Anyone own the Nikon 20mm 1.8 on their D750?
I have the 18-35 but looking to replace it with a prime.

These are nice m8, top stuff

I had one, loved it when I did use it. Wasn't much of a landscape person so it got limited use. But was still lovely when used.
Thanks Graham, but I've re-edited and toned them right down, see above. Not sure what my eyes were seeing earlier, were way over saturated. Anyway, still not quite happy but they'll do. Have other pics to sort now
Much better after the second edit. Possibly still take the tint more towards green if you are using LR but much bertter regardless
Thanks George [emoji106]Very nice shot Sir, well composed with beautiful colour.
George.
Thanks George"Excellent" shot Sir, with good atmosphere & colour.

Stunning shot.
Awesome shot @T_J_G
Try another test, put everything on manual and we can build from there. Put the camera in manual, 1/125 f5.6 iso 200 with auto ISO off. Put the flash into manual and set it to something like 1/8th power. Try your run of shots again and review them, they should all be the same. If they aren’t then there’s a problem.
If they are the same, start introducing auto features, the first I would try is TTL on the flash and try again, put keeping the manual settings in the camera. If these are fine put the flash back into manual and your camera into an auto exposure mode (assuming that’s what you were using) and try again.
By rolling it back to basics and using auto features only in one place at once you should be able to determine which part exactly is playing up
If you still need help get some of the shots uploaded with the EXIF in tact and post them in here and we can see if we can help any further
You can change the power output of the inbuilt flash when using manual mode. Inbuilt flash has 4 modes, TTL, Manual, Repeating and Commander@andy1868 I've had a bit of problem trying to understand with a view to helping. It's a puzzle for sure. But, he is using the on-board flash; he doesn't have stand-alone unit. (I came to a similar conclusion as yourself) You can't alter the output power with the pop-up unit. (I stand to be corrected though)

NX-2 can yield good results but it's a very clunky bit of software imo.One of those nice gold boxes turned up this morning with a D750 in it (Where it is staying untill I am 100% sure I am going to receive the discounts/cashbacks I have stacked up against it.)
It came with a copy of NX-2, which after a quick scan of reviews seems like a semi decent package, certainly better than the ancient copy of Photoshop I am using. Is anyone else using this? Or is it time to bite the bullet with an Adobe subscription?
I do a lot of mono work and try to get it right in the camera, but a recently I have felt that my lack of skill in processing needs to be addressed - I recently watched people making ARPS submissions be ripped a new one for small technical errors that could have been fixed.
I am working towards this currently and don't want to suffer the same fate.
Opinions please?
My initial thought is that it's just a high dynamic range scene, but without seeing examples it's difficult to help any further. I've certainly not heard of any exposure issues like this with the D750 tbh.Hi everyone, new(ish) d750 owner here and just wondering if you can help me out please. Apologies if this has already been discussed, but here goes: I love this camera, but in bright light conditions it seems to quite dramatically underexpose shaded areas/overexpose brighter areas and I can't for the life of me understand what's causing it. I'm shooting on aperture priority and have tried the usual things like exposure compensation but this doesn't help. It only seems to be an issue in bright light as other images I've taken with this camera have turned out great. After a quick Google and read of some other forums, I see that some people have said that it's a fault and have had to have their cameras replaced. Has anybody else experienced this? Experiencing a bit of slow internet at the moment which is preventing me from uploading examples, but in the meantime, can anyone help please?

Definitely examples needed. As standard the 750 does meter normal scenes slightly over. I always had -0.7 exp comp for normal situations.
Thanks - managed to upload one example here. Admittedly my previous camera was not this advanced so it's quite possible that there's a very simple reason for this, but as I said, it's perfectly fine in most other conditions.
What metering mode are you using, matrix?
It looks a relative normal scene with some highlight which is retained nicely. If anything, that’s probably the ideal exposure with no highlights clipping for that shot. There will be plenty of detail in the shadows that can be recovered, which is the strength of the camera.
Yep, this was matrix. It's not a *huge* issue as like you said it can be recovered, it's just not something I experienced with my previous camera. As this one is relatively new I just wanted to be sure that it isn't something I should be contacting Nikon about, and after my quick search earlier was concerned that the camera might be faulty (although perhaps it's just the photographer )
