Does the Nikon 1 v2 have a macro lens?

So I got my Nikon 1v2 about 2 years ago, and back then the camera was pretty new and they didn't have a macro lens. When I looked in the website all of the lenses were titles with just numbers and stuff, anti don't know what all of that means. If you know of one, a link would be helpful. Thanks!

Photography-My Dog Won't Look Up at Me When I Take a Picture of Him?

I recently began using a Nikon Coolpics L330 to take photos of my dog. However, he barely makes eye contact with me.
I've held treats above the camera and made noises, but when I take a picture, he tends to look away. Because of this, I can never get a clear shot.
Do any photographers use a Nikon and face the same problem? Any tips? Thank you:-).

Which is better Sony alpha a58 or nikon d3300?

I know many of you will answer nikon but i know nothing about dslr. I want to start photography. I visited nearby retailer and had a look on both of the camera. Both were good enough but sony had an edge over, it is easier to use while setting aperture,shutter speed and stuff in nikon was complicated to get a good picture as i know nothing about it. Automatic mode and semiauto was better in sony. And even picture turned out to be great in sony overall.
Dont suggest any other brand please.

A good quality camera for an amateur photographer?

I'm very interested in photography with things such as nature and sunsets, and my phone camera just doesn't do it for me anymore. I also want to invest in a good quality camera for general use. I have been looking at some such as the Nikon P600 or l830, as they are in my price range. Would these be suitable for what I'm looking for? If not, can anyone suggest a good quality bridge camera for under 400?

Is the Nikon D3200 better than my old Nikon D40x?

I still love my D40x and get nice photos from it, but it is 9 years old and I'm wondering how it compares to the 3200 or around that price range… Not sure if I should upgrade… I'm looking at a nice black friday deal on a D3200. I shoot at professional levels with the D40x, engagement shoots, newborn shoots, modeling tests, etc. I'd like to shoot for magazines some day, so should I just wait and save up for something like the 750? I don't want to waste money, I just really LOVE photography, it's like breathing for me, and it excites me. I'm going through chemo right now so shooting professionally again is going to be a while. I did the engagement shoots and newborn shoots etc during college. Then I got sick… I'm hoping to aim for my dream and step it up once I get better, but that'll be about a year from now, most likely.

So… Thoughts?

Will old 35mm lenses fit new DSLR cameras?

I'm sure this is a question that has been asked many many times, but I didn't see my specific camera/lenses and wanted to get some opinions.

I have an old 35 mm Minolta Maxxum 5000i with 2 lenses

Sigma DL zoom 35-80mm

Sigma 70-300mm

I am still a camera novice but want to get a decent entry-level camera (Nikon?). I would like to know if these lenses would be compatible/be able to use them with a DSLR camera. Are there certain brands that are compatible and others that aren't? What options do I have if they aren't?

I understand that ideally I would like to get new lenses, but since I have these already, I would like to know their compatibility.

Also, if you have any recommendations for an entry level $500 - 600 camera, please let me know. My brain hurts from looking at all the options. If there's been a recent upgrade, and the older model is still a great option and maybe even a little cheaper, that would be great.

Thanks for any suggestions. Any help is appreciated.

Canon rebel t3 or t3i for a beginner?

I want to buy a DSLR camera but I don't know which one to get. I heard that Canon is better than Nikon so I narrowed it down to either the rebel t3 or the t3i. I'm mostly going to be taking pictures, not videos. Does one camera have better picture quality or are they pretty much the same? Is the t3i worth the extra money?

Where can I rent a camera?

Hello =)

I wanted either a Canon or Nikon DSL camera.

But I can't pay for it in full at the moment.

So I was wondering where i would be able to pay for one monthly.

I know about Rent-A-Center and Aaron's, but they don't really even have any cameras.

So I was wondering if a store or electronic store had rental deals or something like that.

Thanks =)

Nikon D80 battery won't charge?

I have a Nikon D80 with two batteries, recently both batteries are acting strangely, one battery won't hold a charge, I put it on the charger over night and this morning the charging light was green indicating that it was charged, so I put it in my camera and the camera said it wasn't charged. With the other the other battery, it can be fully charged and will randomly just die, even at a full charge. What should I do about this? I have ordered some new battery's hoping that's the problem, but they won't be in for a while and I need to be able to use the camera today if possible. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance!

Beginner choosing between two SLRs: Canon Rebel T3i and Nikon D3200?

Hi

I am a beginner choosing between Canon Rebel T3i and Nikon D3200. From most of the reviews I read Nikon has much better specs and suppose to take better photos. However when I tried it out at store I found that Canon ends up taking photos with much more vivid color and looks better to me. (As a beginner)

So my question would be that does it mean that Canon has better image processing that makes the photo it takes look better? Does it mean in theory I can use a graphic processing software to make the Nikon pictures look even better then Canon one? Would that be hard or prove to be too much trouble for me as a beginner?

