Just realised that the Dell U2515H only has HDMI and DP ports. Annoyingly, I have 1xHDMI, 1xDVI and 1xVGA so it's not going to work for dual montiors. I looked at DVI > DP converters but it seems that I need an active converter, which are about the same price as a graphics card that has 2xHDMI...

Cheers Kevin! Definitely looks like it has the top vote so far!

I'll try resetting the on-board monitor settings again and see if it helps. Interesting, I do have one connected via HDMI and one via DVI, if that makes much difference? I only have one HDMI port on my PC so I had to go with that option. Would I be better off upgrading my graphics card and...

Interesting opinion. The higher resolutions of the monitors and the fact that some of them are 100% AdobeRGB was tempting. I've read that some of these montiors are pretty much on-par with 4K. I'm no expert on this so your feedback is appreciated. I have a Spyder4Pro calibrator and I have...

I currently have two LG IPS234 monitors, but since they're a few years old and looking a little 'dull' compared to my Dell XPS 15 laptop, I've decided it's time to upgrade them. The problem is, there seems to be a lot of ideal monitors that have great reviews these days, so I've narrowed it...

True, however I will still have a second body (D750) as I'm not quite prepared to leave full frame! My main issue with buying a VRI would be that ideally I need to buy new since I work professionally and could do without any work needing to be done anytime soon, I've had to get things fixed and...

Thanks for the reply. It's more the closer focus than the breathing in all fairness. I work a lot at night and the 2.8 is absolutely essential for me so I can't even consider the F4, despite having heard it's a great lens for the money. Not bothered about saving 100g with the weight of...

Reassuring you're getting such great results from the D500 at least, I never used the 80-200 to compare it to the VRII in all fairness, it was my first plunge into the deep end. I have to admit that I did feel it was gimmicky, and I'm not entirely sure whether the slightly closer focus and...

I spent a fair bit of time trying to search around for a thread regarding this, but with so many similar names and letters thrown all over the place it was like a needle in a haystack - mods, please feel free to merge if necessary. I've had my 70-200 VRII for about 4 years, it's been used more...

Thanks for the quick responses guys. Meike it is then!

Finally looking to put my order in next week! Noticed someone asked about batteries, but I'd love to know what aftermarket grips people have been using and whether they're still being detected by the camera? Had aftermarket grips for my D800E and D750 and they both struggled to co-operate with...

Looking to get myself one of these soon! What SD or XQD cards did people end up liking the most? Is the move to XQD worth it when I already have Sandisk Extreme Pro 95MB/s cards?

Is there anyone else out there who's had problems with the D750 focusing with older lenses (which work fine on other bodies) excluding teleconverters? Mine seems to hate my Nikon 300mm f2.8 AF-S II and I'm trying to see if there's any other people in the same situation to learn a little more...

Thanks for the heads up! Definitely looking positive.

Thanks, that's reassuring. Now to figure out who I'm going to post such a ridiculously heavy parcel with, haha. Same as my one, but with 300. Glad for your sake that you don't have any non-TC issues! I guess it's going to be a proper explanation to Fixation and a real hope that they take the...
