Good catch -- I mis-typed. I have tried the latest version of Camera Control Pro, which refused to do anything in bulb mode. It can trigger bulb...
musicaleCA... thank you for rejecting the entire premise of my post. It was a most useful reply. Seriously, though -- I'm asking if anyone has...
Garbz, please check out my explanation in my post: I can't automate the photo-taking process if I want to use 2-minute exposures, because that...
I do understand this, however, shooting wide open at a high ISO is still not preferable -- I want to be able to stop down at least a little. With...
Hello all -- here's my problem. It's related to taking time-lapse photos, but it's somewhat more involved than just "how do I do time-lapse?!"...
I use my hiking stick as a ghetto monopod -- I would never bring a real tripod, WAY too much weight, unless you're extremely serious about some...
I think that very cheap UV filters run in the $20 range. I've seen them up to $100 or so. Look for Hoya or Tiffen especially, they tend to be good...
The short answer is -- if you took a technically good (and compositionally good :)) photo with your D300, then yes -- poster-sized prints will...

Although I can't comment on all of the cameras you've listed, I will point out an important factor. You specifically state that you want to focus...
As Dwig rightly said -- we're all different! For example, I apply at least basic editing techniques to almost all of my photos -- levels/curves,...
Does the 19-35 even have a built-in focusing motor? If not, you'd be stuck manually focusing as well.
While I agree that the 12 inches behind the viewfinder are the most important part of any camera (-- credit: Ansel Adams), you might have found a...
The biggest problem with sunset/cloud shots is that there is not a lot to hold the eye. The patterns in the clouds are neat, but they are all over...
"Underexpose" is an imprecise word -- it just means that your exposure is darker than you would have liked. It is possible that you may have...
Upgrade the lens -- your body isn't going to be the cause of sharpness problems. Actually, almost all of the time, "sharpness" problems result...
Be aware that filters can cause problems in odd lighting situations. I keep some kind of filter on at all times, unless I'm in an unusual...
