Nikon D700 & 50mm f/1.8D jpeg straight out of the camera zero editing. I love this camera.

A couple of photos of just some mundane objects. Nikon D200 & 35mm f/1.8G

Thank you. I only recently got a Nikon D200. I have decided to shoot jpeg exclusively with it, it's easier and quicker than raw, and I like the photos straight out of the camera so much that I'm barely editing them for the most part, sometimes not at all.

Some photos from today. Nikon D200 & 35mm f/1.8G

I've recently bought a D200 to go with my D700 and D90. Photos are from the D200 with a 35mm f/1.8G lens.

Are you looking for a dedicated camera rucksack or a general rucksack for hiking? If the later then Sports Direct currently have the Karrimor SF Sabre 45 listed on their website for £98 which is a bargain. It's not an ultralight rucksack but it is bomb proof.

Hi everyone, I bought an E-M5 ii yesterday. I needed something lighter and more compact than my Nikon D700 for hiking and wild camping. I spent the whole day trying to decide what lens to get. I wanted a cheap lens until I figure out exactly what I want so I went for the Panasonic 14-42 mark 2...

I really don't want to get into arguments here, but please can you reference me where it states, as a fact, that something selling in larger quantities to something else deems it as more popular. How many photographers, amateurs and professionals alike, do you think are shooting dslr vs...

My reasonings are based on experience, and are rational. I've bought cameras brand new, none of them are worth anywhere near what I paid for them. I've also got a small collection of older digital and film cameras that are all worth more than what I paid for them, even my most recent purchase, a...

You're completely missing my point. My point was that just because a certain product, any certain product, is selling in larger quantities now than another product, much less a product that is no longer in production, in no way makes it more popular. And that IS a fact, if you're going by the...

I don't think new sales is strong enough to suggest more popular. I can think of a lot of things that have higher sales currently but wouldn't be deemed most popular. I don't think it's a fair assessment.

But you're comparing the new price you paid to the current second hand price. Old film cameras have been increasing steadily, so if you had bought that F5 a few years ago, you would likely be selling it for more today.

And in my opinion, older dslr's will increase in value as the become deemed 'vintage'.

It's not really giving the full picture though, is it? I mean Ford are axing the Fiesta so at some point you could say that the Ferrari.. Lamborghini.. Zonda.. (insert model) is more popular than the Ford Fiesta, but it's not really, is it? Again, I feel like I'm being pedantic here, but I feel...

This is a personal opinion (obviously) but I would look at a second hand dslr, simply because they are soo cheap now, and they won't lose any more value so you will get the little money you spend back in future if you decide you want to upgrade to something modern, whereas if you buy something...
