I'm actually thinking of doing the opposite and saving up to buy a medium format Mamiya or Hassalblad. I still shoot my Nikon FM when I'm feeling nostalgic. Tough finding film and a place to...

I think we're trying to say the same thing:tiphat:. That's why I use the RAW file as my base image. It's usually already a neutral starting point. I've used the curves method plenty of times and...

Color correction never turns out the way you want it and a critique on color correction from different perspectives is a bit silly to be honest. It could be numerically perfect, but different...

I know people that use Model Mayhem. Craigslist is a bit hit or miss and a bit higher in the creep factor. The easiest place to start would probably be friends and family.

I honestly wouldn't bother. Renting gear is great if you just need one for a shoot, but not if you're in the market to buy one. Try it in the store and just buy the camera which feels right. ...

Honestly, if you're just starting out, spending that much on a body is kind of pointless. There are advantages to shooting full-frame...heck medium format or even film. Buying the most expensive...

I have the 50mm 1.8g and I love using this lens for portraits and even as a walk around lens on my D7k. At wide open, even on a sunny day, it takes amazing shots and really nice bokeh. A bit...

In that environment, it may be easier to shoot manually if it's dark. Get your settings where they need to be and just keep shooting. The wide aperture lenses will help, but in a club setting it's...

I suggest buying a set of extension tubes if you want to experiment before going big with pricey macro lens. A set usually run about $100 and let's you focus up close with the lenses you have. ...

If you have the cash and willing to spend, go full-frame...but not necessarily because of your reasoning. You could spend tens of thousands on a medium format and still have a shot that's no better...

It's a toss up. Both have their advantages and really comes down to preference. Not saying the video is bad on the Nikon, but if you shoot video, I'd go with the Canon. They have better software...

Lol, it just takes some getting use to. They're really not that different. Just a few more knobs and buttons on the outside instead of having to go through the menus. I have the same camera, so...

Can't go wrong with either. Both are pretty easy to learn on. At this stage, it doesn't really matter which brand you go with. I'd go with whichever camera you can get the best deal on. Try B&H,...

Technically speaking, the D7100 is definitely an big upgrade over the D90. It's worth the upgrade as long as you're okay sticking with the DX sensor. You basically get a ton of great features from...

Just so you know, I believe Nikon is updating the D600 soon. Jumping to a camera with a FX sensor may be worth the wait. They already dropped the price on the D600 and I guarantee it's only going...

You tend to lose image quality with the really cheap ones. That's why I usually don't bother with any clear filters on my lenses. I'd pick the B&W or Hoya filters over the cheap ones unless you're...
