fat Pixel Nikons

    A D3 is for sure a Fat Pixel camera. I bought mine new the day it was released and it was my main camera till 12/2018 when I got another Fat Pixel camera, the D4S. Both cameras may have a low pixel count but the images are excellent and have a look all their own. I also used to own a D2h...

    I don't have the "Profile" icon in my LR Develop module

    Nevermind. I got it sorted. Despite my Adobe App update icon telling I had the latest LR I didn't. I went to the Adobe site and got it. So there is some new stuff, well new to me anyway. I'm trying the "Enhance" feature. Very slow to apply to an XPro 2 RAF file. Maybe it will look good...

    I don't have the "Profile" icon in my LR Develop module

    So I saw a tutorial on Youtube the other day about how LR had moved the profiles from the Calibration box to a new icon in the basic adjustment area. I have LR Classic CC, it's all updated per my Adobe reminder to do so and yet I have no such profile option. I've been through preferences...

    Nikon D3 body, very good, 74k clicks

    For sale. Nikon D3 body. I am the original owner. The camera was released 12/1/2007 and I had it 12/2/2007. Only @74K clicks. The body shows some use like where some of the rubber nubs are worn a little smoother from gripping the body. No deep scratches or gouges or scrapes. There is no cap on...

    Nikon mirrorless ?

    I handled a Z7 at a store the other day as I posted. I couldn't of course take any images home. I'd be satisfied with a Z6 for sure but the Z6 has the AA filter? I never owned a camera without one so I can't have any OMG moments about it either way. Is the AA filter on all the 24meg Nikons...

    I just handled a Z7 at a shop in CT

    Wait, I remembered more........ You can tell by the gear I've mentioned that all the latest VR and IBIS is stuff I've never used. When I had the lens off the Z7 but the camera turned on the sensor is right there just floating and moving, reacting to every jiggle I make. It is dead solid...

    I just handled a Z7 at a shop in CT

    Oh good, now I get to geek out on Leica shutter sounds. It was more film M than digital M. Like my old 67 chrome M4 with a little treble rolled off so a little more dampened. Actually I had an M7 for like a minute, that was a quiet camera. I rented an M8 when they first came out. That...

    I just handled a Z7 at a shop in CT

    I meant to mention the Z7 EVF, again my only EVF experiences are with a Fuji X100T and X100F I've rented because they taunt me to buy one. It didn't immediately occur to me the Z7 finder was EVF even though I knew it was it's just that my first impression wasn't f**k me I'm watching a TV and...

    I just handled a Z7 at a shop in CT

    So by total accident I came across a Nikon Demo Day at Milford Photo in Milford CT. I got to handle the Z7, the zoom and 35mm lenses as well as the adapter and a 70-200 2.8. First off my mirrorless experience or interest (maybe changed) is very very little. I don't really care if Sony has...

    Test drove the Fuji X-PRO2. I'm a fan, well sort of.

    Not sure if this is your focus question or not but I'd for sure swap functions of the AFL button on the far right back of the camera with the AEL button closer to mid camera. That way I could use my thumb for focus as I do on my Nikon D3. I had rented an X100F for a recent trip and used the...

    X100T red noise in a line on image

    Thanks for the replies. The redline only appeared in Exposure2 but really I never think of that as being my RAW convertor of choice, Photo Mechanic always uses the embedded jpg for a preview and there was no line there. So I did load the new latest Silkypix convertor. Lots of control and...

    X100T red noise in a line on image

    OK so I've rented for the holidays an X100T. In the past I've used a rented Xpro2 and EX2 (I may have those letters crossed up) so I'm not entirely new to the Fuji cameras. My main camera is a Nikon D3 and I own no RAW convertor besides the Nikon NX2 and the not so bad convertor in Alien Skin...

    Sensor Gel Stick, anyone

    https://photographylife.com/product/sensor-gel-stick Has anyone ver used this? I use the various air methods, the Rocket etc. never compressed air and never the wipe on stuff. I has a spec on the sensor before I shot the Newport Folk fest and now I've got a good one. It was dusty this...

    Photo Mechanic and emailed images

    I'll answer my own question. When you email from PM it opens Apple Mail. I don't use Apple Mail for anything else. So it turns out that someone on the PM help forum mentioned a "size" box that appears in Apple Mail when you are sending an image. I have never seen nor noticed this box...

    Nikon 35 1.8G+ 85 1.8G lens mounts

    Wondering if these FX "G" lenses have a metal lens mount or plastic. I haven't found a photo that shows whatever they have and I'm wondering. Thanks Neil

    Photo Mechanic and emailed images

    Any PM users out there? I can't say when for sure this all started but images I email to myself and others from PM are so badly pixelated they are useless and they used to be excellent. I have the latest version or PM in a MBP OS 10.9.5 I almost feel as if PM changed something cause I sure...

    A review of sorts, XE-2S vs Nikon D3

    This was over in the thread comparing the 2 to the 2S. Thought I'd make a new thread so maybe more people read it or notice it. Might be of use to some. OK, here's a review of sorts of a Nikon D3 users impressions of the Fuji XE-2S over 5 days. I have a friend and Fuji fan and he and I had...
