Amazon runs a great offer on a great lens – Nikon 24-70mm f/2.8 ED G. It has $360 off and sells for only $1439.99.
If you don’t like the weight and size of the new VR version, and of course don’t need the Vibration Reduction, don’t miss the offer.

Sony has an active recall for some of their SEL50F14Z Planar T* FE 50mm F1.4 ZA lenses, which have been found to have instances of fogging inside the lens.

Serial Numbers:

• 1800001 to 1810699

We have a long, almost 20 years, relationship with Nikon. It was not very easy to write this article, especially on Friday 13th, and coincidentally on the 100th anniversary of Nikon.

After the marvelous F100 (1999), N80(F80) (2000), and FM3A (2001), my first digital camera from Nikon was Coolpix 4300. That little 4 mpx camera changed the way I was looking at Photography, when it was released in 2002. It was so small and convenient to bring everywhere that I found myself constantly taking pictures of everything,  experimenting new techniques, and… I didn’t have to develop film anymore.

Several years later I bought my first Digital SLR and since then I have owned many models, including D80, D200, D5000, D5500, D7000, D800, D800E, D750, D810, and D850. I also had the chance to use many other models, so my overall experience with Nikon cameras and lenses can be considered to be at least “advanced”.
