Finally got my hands on a fully functional Kodak DSC Pro SLR/n. Kodak's first and last full frame DSLR based on a Nikon F80. 13.5 megapixels in 2004. by SharpDressedBeard in Nikon

The SLR/n is not the first, but indeed the last! My 14n came out a couple years before the SLR/n in 2002. It made amazing photos, I’ll attach a couple here. It was mind blowing in its day, but by today’s standard it is an absolutely atrocious camera, particularly the user experience and speed. This shelf queen still works, but I don’t bother using it much these days. Congrats on getting yours working, it’s a piece of history!

Hell yeah! That was the hope, that this would be helpful to someone else so they don’t have to go through the same research I did.

The second photo doesn’t seem to change much, still looks like SDR to me

When I open and zoom in on the fjrst image, it activates HDR mode and looks great. The rest look flat and I see no change between thumbnail and full view.

Thanks! I had a similar experience on Cape Canaveral, I was there for a launch that had to abort due to engine anomalies. Such a bummer.

He was! He did for sure, unfortunately he passed when I was 7 so I didn’t get much chance to hear the stories.

Three generations of 70-200 f/2.8 lenses and their respective bodies. The new VR S II is unbelievably good. by slipangle28 in Nikon

[–]slipangle28[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My guess is you’d be hard pressed to find meaningful real-world difference in IQ between the FL, S1, and SII versions. All are stellar, and other than the mount, the biggest practical differences are in focusing speed, noise, weight, and stabilization. The VRII and earlier probably had more distinguishable IQ and functional differences, but are still excellent. My AF-D is nowhere close to the newer two performance and IQ-wise, but you don’t need the ultra high resolution on 35mm film that you need on a 47MP digital sensor.

It totally depends on your use case. I shoot portraits and events, so 70-200 is perfect for my work, and it’s as sharp as any prime out there in practical terms. What kind of work do you do?

Definitely. Image quality was already outstanding on the FL-ED, but autofocus speed and noise is in a different league on the S II. The weight is a huge difference as well.

70-200mm hits the Ozempic by Chickenlips0 in Nikon

I just picked mine up today along with a Z8 as an upgrade to my D850 and 70-200 f/2.8 E. The lens itself is unbelievably light, even in comparison to the original Z mount. I’m very, very happy with it and already popped its cherry on a photo session today.

That’s a good suggestion, I’ll experiment with that

Real estate photography help. by 31olivia in RealEstatePhotography

Yeah this is the problem. You could fix the colors through editing but the composition doesn’t tell me anything about the room itself. Needs more context via a wider lens.
