There is an option in the menu for this isn't there?
There is, it's either 'Rotate Tall' in the playback menu or '(D) Custom Shooting / display' I'd I remember rightly.
24-70 will be perfect mate. It's a fab general purpose lens.
Now you just need to decide on which one to go for!
Well its either the Nikon or the Tamron. I can hire the Nikon, but would be very much outside my budget buying wise for now.
I could probably afford the Tamron come bonus time at work, and think the VC would be handy. But... if I hire the Nikon and love it... will I always want it over the Tamron lol!
Plus getting a decent not front/back focussing Tamron might be the biggest ggrrrrrrr! lol
Whats the going price for a mint 24-70 from Nikon. I know a wedding photographer is might be selling a near new mint example... but no idea what the going rate is!
One has just sold in the classifieds here for £690.
£750? Which one is that then?
Where are you? You're welcome to come and try mine if your local to Notts. (or if you fancy traveling!)
Well, if you have the cash...
Non VR is 900g compared to 820g for the Tamron. 80g does not seem much extra considering the build of the Nikon.
The Nikon could easily club someone to death and show no signs of it...
Lovely pics peeps, Kris, she's a little darlin' mate! Steve, how are you surviving without the 18-35?
Great, I think! The larger sensor makes up for the WA and f/1.8.The Nikon could easily club someone to death and show no signs of it...

you have the 24mm 1.8 ?Great, I think! The larger sensor makes up for the WA and f/1.8.
I'm still getting used to how "wide" 24mm is!
Yes they do
Right can someone explain how i would set up my 750 for star trails ? I've had a look but it was a bit confusing - tried it and managed to take photos but like 60secs apart. God knows how tbh
Sorry, Chris, just realised that there's a typo in that post - it should read 'lack of wide angle and f/1.8'.you have the 24mm 1.8 ?
Have you got noise reduction enabled? If so, it takes another shot same length of time after the exposure then deletes the noise, in theory. Guessing that's why you have spaces between the trails?
Should be simple enough without that on, other than the Nikon 100 shot max counter which you can reset throughout.

Thanks dude, she's great. Been suffering with baby acne and trying various milks, to which she had a reaction to one yesterday. I've toned down her poorly cheeks a bit without going porcelain. She's the best photography project ever, thought it wasn't going to happen for me, but so glad it did.
She is lovely and as you say , they do make a great subject. We did a 365 with our first who is coming 3 now and we are at day 328 with our second one, it is great to look back over their first year and see how they progressed.
Thanks Phil. I had thought about doing a 365 with her to document the first year but I have nights away with work so not really possible. Still, I snap plenty of her but tend to just share those with the family, such as stuff like this.
Anyone hired lenses before?
I'm doing a friend's wedding in a few months unpaid. Although it's free I still want to do a great job and use the pics myself going forward.
I can't afford any decent glass right now and only have the 50mm and a friend's 24-85mm available.
Of course having researched on here and online it's recommended that you either have a bunch of primes where 2 bodies are near enough essential or have a 24-70 f2.8.
So I'm thinking that getting a 24-70 f2.8 might be the answer (unless of course my horse wins today which could happen looking at the weather!).
I did a wedding before using the 28-75 Tamron and was pretty happy with the results but thinking the Nikon 24-70 or 24-70 VC might be a better option. It also took me ages to get a decent copy of the 28-75!
Whereabouts are you?
I have a few lenses I could loan to you if close?
If you need to of course.
Yes they do
You will need deep pockets though
