secondo me il digitale ancora non ha aggiunto la qualità delle vecchie pellicole

What lens did you use with D3s? please answer
Thanks for the review, great job!
Great review!!!
Sorry – your review adds nothing we didn’t know and is very poor quality to boot. Suggest you invest in a decent video camera or/and computer and not more helicopter flights!
Speaking of the 3DS, try shooting your own video with one because this Youtube quality sucks.
this or the canon 5D or the canon 1D mk IV … I do not know which to buy .. ?!
even if im not a nikon user, i still like watching the review and anything bout nikon. Nice camera 😀
@humbrolenamel What lens did you use with D3s?
@Jakob1056687
If birds pictures are very important to you, my suggestion is D300 or D300s. Why? Since all of them share a same 51 points AF system, D3 and D3s have nothing better on AF performance comparing to D300 and D300s. Besides, the same 51 points AF system covers almost full screen on DX while it covers only a central part on FX, soD300 and D300s are easier to capture birds. Additionally, a DX frame can give you 1.5x tele rather than a FX frame. This is typically good for birds pictures.

good one
@Blackxthink they’re made in thailand
you’ve copyrighted a video of yourself unboxing something?
probly in china like almost everything from nikon
I have one on order, I can’t wait till it arrives =D
Dying to get my hands on one of these. They are always either out of stock or over priced due to demand.
this flash is made in?
I thought it came with a remote or something for when its not attached to the camera, it would still take effect in flash. So do you have to buy something to put on the camera for when taken pictures with the sb600 not attached to my d90?
Thanks
