    Nikon D800E - Is it possible to reset the frame counter?

    I just bought a "used" D800E in EXC+ condition. The camera looks new. I took a test shot, and the frame number is DSC_0001. Is it possible to reset the frame number in the field, or is this really a new camer? TIA. - Leigh

    Delay in reporting malware posts

    The board imposes a 4-minute delay between reporting spam and other problematic posts. Why? There are currently three spam threads, one of which I reported. So I have to wait 4 minutes to report the second, then another 4 minutes to report the third. There's no time delay imposed on the...

    Lighting a heavy model ???

    I'm presented with an interesting challenge... shooting figure studies of a young woman who's rather overweight. She used to be rather slim, and is still quite pretty. I did some nice figure work with her a few years ago. :cool: But she put on a lot of weight when she was pregnant a couple...

    FS: Nikon 85/1.8 D (AF) for 35mm-size body

    I have both the 1.4 and 1.8 versions of this lens, and don't need both, so I'm selling the 1.8. Lens is in KEH EXC+/LN condition; has always been protected by UV filter (included). I bought the lens new, and it's seldom been out of the camera bag. Photos if you insist, but I haven't taken any...

    Lens hoods / shades for LF?

    What do folks use for hoods on LF field/view cameras? Given the wide range of lens attachment sizes and angle of view, it would seem difficult to find suitable shading devices. I'm thinking of using a compendium lens hood. But the ones I've seen attach to the camera body and might interfere...

    WTB: Majestic double-leg tripod

    I'm looking for the model with pairs of legs at each location. I think it's a 4140 but don't quote me. Telescoping legs would be nice but not absolutely necessary. I don't need the head. I'm moving my existing head from a mono-leg tripod to the paired-leg version. Please email or PM with...
