AI-S lens compatibility with Nikon D7000?


I have a 80-200mm F/4 AI-S and it's not metering with my D7000. I've heard that D7000 is compatible with old lenses. I'm getting F/0 on my display.

Does 105mm Macro lens take much better pictures than a 40mm Macro lens?


I am sorry for the silly question, is that I am a very beginner in photography, and after purchasing a Nikon D5300 last July, I have been practising taking macro pictures with a 40mm Micro Lens, and sometimes use reversed kit lens to take super-macro photos…
I like the lens I have, but I was looking at the prices of that 105mm macro lens, and wondering if I could make better macro photos with that… Is it worth? The price is spicy… It has to be worth lol…
Added (1). Thank you

How to fix a camera lens with water in it?


I have recently, way too recently, bought a digital camera (Nikon S7000) and got water into the lens.

I don t mean dropped the camera into water, but when I went outside in the snow to take photos yesterday I slipped and a bit of snow went on the lens.

I have wiped this off with a lens wipe and the outer lens looks clean, with no smudges, but when I try to take photos they are blurry.

Could the water/snow have gotten into another layer of lens or something?
And how can I fix it? Does it need to be sent a pro or do I need a replacement?

As you can tell I am not at all a camera expert, I know nothing about cameras, so any help is appreciated.
Thanks.

Nikon 70-200 f2.8 VR vs Tamron 70-200 f2.8 VC?


I can't seem to decide between the Nikon 70-200 f2.8 VR (first version, not the newer VR II one) or the Tamron 70-200 VC (newer version, not the older macro one).

I understand that the older Nikon 70-200 f2.8 vr has terrible corners on FX, but that is not a bother to me, as corners don't matter to me in my field of work.

They are both weathersealed but the Nikon has the focus ring in front of the zoom ring, which I prefer. The Nikon one is also a $1490, while the Tamron is $1390, both quite close.

Yes, I am aware of the 80-200, but I feel there is a need for stabilization, especially at the 200mm end. The 70-200 f4 is too slow for my needs.

Quite torn on which one to get!

How to connect my Nikon D40x usb port to the Firewire 400 port in my Macbook?

I want to use the Application 'Image Capture' on my Macbook but for image Capture to work i need to connect my Camera (Nikon D40x) via firewire, but my camera doesnt have a firewire port, all it has is a small USB port and a v-out port. Is there any way for it to connect? Firewire to usb maybe? Or are there any Firewire adapters (might be making those up) about that would in anyway connect to the camera?
