Sam7, I don't understand what you want this to show. It's way underexposed on my phone. I see a rainbow and just barely.

Thanks. Yea, it’s an oldie that still works pretty well.

The d500 is still sold new I think. Best DX DSLR camera from Nikon.

Lol like I said it was a failed photo. It was dusk and a storm started picking back up and I didn’t have time to try and adjust camera settings.

One thing the z50 doesn’t do well, is low light.

Situations like that, set the camera to auto and let'er rip. I had to do that Saturday at the Chosin memorial reception because of the large windows aad bright chandeliers.I haven't processed them yet but they may be acceptable for the Marine charity. I was using a camera I don't normally use. A D7000 DX camera with the 18 to 55 kit lens.

This I took with Nikkor 200-500 on my Nikon D500.

I upgraded a 62mm UV filter. If any of you need one y'all are welcome to it. Again 62mm Tiffen.

Using Chiaro now. Much better for cheaper filters. Seem to get a good filter for 20 bucks at B&H.

Nice offer. I personally don't use UV filters. Just CPLs and nutral density. Since I seldom shoot more than f8 or 11, I use the ND to slow the shutter speed.

I'll play with a ND filter next.

 

[Army 1911]

You might start with a CPL as it will enhance colors and give you 1 to 2 stops of ND. What ever filters you buy, go for good ones. I am using Urth, B+W, Zeiss and Nikon. The first three use Schott glass which can't be beat.

I need some larger ND filters, 77mm and 112. But those aren't in my budget and I don't need them often enough to make them a priority.

I haven't been shooting much do to heat and health but will probably start outdoors when the highs are under 90.

Someday I'll buy nice filters. lol. I want to buy at least a prime lens and a wide angle.
