Haven’t had time to post here about the saga with my D800 (previous posts are here and here). After much debate with Nikon Richmond Service center I got referred to the corporate office in Mississauga, Canada.

Wireless remote for Nikon D800
There are many uses for a camera remote – you may need to secure your camera on a tripod and ensure that there is no shake to the camera when shooting, or you may need to expose for long time or maybe you want to just take a picture with yourself in the frame. My…
D800 memory cards
I don’t think I mentioned this before but I am using SD cards with my D800 exclusively. Main reasoning for not using CF cards is to minimize number of gadgets I need to have and travel with. Since most laptops released in the last few years have SD card readers it becomes a big selling…
D800 focusing issue. Part 2.
Today I got my camera back from Nikon’s service center in Vancouver, BC. They sent it back saying it’s within specifications. I set up another test environment with different target this time – star chart. This was a second trip to the service center. After first trip my camera came back with improved focus when…

These codecs allow Windows to display your raw files in Windows Explorer or Windows Photo Viewer, so you don’t need to launch heavy software to simply view your images. The installer for the codecs…

I figured I will post interesting reviews that are worth reading about D800. May be a good list of resources down the road. NatureScapes review by one of the biggest authors of the site and forums there – E.J. Peiker
D800
It is here. It is amazing from those few brief moments that I had with it. I hope to be able to spend more time shooting next week – late May, early June. And, weather and location permitting – even more shooting during the month of June. A lot of things are different from my…
Got my L-bracket for D800
Well, today I received my Kirk L-bracket for Nikon D800! Not sure when I will be able to use this extremely expensive piece of aluminum for the camera I still don’t have nor know when I get it. Sucks!