Nikon Photography: 35mm f1.8 vs 50mm Help?

I'll try and make this quick. First, I'm an amateur automotive photographer. Simply a hobby I love.
I have a d3200.

As a car photographer, bokeh is a key point for CaR shots.

Question: I have a 50mm 1.8D. I'm deciding on the 35 1.8g or the 50 1.8G. Both excellent. I want the 50 because bokeh is better, however the 35 doesn't seem to give that "compressed" telephoto shot which I hate the sight of, like the 50mm does.

So what should I get?

Also please don't lecture.me on understanding focal lengths. I understand well. Thanks

How strict is B&H Photo on returns?

About 2 weeks ago, I purchased a Nikon D3300 DSLR camera from B&H Photo in NYC. The camera showed up on time and seems to be worth the money. My only concern is the fact that I am already an experienced photographer and may want to upgrade.

I had it shipped to my house, and the store has a 30 day return policy. There is not a speck of dust or a mark on the camera or lens and it is essentially still brand new.

My only concern is the fact that the screen protector that came on the screen just for minimal protection while shipping was taken off and recycled by mistake. Everything else is still there including the warranty cards, manuals, and cords. They are still wrapped up and in bags.

Do you think that they will reject the return because I have taken the screen guard off for shipping and did not put it back on?

Any opinion helps.

Thanks!

Do you prefer the Nikon D3200, Canon Rebel T5, or neither?

My last camera broke (Luckily, I had bought an extended warranty!) So I'm shopping for a new camera. I was planning to get the Pentax K-50, but then I remembered black friday had some deals coming up. So I found the ads at walmart for Black Friday, and they are having a bundle of a Nikon D3200 with 18-55mm and 55-200mm Lens, plus a bag for it all for 500$. Then they have the Canon Rebel T5 with 18-55mm and 75-300mm lens, along with a bag and 8gb sd card for 450$. I've really only owed Nikon Cameras, but I'm opening up to different brands. I just want to know if these are worth it, and I'd be happy with them. I'm a young hobby photographer, so I just want something that will compliment that(mostly nature shots)!
Please don't be biased, I'd like know know your opinion on the cameras itself, not the brand. I was just kinda Sketchy about the Canon, it seems good, but its 50$ cheaper than the nikon and it comes with what seems more stuff. Is it because it's only 18 megapixels, and the nikon is 24 megapixels?

Please, and thank you!

Camera Equipment stolen from me?

Recently in my neighborhood about 2 months ago that's were some break ins and the police caught the people responsible. About a week ago my wife and I were talking photos with my Bikini d3200 that we paid for from best buy and have a receipt for on hand and online plus on our best buy card. Well apparently one of the neighbors had one like it that was stolen and never will recovered they saw us using it and called the police who were still looking for everything. When they got to our house the neighbors were out side with them and the officer asked if we had the neighbors Nikon d3200 and I told the officer we had one yes but it was ours and we could prove it so we brought it out with the receipt and the officer said well you could of called the paper receipt. At that point the neighbor said that they just wanted their camera back and I said this is not your camera we bought this a year ago at best buy for 2000 along with the telephoto lenses they said again that it was too much of a coincidence that we had one and the officer agreed and told me that if I did not hand over the camera I would be arrested on the spot we went to see a judge the next day and he agreed that all the receipts we had proceed it was ours and when he called or neighbors who were in the police report they said no it was theirs and we're not going to give back the camera and hung up. The cop told the judge he was just doing his job an the judge said sorry his hands are tied. What can we do?

What is the Nikon d3200 good for?

I am starting a youtube channel and need a camera. I was thinking of getting the Nikon d3200 because I found a really good bundle, but I want to make sure that I am making the right choice. I will be doing makeup tutorials, fashion vidoes, cooking videos, etc… So I need a camera with good focus, but also one that works well outside. I also really like photography, as well as making short films, so I'm wondering if that would work well with this camera as well.
Any facts/ opinions would be greatly appreciated. (PS I am a beginner but I would like a camera that I wont have to replace in a few years)

Wide angle conversion lens?

Hi i have both Nikon D5100 and Nikon D60 and using both 18-55mm lens and other telephoto/macro lens with.
I have gone through few articles and reviews, just few question: - on some wide angle conversion lens, when we focus or zoom, the side edges of the conversion lens appears on the pic with a dark spot on the corners, but not with all conversion lens.
There are few on markets, for example, some are 52mm, 58mm. 60mm
what difference does it make if attached to a nikon 18-55mm lens with any of the above conversion lens?

any help or ideas which one to buy?
thanks

Necessities for Widlife Photography?

