My computer is several years old and works fine so I don't want to
replace it yet.  It has a multi card reader built in, and I've always
downloaded my digital images this way.  It won't recognise cards
larger than 2GB, and I understand that such cards use the FAT 32

I have just acquired a Nikon 28-200mm D lens cheap. I've taken a few shots and it's sharp. My
question is, today I went outside with it on my N80 film camera for the first time to take some
cloud formation shots.  I have the camera set to single area focus in the center of the ...

OK, I think it's time to nominate the Leica M8 as "Turkey of the Decade."

Aparently, if you mount this thing on a tripod and shoot vertically, it
falls apart. Yes, really.

I wanted to get an electronic version of the D3's manual.
I get to a page:

where it says:

It may be kind of anti-climactic by now, but  I've updated the website at

to show the original out-of-the-camera JPEG's.  A summary of the EXIF data is
under the mid resolution original pictures and the full EXIF data is embedded in

Or just a PTLoser?

Newbie alert. I have inherited an old Sony DSC-F1 digital camera.
Although it is an old model, it seems to be well made and would be
ideal as my first camera, for taking the odd holiday snap etc.
However, there are some problems:

Here's a comparison of a couple of shots from the Olympics, one taken with a
Canon and the other with a D3:

The D3 shot is underexposed and has incorrect white balance! How can that

300mm f3.5.  Looks like a smaller f2.8.  It's not in the Nikon Compendium.
Does anyone know when this lens was released?
It's older, manual focus.

I need some prints. Since "going digital", I literally haven't printed
a thing.  I'm not asking about high-end printing, just a decent 8x10
print from a well-exposed jpg file.
I've never used "drug store" printing. I've got Duane Reade, CVS and

In a Canon PowerShot A700, is anyone
successfully using a memory card of
capacity 4 Go or 8 Go or more?  Canon

In Bridge that comes with Photoshop CS3, you have the option to 'reject'
a file instead of deleting it.  If you later decide you want to keep
that file, how do you 'un-reject' it.  I order CS3 to be delivered
online so I don't have a CS3 manual and 'help' does not address

I know the spec on the camera says it has been tested with a number of
compact flash cards between 1 and 8 GB, but has anyone tried the camera
with 16 GB cards? If so, can the D3 address all 16 GB?
