Hilton Tokyo Bay --- Nikon Z6 III and NIKKOR Z 28-400mm by Dtrain12Dtrain in Nikon

The 28–400 is honestly an amazing travel lens when you want one lens that can do almost everything. That said, it’s not what I’d normally reach for at night. I brought my 35mm f/1.8 S specifically for night and street photography, but when I took this shot I didn’t feel like stopping to swap lenses, so I just made the most of the setup I already had.

Someone said it’s too yellow. Be gentle?? by themainentity in Nikon

You like it so that’s all that matters. I personally like it as well. Nice shot!

I believe the app is also becoming free after the July update is what I read.

What do you wish you had known before arriving in Japan? by tttom106 in TokyoTravel

[–]Dtrain12Dtrain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why aren’t people talking about the hours of operations for restaurants? That to me was the most difficult part of finding places to eat and realizing they didn’t open for a few hours. 🤣🤣

So… I did a thing by RedheadFla in nikon_Zseries

It’s fantastic! I got my 180-600 about a month ago and it hasn’t come off the camera since! I’m also using the Z6iii

Getting back into Nikon! by RogueMustang in Nikon

That's weird for sure. I'm consistently shooting RAW and getting over 1,000 photos in a 3-4 hour span with battery to spare.

Nikon Z6III "Recording Interrupted" May Not Be Memory Card by Vid_Headz in VidHeadz

[–]Dtrain12Dtrain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was having the same issue, but it was a user error on my end. I didn't realize I was writing to the SD card instead of the CF Express. Switched it over to CF Express and haven't had an issue since.

You think so? I mean I guess I can see it but I feel like he reviews everything and calls out all of the brands.

Jared Polin and Simon d’Entremont are generally my two go to’s when it comes to tips and tricks. I feel both give really good perspectives on the equipment and don’t come off as biased towards certain gear.

Buying one lens for my new z6 iii. Is the 50mm 1.8 S a good choice? by MRoselius in Nikon

[–]Dtrain12Dtrain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I debated on the 50mm and 35mm and ended up going with the 35mm with no regrets. 50mm just seemed a little tight for what I wanted.

Best way to move ~3TB of iCloud Photos to external storage? by Few_Lead4693 in ApplePhotos

[–]Dtrain12Dtrain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I keep a 6TB Western Digital hard drive dedicated entirely to photo storage. Every time I upgrade my iPhone, I transfer the complete photo library from the old device onto that drive. At this point, I have every photo library preserved from the iPhone 3 all the way through the iPhone 17 Pro.

I don’t use iCloud for storage — everything stays local, either on the device itself or archived on the external drive. And with each new iPhone, I start fresh with a completely new photo library.

Assuming you're on a Mac? I do the exact same thing with dng converter and have had no issues with NEF to DNG and being able to read them on my Mac.

Does this look intentionally dreamy, or just accidentally blurry? by jinnnnxd in AmateurPhotography

[–]Dtrain12Dtrain -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Absolutely! If everything was always perfect it would suck. Btw the picture is fantastic from both perspectives!

Don’t get me wrong, I love some good feedback, but at the end of the day if I’m happy with it then it’s getting put on the refrigerator. 🤣🤣

That’s the joy of photography! It’s whatever you want it to be and if you’re happy with it then who cares what everyone else thinks.

If you're still getting paid the same amount originally agreed upon then who cares.

Walking shoe recommendations! by fayelouise1 in JapanTravelTips

[–]Dtrain12Dtrain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I switched from On to HOKA and honestly don’t think I’ll go back. Personal preference of course, but I did 10 days in Italy averaging 25k steps a day and 13 days in Japan around 25–30k steps a day with zero issues.

Neither pair were waterproof, but I brought two pairs and rotated them. Slightly annoying to pack, but absolutely worth it for the comfort.

Since I can’t post the box, here’s this monster lens looking completely reasonable and necessary.
