    SLR Lenses

    I have a very old D70 and It still takes good pictures! Your first pick: Nikon AF-S DX VR 18-200 mm F3.5-5.6G IF-ED Zoom / you think this coud be good allround lens - is good! or a 35-70 and a 70-300 for Zoom! Nikon have a very in-expensive 35-70 like the type above, but their Zooms are expensive, not unless money is no object! On a budget? Sigma and Tamron makes good Zoom lenses! You could also look for some used or refurbished lenses online! Unless you're going Pro, (which I don't think you do or else you'll have a D300 and above), a 35-70 and a 70-300 should be good enough! Definitely get an external Speedlight! You need it for wide angle and Zoom shots! The built in Flash does not have enough power!
  2. Unfortunately, this upgrade does not work on the 8300! Sooooooooooooooooo frustrating!
  3. Thanks for sharing! You're making me jealous! At least I know that SFSO is the REP to take on my next underwater adventure!
  4. TT! Nice kicks! Love those TBs as well! I'm more of the Cubavera type and driving shoes by Cole HAAN and Adidas Sneaks!
  5. $128 with Saphire and AR glass! That's really tempting! But I'll wait for someone to review this!
  6. Whatever you take, stay away from Vitamin E! It promotes LUNG CANCER!!!!!! 7% per 100 milligrams, so if you're taking 400MG, you're 28% likely to contract lung cancer!!!!
  7. Congratulations! You've got a beautyful baby! Hope both the baby and wife are doing okay!!!! Happy Father's Day!
  8. Friday the 13th: Sat: Father's Day: HAPPY FATHER'S DAY TO ALL RWG DADS!!!
  9. Got this last night from ZTECH! He said it came from Silix with Asian 6497.........., well I opened the watch and found the following: The watch have no rubber o-ring on the caseback and the crown o-ring was very dry! I put a new O-ring in and greased it and the crown.......but the biggest surprise of all???????? The movement was Swiss 6497. I can't believe it at first, so I opened my PAM036 with Swiss in it, and lo and behold...... it's exactly the same! Z! If you're reading this, thanks Bro! I guess Silix gave us a free upgrade! Water Test came out to 10ATM! I will be swimming with this beauty!!! Here you go! Put a BOB Shark on it for the swimming!
  10. I beg to disagree! I have a Curve 8300 right now with AT&T and it make and recieve calls practically anywhere! My basement at home; my gym, which is in the basement of our 60 story bldg.; at the train; lots of airports and hotels in CONUS....... Will they sell it to you without the Data Plan? Have someone bought it without?
  11. For me the easiest to water resist is the Radiomir Black Seal! I have been wearing mine in a lot of water lately and so far so good! When you get one, just check the gasket/o-ring for its condition and replace if needed, then grease it. Also check the crown gasket and grease it, too. Tighten the caseback and screw down the crown and your good to go!
  12. Obviously you're a newbie! TTK's been gone for a couple of months now! I heard he's active at REPGEEK! Goodluck!
  13. Ubi, how's the water for White Rafting! Is class V running now at Royal GOrge???
  14. Lani, I could see you're becoming a RollieMan! Aloha! Hike~!
  15. Someone pls record it and post it on youtube!!!
  16. Between the two, this is the one that tickles my fancy!!!
  17. I had to do the yard work this morning, so thought I shoul break-in the new PAM Velcro Strap on the PVD Destro:
  18. + 1 Ditto! I have been using my 8300 for over a year now and it is the best CP I've owned! BTW: The Bold is suppose to be out sometime this summer. EDITED For a shout out to CB: Give up the site Dude or just post it for us to download!!!!!
