Upgrading from a Nikon D3200 to a full frame?


I've been shooting with a D3200 for 2-3 years now and it's worked well for me so far. However, I plan on pursuing photography professionally (that's my major) and I believe I'm due for an upgrade. I mainly shoot portrait, in-studio and fashion, and some landscape (also my dog and other animals, but that probably doesn't matter). I want to purchase a full-frame, but I don't want to sell my soul in order to afford it. Is it worth upgrading to a full frame? I was thinking D600/700. The lenses I use the most are 35mm and 85mm. Thanks

Multiple microphones input to one audio input jack? Splitter?


I have a nikon D3200. Its a nice and easy to use camera but I'm not a huge fan of the tools and such that can be used with it. I like the idea of having an audio input on the camera but I am not sure what its limits are. So, I want to have 2 microphones plugged in and both recording what I am filming (More depth to the sound and more options as to what I can record) I want to conduct interviews with this camera. I have two handheld Audio Technica microphones that have a 3.5mm jack that plug into my camera. I would really prefer to be able to use both at the same time and have both plugged into the cameras single audio input jack. How would i go about doing this? Use a splitter and just plug the mics into the ports or what? I don't have many options as to what I can buy. I will be in another country (specifically Haiti) and electricity and all that isn't an option. Thanks!

I have hears that the ART series is only for F mounts and will only autofocus on full frame Nikon bodies. But then I have also seen that it will autofocus on a D5100.

How important is a touchscreen for video work and filmmaking?


I am thinking of buying a Nikon D5300 as my first camera for video and filmmaking purposes. I have researched very heavily and find this one to be the best.

The only problem is, there's a Nikon D5500, and I'm struggling to choose one.

The D5300 is about 350 dollars cheaper, and the two of them are pretty much identical; but the D5500 has a touchscreen, and the D5300 doesn't.

Just how important is a touchscreen for video production? Would you say that the D5500 is worth the money? Please note that this money is almost vitally needed in other places.

Light meter for petri v6 ii?


this one's my uncles he gave it to me. I don't have a light meter that goes with it (mini shoe mount meters would be my preference)

Can anyone help? I don't like selenium meters since I've heard reliability issues.

thanks in advance.

How to take clear action photographs using a Nikon D3000 camera?


I currently purchased a Nikon D3000 camera and I have gone through the user's manual and video to figure out the best way to take clear action shots and I have been unsuccessful. I have the 18-55mm and 55-200mm lens but not sure what are the best settings on the camera to help me get the clear pictures I want. The pictures that I am taking are at dusk and at night in a football stadium where my son plays football. I have tried making adjustments but with no luck. I am feeling very frustrated since I am new to using these types of cameras. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
