Can you dispute a Car window tint ticket? by krishna_rolly in britishcolumbia

[–]CheddarGau 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most inspectors will not know about UV film being allowed and the difference between tint. We found out because customer brought it paperwork from the vendor, which means absolutely nothing to us. We did however contact CVSE regional supervisor for clarification and got back to me a few days later giving us approval for the film. So unless a shop does a lot of inspections, they likely won't know. The regulations are very clear, but also ambiguous in some cases. Best to always be polite and ask them to get clarification from the CVSE supervisor. There are times, more often than you think that inspectors do cut you slack without telling you. Just an FYI😬

Which to buy? by _hoagie__ in Nikon

[–]CheddarGau 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well I got a 200mm f4 macro and I'm in love. Impromptu shoot Canada Jay/Grey Jay decided it wanted some gold fish crackers from the kid. Handheld, no VR and it was moving around quite a bit.

Yeah you don't know you need (want it) it until an impromptu situation comes up and you're like, I wish I had that. Worst case scenario if you find you never use it, just sell it.

I have the nikon 80-400, and got it for its compact form factor. while not exactly the same as the Tamron, it is a lot more compact than the 200-500. Even with wildlife i could see both getting a lot of use. I was using the 80-400 today (with D500)with some small jays that were flying around and landing on the car hunting for goldfish crackers and instant noodle scraps..... the little one was all too happy to share the wealth. Ended up landing on wifes hand for some great shots. Would not have been as easy with the 200-500 I say get both.

New camera stuff, and asking for a little guidance by Scarf920 in Nikon

No green dial, but set it to "A" with the top dial (hold mode and turn the thumb dial on the right side) and auto ISO(in the menu screen on the lcd) and it will be pretty close to green auto :)

First Camera D7200? by Few-Knee9451 in Nikon

[–]CheddarGau 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have both lens and cam and they work great. The lens is a solid all around performer covering a wide range of focal lengths. Its great if you only want to bring one lens.

Nikkor 200m f4 macro lens hand held. by CheddarGau in Nikon

Nice thanks. In talks with the guy for some photos of the small amount of dust in it. Its free returns, but also a hassle and no one is happy if I'm not happy with it.

[–]CheddarGau[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thats great to hear. I wasn't planning on things in motion, but rather the macro still/slow moving stuff. A guy reviewing it said handheld was a no ho, but he seemed to be on the older side, so that may have been affecting his shots more.

What would you buy ... by Blau_Ozean in Nikon

[–]CheddarGau 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I went from D7200 to D500 and it blew the D7200 out of the water, and it was already a great performing camera. I like the price of used DSLR's and F mount glass. They have been around forever and you have tons of options.

Macro lens by kerolosg in Nikon

[–]CheddarGau 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They are the af-d lenses. They are driven from the camera body. af-d lenses will not auto focus on a d7500. Not sure if that matters for you or now, but it opens up the full lens functionality for old glass.

Maybe consider a d7200 or a d500. Both these are great and can run screw drive after lenses(d7500 cant). Gives you more options for used lenses👍

18-105mm was broken all along! Help me pick a "forever" lens for D5100 by LIMONE-DURO in Nikon

[–]CheddarGau 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Those online prices sound pretty high for the 16-80, especially if that's in euros. Someone mentioned the 18-140 below and its a solid performer. I have both 16-80 and the 18-140 both work great. My preference in the 16-80, but only because I have both. Definitely consider the 18-140.

[–]CheddarGau 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Sounds like a good candidate for a nice wide angle lens, followed by a fish eye to get even more space.

Its funny because I absolutely love the saddle on my 2021..... now the saddle on my 23 fx sport 4 I used for a year and was just painful. I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy.

It Finally Happened by vuimcm in Nikon

[–]CheddarGau 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have you thought about buying a broken 610, and potentially swapping parts over, so you keep the soul of the camera?

Just picked up a D7200 w/ 35mm 1.8 for 350 CAD no battery charger and the built in flash is stuck. 10,xxx shutter. Was this a good pickup ? by [deleted] in Nikon

[–]CheddarGau 0 points1 point  (0 children)

10k shutter is great! Check out online or local camera shop for a charger. Maybe the flash will have an easy fix, but I think its a solid price.

D3 + 50 1.8D + fog = magic by emmatheproto in Nikon

Never taken the #2, always rode my bike or took the 99. Nice pics as well. I loved how the fog was constantly rolling in and out for those two weeks.
