Can a 30min exposure damage my camera or sensor in any way?


I recently purchased a nikon d5200 camera. I did a 30min exposure with iso 800 and f/3.5 at night for a star trail but because I haven't done a star trail before I just kinda guessed the settings, the photo ended basically being white except for the tree in the fore ground. I worry a lot and cant get this thought out of my mind. Will my camera or cmos sensor be fine?

What other companies made Nikon Lens?


My uncle gave up his D700 for me because he got a better camera. The problem I had when I got it was that I didnt have a lens, my uncle wanted to keep his lens. My other uncle is also crazy about photography, he has 7 great lens at home. Each of them cost a fortune. I asked if I can borrow one of his lens, he gave up his Sigma lens to me. I have never heard of Sigma, but that lens works so great on my camera. From there, I wonder what other companies made lens for Nikon. Is it worth it to buy those lens?

Nikon D3000, D3100, and D5000?

For Christmas my family bought me a Nikon D3000, I asked for a D5000, but my mom got me the D3000 since it was cheaper. It looks like a good camera too, but my mom gave me the choice to return it tomorrow to get the money back and buy a D5000 with the rest of my Christmas money. Should I spend $200 more to upgrade to the D5000? Or keep the D3000? I'm looking for good quality pictures, I think both models have great quality, but the D5000 is better.

Another option I have, is the return the D3000, and get a D3100. Which camera would be a better choice? The D3100 or the D5000?

Which should be my new Nikon DSLR camera? - 1


My uncle let me borrow his Nikon D700 camera for the summer with a really good lens, the 70-200mm 2.8-5. Something. I love how I can manually change the iso and aperture quicker than those beginner level cameras. Then my uncle bought a better camera and let me have his D700. I am thinking about selling the D700. If I do, my budget for a new camera would be 1200 dollars. Just for an upgrade and new model. I would also want a new lens included in that budget because I have my 70-200mm back to my uncle:/

What Should be My Next Nikon Lens?


Hi there! Im abran, My uncle got me into Photography a year back, when I was a freshman in High School, And since then, I kept liking it. I First Used a Canon 600D with 18-55 kit lens, and Currently Im using. A nikon d7100 with 18-140 VR lens. I bought this camera a few months back, Im still learning though. I have saved up around $500 for a new lens ( It dosent have to be $500 exactly ) I mean I cant spend more than 500 on a lens. I like to shoot Landscape more, rather than portraits. Few of my friends suggested me to get the Nikon 35mm/50mm prime lens, But im not sure if it will be a good idea, because Mostly primes are for portraits. I do capture portraits too, but not always. Someone who has experience in Photography would be a little helpful to decide what kind of lens I should Get.

This is my album in my Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/abran.tasrif/albums/639887112690124/

Hi All,
Looking to buy a good quality pocket size (or near) camera but am a little stumped as to which. While I want it to take great photos overall I do shoot a lot low light/night action shots and video.
I like to take a lot of concert videos in small venues so it would have to be really good/great (image stabilization) in that respect. Stereo sound as well. I have narrowed it down to these but would like opinions from actual owners. Thanks in advance!

Why can't I use a Canon speedlight off camera as a slave to a Nikon's optical trigger?


How does the speedlight know that Canon is not sending the trigger flash?

Is there some kind of radio signal from my Canon camera telling my Canon speedlight to go off? Then why can't it work without the flash? Because there is no radio trigger, you have to pay extra for that, and it only works for the 600ex rt.

So how does it know?

And how the heck does it read the TTL information?

side note: Girlfriend uses Nikon (has commander mode). Yongnuo speedlight works as a slave for both our cameras (doesn't have TTL).

Confused about what lens can fit on camera bodies?


I know that Canon lenses fit on Canon, and Nikon on Nikon, but I'm not exactly sure what mounts are and the EF-S etc. I have a T3i Rebel and I've had my 18-55 f/3.5-5.6 for about two years and recently switched the new 50mm 1.8 STM, and I love the switch. I'm considering about purchasing Canon's pancake EF-S 24mm f/2.8 STM to kind of get a wider angle, as well as using my 50mm f/1.8 for it's focal length. By the way, will that specific pancake lens work on my Canon T3i? Thank you so much to the answer who thoroughly explains mounts, EF-S, what lenses fit on which bodies! :)

Should I trade 7mm for a Non-Magnum Cartridge?

Should I trade 7mm mag for non-magnum cartridge?
last year i bout a browning x bolt stainless 7mm rem mag with a nikon monarch 3-12x42.

I like to shoot my guns alot and being that im still young i cant ever shoot the 7mm as much as I would like because the ammo is fairly expensive. Origionally I I thought I might do an elk or caribou hunt within the next couple years but that plan never fell through. So right now all i hunt is whitetail. I also dont honestly enjoy shooting my rifle because of the recoil. I shoot fine with it but i would like to enjoy shooting with a rifle if i could.

im interested into long range shooting and i would like to get good out to 600 yards but i dont shoot enough to perfect that range yet.

My question is should I trade my 7mm mag for a non magnum cartridge? Can you give me some ideas, i was thinking 25-06, is that a good choice?

I will still probably end up going elk hunting in the future but if worst comes to worst i think i would just buy a different gun with bigger cartridge.

Would i be able to trade a 1 year old 7 mag for a non magnum new x bolt stainless straight up? Or would i have to give cash? And how much?
Should i do a private sell then use the cash to buy a new one?

also i plan on keeping my scope

help and ideas are greatly appreciated

Any tips on using ND Filters?


I bought three ND Filters for my Nikon today in hope of perfecting my photography. Now, so far most of my work has been classed as 'snapshots' (totally agree, check Instagram: @ishayc0). After setting up my Flickr ( https://www.flickr.com/photos/100532881@N03 ), I wanted to start using said filters for daytime long exposures. However, I'm not quite sure what you would use the filters for (I know, bad idea buying without Really knowing). So I thought maybe someone can point out their main uses and what situations to use them in.
Filters are ND2,ND4 & ND8.
Thank you.

