Bought a used Nikkor 60mm macro lens and having a terrible time with it. Of course, no instruction manual. On manual, the camera doesn't let me do what I want and on AF the sharpness isn't there. Can anyone help?

It's used and of course no manual. Any tricks to this lens? I would think someone on this board has one... Thanks.

an address of a site that sells repro lens manuals? Thanks.

What lens would you suggest for crisp close-up work with a Nikon D70?

I'm trying to post a pic but it's a .png file and it might not take. Photoshop won't allow me to convert it to a .jpg. Anyway, it's a point & shoot with 5MP and waterproof (they claim) up to 3 feet of water. Anybody own or have fiddled with one?

load if I already have PS4? Yeah, I know 4 is a very old version. Thanks for any info...

they had a vote on the best 10 photographers. All were terrific. But, I was curious regarding what camera they used since there is the endless argument of Nikon versus Canon or vice versa. Well, it turned out 5 used a Nikon and 4 used a Canon while one used another brand. I'll bet if the...

How often do you use a circular polarizer? Is it worth it to buy one. I use one with film but digital is still fairly new to me and my lenses are larger...

With b&w film color filters can really make the difference. Are they worth a hoot with digital cameras?

I bought a cheap Slik monopod and it was delivered today. I attached a Nikkor AF 80-200 (non VR) to it and was pleased with the results. I used to think my hands were steady but not anymore especially with a long zoom. I've got a decent tripod but it's a hassle to drag around. The mono is...

Trying a still shot of marbles and the bag a young boy used circa 1900. Not real happy with the shot but I'll get better...

Before I bought my Nikon D70 I purchased a fairly thick paperback book that supposedly went into further detail of what was possible with this model. I read it cover to cover many times and, ultimately bought a D70. When this book was discussing megapixels (MP) it said the MP in the D70 were...

As many of you have experienced in the photo mags or at your local camera store the pricing regarding filters varies greatly. Is there really a difference between a B+W or Hoya or even Promaster? Just looking at UV or Skylight filters one is perplexed by the number of coatings, the "pro"...

explain what "rubbing" means on a lens? I'm assuming it refers to a slight scratch on the barrel and someone "rubbed" or buffed it out? If I'm correct in this assumption it's fairly easy to spot...
