Can u comment on the strap? I tried in stores and it seems comfy at your side but not when the bag is slung around to your back. Thoughts?
My “whats in my camera bag video is on my channel….. Would be greatly appreciatted if you checked it out;)
How much is the 11-16?
I now upload my stuff to fb as my family and friends are the only ones i figured would enjoy my work, pm me if you would like a friend request to view my current work
Hey elliment18, nice video however I wanted to check some of your work but according to Flickr you are no longer active on Flickr….. I was wondering what happened…
that 50 1.8, was it the D version? I got the 50 1.8D not long ago, and I’m finding it to be super sharp. Could have been using bad filters on that too maybe?
youtube would do that!
very very true, i now only own a Fuji X100 and put all the other money toward school
i dontt call these “i dont have a lot of money”…
Wow, you have the same camera and two of the same lenses I have, and you have the Tokina 11-16, which I plan to get. I agree that the Nikon 80-200 is wonderful and that the 18-55 is a steal for $100 or so. But unlike you I didn’t get rid of my Nikon 50mm f/1.8 because I’ve found it to be essential for shooting high school basketball in dark gyms.
sorry for the late reply, but honestly, I have found that with lightroom 3’s NR I can get away with high isos for the pictures I print and the people who see them. I’m not doing weddings or seniors anymore and am just shooting controlled environments. We, the photographers, always see either the best or worst in pictures, but the viewers seem to just see the picture as a whole. People who do not understand the finites of photography never nit pic details unless its REALLY bad
i would say its tokina 16-28 tamron 28-75 and sigma 70-200 if you would go full frame 😀
Great video…. Got me to buy 2 things from “your Bag” The actual Tenba bag and the dolica tripod. Great Video sir.
Thanks! 🙂
well my friend… it appears you have NOTHING for low light. 2.8 is’nt always fast enough. might wanna grab an 85 1.4 or something
its amazing! the af motor isn’t as fast as the d7k or 300s but it will most definately keep up with them in almost every other aspect. again, just pick a camera body and add nice glass, thats where your gonna see the difference, also grab adobe’s lightroom 3 for noise reduction. itll make the d90 look like a d3
Do you think that the Nikon 90D is good? I was thinking of buying it.
well accully they have stopped making one of them … i was wanting the 11-16 16-50 and 50-135… ive been shooting for 7 or 8 years now, and i find myself shooting in that range the most… the first DSLR i bought was a d50, and then i got a D80, and i when and got a 18-135 the next day, and it stay on my camera almost always unless im shooting macro or portraits and then i change lenses … and you said you have a D90 right?
yup, honestly man, unless you’re selling your photos to magazines, don’t jump on the brand name band wagon. They are the perfect lenses, but unless you got some cash, the quality just is not worth it. The tokina 11-16, tamron 17-50, and nikon/tamron 80-200 are the cheap mans 2.8 pro line.
not bad not bad at all… ive been wait on someone to put a video up of that 11-16 i was thinking about buy those 3 lenses in that “pro” range but the early reviews where not that good.
WoW!! SHITT!! that tripod is Just 40 bucks!!!
thanks yeah thats about my price range right now im thinking i will probably ge the nikon p500
On a low budget, honestly, try the new canon powershot sx30 is or Nikon p500. Though you won’t be able to push the iso much, itll give you every focal length available to see what you wanna shoot and its shape and speed is extremely similar to dslrs. Again, the only real difference is the sensor, youll just be missing out on low light shooting and some of that bokeh you get with nice lenses. Let me know if this is something your interested in or not
i want to get into amateur photography with a low budget what would you recomend i start out with
@IAmYoursBee camera bags are unatractive as it’s quite clever to have casual looking bag which is in fact camera bag to avoid any trouble on the street or in certain circumstances. Check Domke bags, first what you probably notice would be their simplicity, but believe me or not – they are very flexible, doesn’t look attractive and you can carry a lot of equipment in F2 or less in F6. Anyway I wouldn’t buy camera bag which is shiny with huge sticker like ‘hey! here i have 10k $ in equipment. 🙂
