I enjoyed reading your article..I am using a canon 50d for about a year now. Its my first
dslr…i noticed that alot of the “feedbackers” are using “nikon” cameras. Aswell as yourself.
Through your experience, why is it alot of begginers tend to choose “nikon” over “canon”?
I only ask becuase i have always had a thought in image quality..between the two.. My daughter
has a Nikon pocket camera and the images are nice and sharp!! and its just a point & click camera.
well thanks for your time…T.perez

Hi Nasim,

I am a beginer photography and enjoy reading your articles. I have a Nikon D7000. I seem to have a problem with my D7000 when shoting in Manual mode under low lighting using matrix metering I am unable to adjust the exposure settings. The bar is always to the far right, and none of the dails work. However in Shutter or Aperture mode it works fine. Am I doing something wrong?

Hi Nasim,

I’m a beginner in photography using my newly bought Nikon D7000. Your explanation really helps me a lot in understanding the basics in photography. It is very very clear. Thank you for your unselfish sharing of tips and your wide experience in the field. I really learned a lot from you… though i still have to practice more often.
Just two questions , how can i make use of my 18-105 mm lens that goes with my unit? what is it’s best for? What kind of lens do you think i should buy next? ( I take a lot of family pictures for special occasions)

I have an issue with my nikon d5000
It has suddenly started over exposing my pictures,,,say if I put the camera into “A” mode and went from f5 to f8 the picture would be greatly over exposed and if I went all the way down to f36 well it would be totally white.. This happens in most settings that use the flash or the flash can be used.

Is this fixable or is it time for another camera?

Another point…what if i just half press the shutter in AF-S mode and recompose the frame and press it in full. Won’t i guess the same exposure as i gathered while half pressed? Or i have to press the AE/AF button?

Hello there!
Am a Nikon D90 user. I often get confused about right exposure while covering events as there are frequent changes in light. Please explain the relation between exposure and metering. Another issue i would like to ask. If i use assign AF/AE lock button to AE/AF lock Should i have to press that button until i release the shutter to get the desired focus and exposure? Or i can just press the AE/AF button once after i half press the shutter release button?
