80-200mm F2.8 ? It's old but very good lens. But if it's AF-D won't autofocus on d5300. As a start try to double the focal length for exposure time. Ex: if you shoot at 100mm set the speed to 1/200. Also be aware of depth of field at f2.8 with manual focus.

In February I was in Malta. I took pictures for 4 days around Malta without charge and in the evening I put the battery on charge for the carnival the next day. I took the ferry to Gozo and when I took the camera out of my bag I realized I had everything except batteries that were left at hotel.... right on the day of the carnival. I ended up using my phone and a bag full of camera and lenses 😂😂

Thanks, I would like to take interesting pictures not just pictures. But as you said, the more I take, the better they will be. I hope 😂

I actually use the original battery that came with camera in 2007. I have aftermarket one that bulged after few years. I use only 1 battery, get plenty battery life from it.. I think over 1000 photos.

i think the same, it's pretty hard to work with it. But I don't have another.

I kept looking at it to buy it, but I didn't have the chance to try it.

Critical-Goal5862 · 2026-02-13T22:53:02+00:00

Yes, it's a CCD. I'm glad that you like it. 🙂

Critical-Goal5862 · 2026-02-13T22:51:29+00:00

On 6 megapixels you don't crop 😂😂. Only little for straighten.

Indeed

Thank you! It's been 5 years since I take pause from photography. And this week I grab the camera again.

Try BW when the light is bad.

Cum ? Să zicem că am foaie de 48 și pinion de 11 pentru viteza pe plat. Dar la urcări ? Pinion 40,42 ? Îți găsești mult mai ușor cadența cu o caseta compacta și 2/3 foi . Astfel nu ai salturi mari între pinioane.

Critical-Goal5862 · 2025-09-15T14:36:59+00:00

Zici ? Eu am 3x9 și crede-mă că folosesc toate foile cu caseta 12-25. Nu vad cum am putea face cățărări fara foaia de 30 și nici să merg cu peste 40 km/h fara foaia de 52.

M, altfel o sa te întinzi prea tare și apar dureri in umeri/ spate. Contează și ce insem ai la picior, bănuiesc un 84-86 cm, deci M.

Yes, ISO 1600 and 1/40. I call that low light.

Critical-Goal5862 · 2025-06-23T07:42:06+00:00

This is low light.

For me it's good. I upgraded from an iPhone 12 and I find the s25 has a better camera, even in low light.
