All the pictures I take on Nikon 1 are blurry?

This is my first "expensive" camera and every picture I take is blurry. Is it me or the camera. I tried taking pictures of my dogs playing and every single one was incredibly blurry.

Is there a place where I can buy the Canon G7x mark 2?


It won't let me add to cart on the best buy website, and it isn't in the store near me, on amazon it is a 100 dollar difference (if it comes down to it, I will cough up the extra money need be, but it is 780 on amazon, and 680 on best buy, there is an "international version" but I don't know what that means, like if it is a fake camera or something). Is there another store where I can buy it from that is trust-worthy and that has it in-stock?
Added (1). It is also on backorder on the canon website, any thoughts on when it will be back in stock?

Is it possible to modify a Nikon F3 to add a needle light meter?


I am having issues with the +- light meter in my Nikon F3. The classic needle meter has always been my favorite, so it would be the best of both worlds to have that meter in my favorite SLR.

Any ideas?

Just bought used nikon d3200. Wont take pictures without sd card.


I bought a used nikon d3200 today. It didn't come with an sd card but it seems to be working except Im not able to take pictures without an sd card in it. Everything else seems fine, I was able to change settings on info and menu to use it manually. It's my 1st dslr camera so I've got plenty to learn from it. So is this normal that Im not able to shoot without a memory card? I just wanna make sure there's nothing wrong with it before spending more $ on a memory card, I just dont know how if I could shoot without it. Couldn't find anything on google about it either. Thanks for any help in advance.

Do all film SLRs suffer from gummy light seals? Which ones do not?


I love the manual-control design of the 80's era film SLRs and I currently own a Canon AE-1 Program and a Nikon FE that I recently picked up.

I haven't had the chance to test out my Nikon yet but the Canon has been fantastic, with the exception of the light leaks, a problem that seems to plague many SLRs of this era.

I'm aware that the light seals are relatively easy to replace but I'm a bit worried about damaging the internals and I haven't given it a try yet.

Is my FE likely to have problems with light leaks? Also, since I own more FD lenses, are there any Canon FD bodies that do not suffer from this problem?

What is the resolution of my camera?


I have a Nikon D3300 for my photography class it says I need a "fully adjustable digital camera having a resolution of 6-megapixels or greater" does my camera cut it? I'm sort of a noob when it comes to photography but I figured since I have a camera I should take a class in photography. Thank you!

Nikon D3200, beginner's advice and help?


Hello all,

I've always fancied the photographer lifestyle and wanted to actually try it now that I have time on my hands. I've read loads of websites containing guidelines. However, I've come across an obstacle.

My shooting setting is on Shutter mode. I increased my ISO to 3200. I'm just taking pictures in my room: white background and orange tinted lamp. F25 aperture. Manual lens focus.

When I take the photo, it comes out blurry! Please help.