What to bring on safari?


I'm planning on going to Zambia in a few years, and I will be bringing my Nikon SLR as well as my Canon SLR and a few lenses. So my question is what would be some camera bags that you would recommend? I need a bag that can carry what I've posted above as well as a lap top. A way to carry a tripod would be a plus but is not a huge requirement. While I'm at it too I know I'll need some sort of jacket when it cools off so what would you guys recommend? The company I was looking at doing it through recommends clothing that will blend in with the landscape.

Am I good enough at photography to consider becoming a professional?


I started off with a Fujifilm bridge camera when I was 13, and I think my photos back then were pretty decent.
Now I'm 16 and armed with a Nikon D3200.
I seemed to have arrived at some crossroads. Should I become a pro photographer? Or should I keep it as a hobby?
I took a photography course, so I'm very familiar with the technical aspects of my camera, and please be aware I use MANUAL mode.
I would like to specialize in Nature photography and I'm considering War photography, despite the fact you'll all say I'm not thinking straight.
I do not use filters, I simply edit my photos.

Check out my Instagram and let me know, thank you:) https://instagram.com/ishayc0/
All criticism is well received!

Im kind of a noob at photography but i really like the low light dark sinister pictures. But everytime i take a photo it becomes blurry or bleached out. Even if i hold perfectly still. I always have to use the flash but then the dark feeling is gone. Before i take the photo i look in the viewfinder or on the screen and it looks amazing but CLICK and its **** xD I tried the different "easy" settings and didnt customize anything myself.
I use a Nikon D3200 with a 18-55mm objective. Please help.

Selling my old camera?


I don't know if my camera is even worth spelling. It's about 8 years old and it's a DSLR. It's a Nikon D40. They're selling brand new for $500 currently. Reason I'm asking is because I misplaced a brand new modern camera that was a gift and now I want to sell this old one for money towards a new one that was the gift.

About the rule of 180 degrees and achieve film look in the videos?


I am an amateur and want to learn cinematography.To achieve the film look for a video, a very well known and widely used phenomenon is the rule of 180 degrees. I have found this over and over and across the numerous websites, blogs articles and books.
So taking this as basic rule to be followed, I started shooting videos in 25 fps and 50 shutter speed settings. But one day I was shooting some video outdoors in bright day sunlight. So due to excessive light, using the above settings, the video was extremely over exposed and every thing was looking bright. To correct the exposure, I had to increase the shutter speed up to around 1000th of a second and then the video got correctly exposed.(my ISO was 200 and aperture 3.5 using Nikon D3200)
So now my question is that following such changes in shutter speed, will it affect my video to achieve the film look? This is the breach of 180 degree rule too. What should one do in such circumstances?

I need to a better set of lenses for my Nikon D5300 camera?


I just have Nikon kit lens of 18-55. I do shoot at narrow apertures to get the better sharpness. But I would like to improve even further.

I was thinking at prime lens 35mm by nikon f1.77

or sigma 18-35mm or 17-70mm How is the sharpness from these?

I do not care about shooting videos much.

Also to increase the zoom range i was thinking about Nikon 55-200mm,

the old 55-200mm VR is £125.00 the new 55-200mm VR II is £250 is this new version really worth of extra money?is there a difference in sharpness?

thanks

Which Canon DSLR camera fits me best?


Hello, my 18th birthday is coming up and I really want a Canon DSLR camera. But Im too confused. At my high school, in grades 10 and 11 we had a mandatory photography class so I actually know a bit about it but there are too many cameras to choose from. I want to take pictures of nature, places and occasionally normal friend pictures. Im going to England after my 18th birthday and That s where Im planning to take a lot of nature pictures. I usually take pictures with my friends using my iphone but If let s say Im spending a vacation abroad, Id take pictures using the Camera. But it s mainly nature and video/vlogging focused. Also, I dont want to break the bank since this would be my first camera and Im not a pro. So Id like it to be under 1000$. And a camera with good focus. Ive used a Nikon camera before since my cousin owns one (dont remember the model) and I liked it but not as much as the canon. Ive used a canon EOS 600D (i think it s the rebel t3 in America?) For my photography class, Our class was based on it. I loved it and that was my top choice for picking a camera but I d like to know if there are other Canon s that suit my purpose better. Thank you!

Lens recommendations for a beginner in photo/videography?


I own a Nikon D3300 with the standard 18-55 Nikkor that came with the camera when I bought it. I'm enrolled in film school and it's about to begin shortly, so I'd like to know what kind of lenses I would probably need for shooting videos. We will cover commercials, documentaries, some photography, short films, etc. I've been told to get a wide angle lens by a few people, but I'm thinking of a zoom lens as well… Anyway, any recommendations? Please explain in simple terms since I probably won't understand most of the technical jargon and I'm still a beginner. Thanks in advance.
Added (1). B K: I've learned about lenses and focal lengths and finished the first year of film school (sorry if my talk of being a beginner sounds like I haven't learned anything, but by rights I'm still very much a newbie compared to my classmates) and the 18-55 has been enough so far. But I was advised to get new lenses since second year will be more intense. I know I'd need new equipment sooner or later, and I'd like to buy them now since I'm on holiday and they're a lot cheaper in my home country.
Added (2). B K: Yes. I've tried to get more information on what projects we'll do next, but the best I got is "documentaries and short films." So definitely nothing crazy like wildlife or sports just yet. I guess I'm looking for an all-around lens that can fit multiple purposes? Sorry for the lack of information, but thank you anyway for your answer and consequent updates.
