Come on everyone, don't be fooled by the images...it's the same 3d-printed facsimile that was shown a few months ago. So what if you can see the mount? they have to find a way of attaching the lens,....

Let me see.....

FA Ltd trinity
DA*300
FA* 24, 85 and 28-70
FA 35 and 50, and 135

Is DA*60-250 FF I wonder? such a versatile lens

speed of card makes no difference to the D7100. even programmed it to use Card 2 as overwrite as that is judged one way of improving the number of shots, but I do use the same cards in the K-3/K-5/D7100 (Flucard excepted)

all the clicks yes....basically on both Nikons you get a second at high speed continuous with RAW + JPEG...

with the K-3 you could track the spits across the sky

Today I opted to take my Nikons out to the Battle of Britain display at Goodwood.....

For some time I have believed a system like on another site, where all the discussions are taking place in the thread until the offer is made and accepted before going into PMs is better than what I see happening on here eg offer is made behind the scenes and other interested parties left in the dark. I am not siding with Billdad (that's not my old Tokina is it?) or Marat as I don't have many of the facts in my possession - but this thread is a good example of how not to trade...I absolutely detest the threads where the seller lists multiple items and someone says 'PM sent' - what is in the PM - an offer? a comment about pricing? are you offering for one item or for all? or could the email contain images that could possibly be used for the purposes of blackmail? or something else...

I know the mods have enough to do and do want to have to police every thread (god knows what will happen if you had to do that!) but I do think changing the rules of engagement on the classifieds thread will improve transparency.

I have the K-3 and D7100..

people say the flash system on Nikon is superior - but Speedlights esp the SB900 are prone to overheating
people say the AF system on Nikon is superior - AF-S might be quicker but it is no more accurate

I was at Goodwood for the racing and flying displays - somewhere where my Nikon should do well...not if you are tracking lots of Spitfires across the sky, 5 shots on the D7100 and the buffer is full, then you have to wait what seems like an eternity for it to clear...

F A B more time to enjoy my K-3

Ordered FA43 Limited yesterday. Had requested the lens case for the FA77 which they were advertising but waiting to come into stock. Eventually the email arrives and I am able to place an order, hence the simultaneous order for the 43. Arrived well packaged this morning.

Not a problem

The 60-250 was late and was subject to refinements before it was unleashed. Early copies were criticized widely, however I've heard nothing but praise for the production copies (except for SDM). I love mine...
