    Aurora Hunting - Time To Replace My Trusty Nikon D90??

    Just to round this up, I went for a used D750 and so far could not be happier with it. Plenty of scope to learn into and taking my old lenses for now is a major plus especially as even in cropped, they come out about the same as the FX lenses i'd be looking at. Also, a HUGE thumbs up for...

    Third party Pan/Tilt Head w/ Grip for K&F Tripod?

    Can anyone recommend a third party Pan / Tilt Head with hand grip that would fit a K&F TM2534T? I love the tripod, but for some work the 360 degree ball head is not working how I would like. Hope someone can help, thank in advance.

    Thanks, that is where I was referring to. Sadly I found they are not open on Saturday's so I will have to try to get down to them in the week if I can get away from work. Some of the prices do look a bit steep on their used gear though?

    Aurora Hunting - Time To Replace My Trusty Nikon D90??

    Thanks for the replies everyone and to gad-westy and for adding another to the list of options, the D610! I am normally really good at researching and deciding what suits my needs, but this time I feel like i'm on a merry-go-round with an excellent option at each turn. Not being anywhere near...

    Aurora Hunting - Time To Replace My Trusty Nikon D90??

    Still weighing up the options and leaning towards the D500 right now. Curious as to no recommendation for it so far?

    Aurora Hunting - Time To Replace My Trusty Nikon D90??

    Thank you for the replies. Interestingly, I happened upon the N PHOTO magazine, summer edition today reviewing the D7500. It stacked it up against the D7200, D500 and the FX D750. I naturally assumed the D750 would win, but for low light (my main subject), it recommended the new D7500, I...

    Aurora Hunting - Time To Replace My Trusty Nikon D90??

    Many thanks for the reply, I could possibly stretch the budget to the D750 (especially having looked at an excellent comparison review between that and the D7200.) I guess at it is a new possible option, i'm nervous though about the crop and lose of resolution if I used the Tokina with it...

    Aurora Hunting - Time To Replace My Trusty Nikon D90??

    Thanks for the reply, the D750 seems an excellent choice. Presumably though you then had to buy all new lenses for it which adds to the budget massively? Do you do much night sky photography? Thanks again.

    Aurora Hunting - Time To Replace My Trusty Nikon D90??

    I purchased my trusty Nikon D90 new on release in 2009 and as a very amateur / hobbyist photography albeit perhaps with a keen eye, I have never spent a great deal of time (or money) since on improving what I have. However, I have recently moved to the beautiful Scottish Highlands and ever day...

    It Has To Be Fate?...

    Most of my Aurora chasing will be limited to Scotland (400 miles away) and likely only visible through the camera, but I do hope to visit Norway, Iceland and Alaska before my time here is up when MK1 eyeballs will be in awe. :)

    HDEW CAMERAS anyone used them?

    As an update, I ordered Monday and the lens was with me today (Friday) even though the stock was not in the UK. With excellent communication in between, you can't ask for more than that! Very happy. :)