For the past 3 months, I've been picking up wildlife photography. Birds are really my thing, and definitely one of the harder things to photograph. My big interest is hummingbirds, and I'm going to try to get a little studio going in my backyard next season. This will most likely be a branch with an area for bait, then a background behind such as some flowers.

I'm using a Nikon D3100 with a 70 - 300mm VR lens f/4.5-5.6, and mostly hand shooting. With around $1000, what should be the first things to get? I have a tripod that isn't the best, but I think a wireless shutter release would be more than fine. The problem with my current tripod is that when I press down on the shutter release, the force of my finger causes the camera to move a little bit.

All suggestions welcome!
Cheers!

Best replacement for Nikon speedlight sb 600?

I'm in dire need to replace my nikon sb-600 speedlight.

However, i'm on a tight budget and would like to find a speedlight that would work in TTL and as good as SB-600. (Would prefer to be around its price too)

I have been looking around and there are abundance of speedlight that I have taken into account, ranging from Nikkon, Metz, YN, Nissin to Oloong.

However, I'm still divided to spend on which will be the best replacement, especially when I have don't have that much money to spare.

Any models that would be best?

Some that I have taken into considerations are:
Nikon SB-25
Yongnuo YN565 EX
Sigma EF 530 DG ST
Oloong SP 690
Nissin Di622
Metz 44 AF-1… I have never used a third party speedlight before, so that's kinda adds up to my worries.

Thank you in advance!

How to stabilize my camera?

So I recently got a Opteka SteadyVid SV-HD. I really love it. It works great. However I think I am balancing it wrong or something. I mean the stabilizer itself does the job perfectly. But I cant seem to control it that well. I have a Nikon D3200 with the kit lens mounted on the stabilizer. But I really cant seem to get 10 feet without the whole stabilizer wanting to turn in a certain direction. I also experience a swaying issue. When I am walking/running with the stabilizer. When I stop the thing always wants to sway. By that I mean the camera will be facing straight, but when I stop. The camera will look up and the counter weight will sway forward as well. I am very experienced with this camera. But I am really having issues with the stabilizer. Do you think my camera is too light for the weights? And how could I fix this?

My second question is on how to handle the stabilizer… I don't know how to hold it so I can control where the camera looks but still keep the footage steady even while running? Is there a certain technique I should be using. Any youtube videos that would help? I have seen a lot of videos on balancing stabilizers but nothing on handling it properly.

I shoot a lot of nature / landscape scenes where you have a bright sky, even on cloudy days, compared to a relatively dark target and often one gets blown out
i sometimes use in camera hdr but Nikon, for whatever reason, makes you revert to jpg to do so which can be a hassle, well not a hassle (I'm showing my lazy side lol )

Interfit ex300 is it worth it?

I was wondering about this kit? I have never used strobes before this is a first. I'm familiar with continuous lighting thats what I have. I'm looking to buy this kit.http://www.amazon.com/Interfit-EX300-Softbox-Umbrella-Heads/dp/tech-data/B002X6ZFEA/ref=de_a_smtd I k=know it's on amazon and you get what you pay for.but, I actually went into the camera exchange here in houston and they told me this was the best kit to buy a downgrade from the pro but still great for portraits. Portraits is mainly what I do Senior, family, maternity, new born. I have a fairly good dbusiness base where I'm from, and i'm looking to advnce to something a little more from continuous lighting.basically I just want user opinion is this a good buy or a wast of money? If you have this set would you mind posting some shots that you have done so I may get a feel for what I can do., I shoot with a Nikon D7000 which I LOVE! :) p.s. This is the SAME kit they were trying to sell me in the store, but about 200 dollars cheaper then what they were trying to sell me. I'm a little hesitant to buy from amazon but hey if I can save 200 dollars then why nor? :}

Should an amateur photographer sell their photos?

Can I use the Peleng 8mm fisheye lens with my Nikon D5100?

I've seen that it has an adaptor for Nikon but I'm not even completely sure what that means? I'm guessing that because it's an adaptor the shutter speed and aperture are controlled on the lens, rather than through my cameras controls?

I really want a fisheye lens, but for cheaper than what Nikkor offers, and something that isn't just a lens filter… So if this isn't compatible then something that is would be much appreciated. Please, & thank you!

Need expert photoshop opinion?

