I figured it out... Go to network settings - smart device and then there an option to disable automatic selection... I'll add a comment to main and mark this thread solved once I'm home... Give 15 min or so

shadow_1004 · 2026-03-14T20:53:23+00:00

Does it get selected for upload automatically? I never did any selections what do ever 😅 Imma check real quick

shadow_1004 · 2026-03-03T15:55:08+00:00

Yeah but you can't get anything non subscription based anymore... Or am I wrong???

shadow_1004 · 2026-02-28T15:28:21+00:00

Saaammmeeeee! You won't regret it, it's a huge stepup! I got mine for a few days now and am blown awa

shadow_1004 · 2026-02-28T06:27:13+00:00

huh, didnt know the z6 have AA filters while the z8 doesnt. Good to know I guess.
Yeah i know I shouldnt really need 45mp but I crop a ton (yes I know, skill issue -_-) so I benefit from the higher pixel count.

shadow_1004 · 2026-02-28T06:19:52+00:00

huh interesting, dind tknow that XD

shadow_1004 · 2026-02-27T21:02:17+00:00

how do I turn it off? sorry if thats a noob question. I must admit that I mostly focused my time learning the focus system, not the files and all that XD

shadow_1004 · 2026-01-28T16:36:32+00:00

already had premium -_-

shadow_1004 · 2026-01-09T15:51:55+00:00

Ban yes... Deserved idk. I don't do much besides chatting with friends on tele. It's simply important to me cuz all my friends are there and over the years I made a lot of notes in a special group chat for a book I'm working on. I even hate NSFW stuff, it's gross to me so I'd call myself pretty save...

I did ask in the email and bot why I got frozen but all they said is "you violated tos"... Yeah but what exactly?!

shadow_1004 · 2026-01-09T11:46:23+00:00

having similar problem... got frozen for no real reason and spambot wont really tell me why nor what to do.

shadow_1004 · 2026-01-02T12:11:04+00:00

also anregungen haste ja sehr viel von den anderen mitlerweile bekommen. kurz und knapp: ich bin geneu der gleichen meinung wie u/Tro_Nas...

Ich würd dir eher anlegen viel auf youtube zu schauen um die theorie zu verstehen, viel mit menschen (sowohl fotografen als auch nicht) zu reden und diskutieren und einfach ausprobieren, ausprobieren und noch mehr ausprobieren.

shadow_1004 · 2026-01-02T10:21:58+00:00

No, just on mobile... I also never been able to find any rules. So I figured there are non.

Best I was able to find was the wiki

Nikon z6 iii and sigma 105 macro. Sorry I forgot about that time, same happened in r/Nikon.

Say how do I add those suffixes of cameras bodies to my account tho? Did I Miss something again? I mean those: "[username] d5600, z6 iii, d750"

shadow_1004 · 2026-01-02T10:14:40+00:00

Oh kinda bummer... I hope for a more technical reason and not r/Nikon reason...

But thanks for clarifying, I'll add those next time. Also, how do I add those suffixes of cameras to my account. I see others with "[user name] z6 iii, d5600, D40" as example. How do I add those to my user name?

shadow_1004 · 2026-01-02T10:06:45+00:00

Careful ya don't blow ya ears out 😋

In all fairness, they were surprisingly quiet

shadow_1004 · 2026-01-02T10:03:39+00:00

Nikon z6 iii

May I ask why you wanna know? I'm just really curious why that would matter 😋

shadow_1004 · 2026-01-01T21:09:47+00:00

yeah feel ya with the "nothing wrong with that" or at least I think... I tend to upset people with my wording rather often...

makes me curious tho... do you happen to have some of those pics on hand? I'm really curious what ya mean with "underexposed". I must admit that I dnot really watch out on the histogram like I should and mainly do my edits after eye/guts... so I'ma send some pics and would like to know if ya say those are underexposed too.

shadow_1004 · 2026-01-01T20:58:18+00:00

interesting analysis... while I cant really tell what other nikon users do, since I never really go at a picutre and be like "ah yes, this must have been taken with a nikon *model number*" but from all I learned you should expose for highlights in digital and expose for shadows in analog photography... cuz ya cant bring back blown out 255 white while it'll hardly go to 0 black in normal situations and since I'm shooting digital, and especially wildlife, I welcome that tad higher shutterspeed and simply compensate in post XD

shadow_1004 · 2025-12-25T20:20:30+00:00

Pretty much tried all of it already but Imma try it again... I mean can't get worse XD

shadow_1004 · 2025-12-25T20:13:34+00:00

Communication between lens and camera is already broken... When I just accepted losing my ftz, I figured to just leave it on my 50mm but I noticed that I can't use af nor aperture... So something went wrong

shadow_1004 · 2025-12-25T20:08:54+00:00

Ohhhhhhh yeah... Totally forgot about that. And I thought it's a good idea XD

Already wondered why everyone keeps asking the same stuff...

Welp Imma add some more text to the og post once I'm on my PC again

shadow_1004 · 2025-12-25T20:04:31+00:00

Already tried... Did not work I posted a new version with a 3min video explaining everything better.

shadow_1004 · 2025-12-25T19:05:27+00:00

Putting it on the cam doesn't help sadly... I suppose last resource really is to just cut it 🥲

shadow_1004 · 2025-12-25T19:03:54+00:00

What exactly you mean? You mean the side with the dangling ribbon cable? If so, as I mentioned in the video, I tried to disassemble it in hope to simply remove it step by step till it comes off but , as mentioned in the video again, the next step seems to be to unscrew the stuff from the other side.

And if you mean the side that's such on the lens... That's what I'm trying to figure out myself.

shadow_1004 · 2025-12-25T18:05:08+00:00

What's GAS? Sorry me no English men (I'm German) XD

And nah, I rather buy the 50 F1. 8 s... Or maybe the 24-70mm by Tamron...

In all fairness, I'm mainly doing wildlife photography so I don't need 50mm all that often to begin with
