VPI Posted December 19, 2011 Report Share Posted December 19, 2011 It was a $1200 D700. It had all the pictures and everything but I guess it must have been some kind of scam. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bhjazz Posted December 19, 2011 Report Share Posted December 19, 2011 For the NEX-5N or NEX-5 users: I tried one of each today, but found that my fingers are maybe longer than the designers had anticipated. The grip seems a little shallow and the shutter button hits just inside my first knuckle. I suppose I could get used to it. Anyone with long fingers used this regularly? The 5N with the touch screen is super fast and easy to used. Damn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crappyjones123 Posted December 19, 2011 Report Share Posted December 19, 2011 (edited) i have short fingers and find nex 5 give me a wee bit of trouble but not nearly as bad as you. how about the 10 dollar remote?

bhjazz Posted December 20, 2011 Report Share Posted December 20, 2011 (edited) Remote, eh? I'll have to look in to that. Thanks, crappy. Maybe I just need to adjust my grip. Or hold it from the bottom like a bigboy camera. Or maybe that salesman was making me fucking nuts with his incessant yapping. I'll have to play with it somewhere else. No worries: it looks like the kit version of the 5N won't be available for a bit anyway. That dealer can't keep them in and the supply is fooked from the Thailand flooding (or so he said...). I think the wait might be worth it since I would imagine the next batch should have the video clicking firmware built in.

crappyjones123 Posted December 20, 2011 Report Share Posted December 20, 2011 the remote was just a joke but hey if it helps you then why not. it is only 10 bucks and supposedly works quite well. give it a try. if it doesnt work for you, send it back to amazon. there are a bunch of kits and bodies on sale over at fm... http://www.fredmiranda.com/forum/topic/1069641/0?keyword=nex,5n#10174526 http://www.fredmiranda.com/forum/topic/1069303/0?keyword=nex,5n#10170499 http://www.fredmiranda.com/forum/topic/1068390/0?keyword=nex,5n#10160385 http://www.fredmiranda.com/forum/topic/1068216/0?keyword=nex,5n#10158535 apparently the remote is not even 7 bucks... http://www.amazon.com/Wireless-Remote-Control-NEX-5-RMT-DSLR1/dp/B00407YLEU/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1324362363&sr=8-1 i have a little strange little set up with my nex 5. lets see if i can find any pictures of it. oddly enough it forces my left hand to hold the camera in a way which is rather comfortable.

Wmcmanus Posted December 20, 2011 Report Share Posted December 20, 2011 (edited) I'll need to add this to the mindless consumerism thread as well. This Santa season has been especially busy (actually making some money), so I bought myself a 100mm macro lens. Been meaning to do so for some time, and there are instant rebates going on now with B&H: http://www.bhphotovi...2_8L_Macro.html Edited December 20, 2011 by Wmcmanus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crappyjones123 Posted December 24, 2011 Report Share Posted December 24, 2011 (edited) Anyone know about a sigma sa7n camera? Looks to be in pretty good condition. Comes with 28-80 and 70-300 lenses. Sigma mount. Lenses are in pretty good condition. $110? Want something decent and cheap to play with film. Something with decent resale value would be nice in case it doesn't go too well.

Torpedo Posted January 4, 2012 Report Share Posted January 4, 2012 Great! Amazing focus. Any idea what should have been the shutter speed to stop the wings motion? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nikongod Posted January 4, 2012 Report Share Posted January 4, 2012 Awesome shooting. Great! Amazing focus. Any idea what should have been the shutter speed to stop the wings motion? Its nearly impossible to do with available light, most people use flash to stop insect/hummingbird wings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dreadhead Posted January 4, 2012 Report Share Posted January 4, 2012 I want them to release a D800 already. That said with strollers/diaper bag/laptops etc I don't think I will be traveling with a DSLR anytime soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