Would it be possible to photoshop myself sitting in this chair (the right one) without people knowing it's a photoshop? I would like to know if can be done easily (not by me but to pay someone on fiverr or something, I know some photoshop but not too much). Also, they say good light would be the best to take picture with so it will be easier to photoshop. So should I take the picture of myself outside in the sunlight? Any tips on taking the picture? Of course correct height and angle but what other details? Also, the camera I would be using is Nikon D5100 or D5200. Any tips on camera settings? I would want to use the picture to show my friends on Facebook and wouldn't want them to be able to prove that it's photoshoped. Also if there is a better website than fiverr please tell me.

Why won't my Nikon D3300 take more than 1000 photos?

I've only had this camera a few months and I cannot figure out why I can't take over 1000 photos. I rang Nikon today and they were pretty useless but they told me I should be able to take up to 9999 photos. Problem is, if I take 1001, 1002, 1003 etc photos then it starts to rewrite over photo 001, 002, 003 etc (and for some reason it doubles the file too, so when I look at them on the computer there are two copies of each shot). I technically can keep shooting but I will lose the first 1000 photos I started with. Why is this happening? My memory card is big enough to take over 2000 photos. The guy from Nikon told me to turn ON the setting File Number Sequence but I'm not in the mood right now to take 1000 photos to test out if this has fixed the problem.

What kind of camera can i get with these qualities for a reasonable price?

I have always had an interest in photography but im just starting to look into getting a -real- camera. I have a camera currently but its really just not cutting it. I got it in about 2008 and just… No. I want one that takes crystal clear photos. If you've ever looked through binoculars before at something that's fairly close, and then focused, i would love a camera that takes photos that clear. I love the artsy feel of close up photos but can never get that crystal clear shot.
Also i would like a fast shutter speed so that i can take action photos that will come out looking amazing. Im not sure if i can find one for a reasonable price with these qualities.
But for a reasonable price. I haven't done a ton of research on it yet but i found the canon rebel t5 and i heard it takes good action photos but are the photos going to come out clear with this camera. Keeping in mind that im an amateur photographer so im not really looking for a camera like a Nikon d5000 (although i would LOVE to have one) im looking for one no more expensive than $650. Ive tried to look for a while but i don't know where to start.

Thank you x

-I have a farm I can hunt whenever up Wyoming county right near keystone college, a lot of pretty much every game animal up there including coyotes the farmer tells me, however I was there this weekend on Saturday to Sunday hunting mornings to dark using a foxpro that my buddy has however we couldn't get anything in but crows. I know I should give it more time but I just want to get all the info I can.
-what is a good call to use for a beginner. ( mouth and electronic)
-I've also been looking at Nikon coyote specials with the 3 circle reticle. They seem pretty sweet however should I look into something else?
-should I get a red flash light scope mount for the scope? Or should I just stick to first and last lights of the day?
-what is a good bait to use for them I really just want to have the odds in my favor.
- I know this is a long and hard process to get the hang of figuring out these dogs but I'm ready to commit a lot of time forwards to so all the info you can give I'd appreciate.
-also if you hunt coyotes and need a new partner let me know I usually hunt every weekend. Thank you for reading all of this I appreciate it!

How does a lens adapter work?

How does a lens adapter work?
Added (1). I want to put a fisheye lens on my FinePix S4830, which is a point and shoot camera. I know point and shoot cameras don't have interchangeable lenses, but i heard about things called lens adapters. Can someone please explain how lens adapters work, and how I can get a fisheye onto my camera? Thanks in advance. I am a complete camera noob by the way.

Will a Nikkor 40mm f/2.8G macro lens be as good as a Nikkor 50mm f/1.8G lens?

I want to get a prime lens and I was wondering if I should get the 40mm macro or the 50mm. I do like taking pictures of small things (close up of flowers, plants, insects, etc.), but I also pictures in low light and portraits so I was wondering if the 1.0 difference in the f-stop will make the lens bad for low light photography. Both lens are about 200 dollars and as a broke college student it has to be one or the other.

Blurry edges on Nikon S6800?

I just bought a Nikon S6800 last night. I wanted a camera that would be good in general, but one that would also take good pictures of my nails/nail art.

However, I am not able to take proper macro pictures. The edges of my fingers are blurry, and even though I've set the white balance, the colors are still off.

I'm considering returning it, but I'm sure (well, I hope) there's something I can do to fix it. Anyone have any tips as to why this is happening?

Thank you in advance!

Difference between the NIKKOR 18-200mm, 18-300mm, and the 70-200mm?

I need a lens that has a good quality zoom (all the way) without narrowing down the range to much. It'll have to be good for nature as well as, portraits.

I do mostly nature photography at different times of the day so lighting can't be an issue. My portraits are rarely done in doors and are never in a studio.

My photographs can be viewed on FB.com/TheBeautyThruaLens.

Which lens should I buy? Price aside.
