Just let me know. ruger, will PDF you that review of that Nikon and lenses this week, just need to find which mag it was in as I don't read Nikon reviews.

Aubrey Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 Sorry, I meant the D80 over the D40/D60 for the AF lenses (As is what I own). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ripley Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 I was in a 2 hour meeting this afternoon (yes very boring) and we tried to print the whiteboard out so we all had a copy of the scrawled notes. The printer connected to the whiteboard wasn't working so I said no probs, we'll just take a photo off the screen and I can print it out A3 size and give people a colour copy. I rang someone at work whom I know has a Nikon DSLR for work purposes as she takes the photographs needed at work. She said, sure I can borrow it. Went and got it and oops, I don't know how to work it do I? The Nikon's settings are just all wrong! I wanted to bump up the ISO so I didn't need to use icky flash. Finally worked it out but gee, was pressed for time. Just shows you that you know the inside out of one DSLR, you can be a total idiot when you need to use a different DSLR in a hurry with everyone looking on (or maybe that's just me).

The white board would have given you some serious light metering challenges too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ripley Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 Couldn't be stuffed, just figured out the ISO and clicked. It only needs to be printed out to be typed up by someone (not me). BTW, pdf'd you a few pages of Nikon lenses, all types. Hope you have Adobe reader. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rocco Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 Anything interesting to share in the Nikon lenses department then Rugers...... any lenses getting good raves/must have? Was there anything about the Nikon 85mm F1.4? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ripley Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 Nikon lenses reviewed are: 70-200 2.8 VR G 80-400 ED VR IF 12-24 f/4 DX G ED 18-200 3.5 G DX VR IF ED (phew!) 18-70 3.5 ED DX 105 2.8G VR IF-ED Micro Nikkor that's it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rugerfly Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 you thinking about that one Rocks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rocco Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 you thinking about that one Rocks? Yep, it will be my next lens very shortly. I was thinking the 70-200 but thought it doesn't suit my style and it wont get much air time to justify the spend. 85 should get a far bit of use. If I do get a longer range lens I think I will just go for a 18-200 or 70-300 or something as a token lens to take to shows when I eventually start showing. You have the 18-200? What do you think of it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rugerfly Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 Better when not using at Huge distance, for crispness, but I rekon its a great all rounder Rock and not all that pricey. contrast is excellent. I wouldnt bother with the 300 unless you need the distance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
