Nikon D7000 Best Buy, Best I’ve used yet.

Monday, October 17th, 2011

This is the best Nikon digital SLR I have used to date. Ken Rockwell’s review was spot on. This camera makes taking beautiful pictures even easier. I have been happy with its ergonomics, weight, and quality. (I also got the md-b11 battery grip and love its overall feel.) I opted for the body only to go with other lenses that I already own. I have been especially happy with the low light performance of the camera. This was definitely a great step forward in camera evolution for Nikon. If you are shopping in this price range and do not have money invested in other brands of lenses than I highly recommend it. It is hard to say you should switch from another platform considering there are so many solid offerings. Canon’s 7D, wow. But for the Nikon crew this is a great camera. Highly recommend. Be sure to do your homework though. I have read so many horror stories of people having bad experiences because they did not know what they were buying. Spending over $1,000 does not make you a photographer, or guarantee that your photos will be dazzling. This camera will highlight your solid technique and allow you to do more than the entry level digital SLRs.

Nikon D5100 Cyber Monday, great Great GREAT!!!

Monday, October 17th, 2011

this camera has so many amazing features. I love the zoom, clarity, and color. Its very light and easy to carry around. I love the screen because not only can you take angled shots but when you’re not using it, you can turn the screen around and protect it! It may not seem that big of a deal but i use the flip-out screen so much. Because it’s a Nikon it’s relativity durable. I did chose this over the Canon t3i…
The battery is terrific!
The buttons are self explanatory
if I’m truly serious about getting into Photography i can easily do that on this camera

The annoying parts are is:
You have to be in live view to shoot video (but that’s easy)
If you are on Auto focus sometimes it doesn’t let you take a photo if you aren’t in 100% focus… but you can put the lens on Manual focus and take the picture

But if you are slightly unsure about the price GET IT ANYWAY IT’S DEFINITELY WORTH IT

Ok so this is going to be a mix review. First, the delivery of the tv was not what the anticipated delivery date was. It was a week off which is a big gap compared to an understandable couple of days. Next the delivery company did bring it in unpackaged it half way to plug it in to make sure it was working. It turned on so they unplugged it and said keep the box (which takes up a room pretty much) and they did not put on my stand as said they would. I think they told me to keep the box because their truck was full as my tv delivery was the first drop off that morning. So the delivery company did not do as described. So now I get the stand put together and the tv attached, and then put it on my entertainment stand. Hook all my devices up to and I am testing out all inputs etc. Everything looks fantastic and I am very pleased with the picture quality. Then all of sudden the tv goes out after 10 minutes of use!! I call Samsung and they set up a “in home repair” which the repair company set up for the following week. I could have returned all together but then they would have to schedule a pick up, then have to purchase again and wait for delivery. It took a week to get it fixed and I love it now!!

Bearpaw Boots love these!!!

I bought these in black last year and absolutely loved them, so I decided to buy them in brown this year. Both are very good quality and my black ones are still in excellent condition for being a year old. My feet stay very warm on cold days. Couldn’t be happier!

Nikon D3100 Best Buy, Great gift for the graduate

Sunday, October 16th, 2011

This is the perfect camera for the twentysomething or the fiftysomething who is looking for something more than the quality of a point and shoot. While it is not as portable, the versatility and ease of use is phenomenal with the quality of a Nikon. A great entry level camera for the more serious photographer.

Nikon D300S Black Friday, A truly phenominal piece of equipment.

Sunday, October 16th, 2011

This camera is amazing. Auto-focus, blazing fast and always accurate. I don’t know how it does it, but it nails the focus every time no matter what I’m shooting. With other camera I would always you center-point AF and focus and recompose. With the D300s I leave it on auto-area and get perfect focus every time. High iso, one of the best in it’s class, better than any Canon cropped sensor camera, and equal to Nikon’s own D90/D5000. This thing is built like a tank, it’s tough and will last you for years to come unless you throw it in the middle of a highway. It’s shoots more frames per second then I will ever need, but if you’re serious about sports photography this camera is for you. The image quality is best in it’s class. Compared to the Canon 7D the Nikon D300s gives sharper pictures with less noise and great detail over iso 400. The 7D photos to my eye looked too “digital” and processed. Where the D300s always gives a natural film like quality to it’s images. The color, contrast, sharpness, and exposure all seem much better to me on the D300s than the 7D.

Then only downside to this camera is the video. Like all DSLRs that can shoot video, it can’t auto-focus while shooting making it useless for all but the most hardcore video experts and film makers. It also suffers from “rolling shutter” while shooting video, but I don’t really care because I don’t buy picture camera to shoot video, I buy them to take pictures. No other camera beats the D300s in this price range at this time in my honest opinion.

Canon EOS 60D Best Price, love it

Sunday, October 16th, 2011

It’s my very first SLR – and at the beginning I was kind of concerned how to handle such a big and heavy camera. I bought it after several month of comparing similar items. Now I’ve taken some pictures with it – and it’s great! The handling is easy, the pictures are great and I’m getting used to carry a big fotobag with me.
