I like Chris Niccolls - he is a genuilly decent guy, great photographer. I would not concider him as influencer. Maybe he does influence someone with his reviews, but that is not his purpose in my opinion. Well, he once influenced me to get that canadian red check shirt though... :D Huge...

Nevermind, you can close this thread.

Anyone wants to buy one of those cameras? Reason I'm asking is I want to buy 24-120/4 lens which is in all those refurbished kits on Nikon UK. We could buy one of those kits, you take the body, I'll take lens. Anyone looking for one of those cameras...

Thanks, it looks like those modern scanners are simple solution for scanning prints. Unfortunately I do not have films for thsoe photos, when I was a kid, dad used to develop them, print and throw away films, we did not keep them back in 80s. Now when I'm getting towards end of the trip, I...

Like I said - just photos - old, printed photos.

I'm preparing myself to scan loads of old photos and was wondering, which model would you recommend nowadays? Last time I had a scanner was in 90s ;) I'm seeing that Canon LiDE 400 is often recommended.

Did you read my post? I said that it would be nice to have zoom that starts from 20mm. Not 24mm. Plenty of zoom lens with 24mm, but compact one with 20mm on wide end would be nice. Sony has 20-70mm which is ideal, Tamron has 20-40mm for E mount. It would be great if Nikon made one in their...

Did you find out anything about this combo?

I bought lens form Nikon and got 10% discount voucher in the box, I can share it with someone here, let me know if anyone going to buy something from Nikon website, 10% off is 10% off :)

Yep, I can confirm, received the lens today - it looks like new to be honest. Clean, no signs of use, original box, documentation, caps, hood. It was packed like untouched.

I just purchased Nikon 17-28mm lens, just travel etc It doesn't extend, but it moves inside - so thought I may buy UV filter just to secure front element. I never used filters, so wanted to check with you guys - does any UV filter will work? Is there anything I should know when bying one...

Yep, just used it, 20% :)

Do you guys have experience buying refurbished lens from Nikon site? Are these good quality and condition or can you also get old worn items?

No advice here, but jut wanted to say I love the title :D
