I just edited some files together that had been on my harddrive since a few months, and which I never used. I filmed almost all of them with old nikon lenses from the 1980s

Zacuto Z-Finder
Posted by admin | Under Nikon D90 Accessories Tuesday Mar 9, 2010
The Z-Finder is Zacutos Optical Viewfinder that allows DSLR cameras to have the correct form factor for video. It offers 3x focusable magnification, a 40mm diameter lens, an eyecup preventing extraneous light leakage, and a field of view perfectly matched to LCD screens. With Optics by Schneider, this 6 oz viewfinder is a filmmakers best tool for creating precision focus. The Z-finder currently fits the Canon 5d, Canon 7d, Nikon D90, Panasonic GH1 (see note below), and many other cameras. The Z-finder is made to fit a 3 diagonal screen but other factors come into play such as button placement, slanting of the camera viewfinder etc. Please see below for interior dimensions of the Z-Finder.
The Z-Finder attaches to your camera LCD by using a flat snap fit frame. The snap fit frame attaches to your LCD screen with a double sided adhesive. The Z-finder snaps on and off to the flat frame very quickly. The Z-Finder also has optional rubber bands, Z-Bands, to hold the Z-finder in place. The Z-Bands are just a security measure to hold the Z-Finder in place in case of accidental bumping. The Z-bands are an option and can be added below. The Z-Bands cannot be used without the snap fit frame!
We also added a lanyard hook on the outside of the Z-Finder so you can attach a Zacuto lanyard to your Z-Finder. This allows for the user to quickly take the Z-finder off and on when needed. The lanyard hook and lanyard is included with the Z-Finder.
Z-Finder Features:
3x magnification
Range of 3 diopters
Allows DSLR cameras to have correct form factor for video
Field of view perfectly matched to LCD screen size
No light-leak eyecup
40mm diameter lens for excellent light throughput
Weight: 6 oz.
Outer dimensions of snap fit frame: 71mm wide x 56mm tall
Inner dimensions of snap fit frame: 62mm wide x 46.7mm tall
Extra Notes & Warnings:
- If you are going to be moving between extreme environments, it is suggested that you use an anti-fog material. Zacuto sells the Fog Eliminator; 3 sheets for $5.00.
- If you have two cameras or just need a spare mounting frame, that can be added when checking out as well.
- If you wear reading glasses/farsightedness, check the option below for taller mounting frame. The taller mounting frame is a temporary fix until we get our new frames. Once we get the new frame in stock, we will automatically send it to you. If you check the taller frame option, we will only send you the taller frame with the Z-finder, not the single frame.
- The Z-finder is a magnifier and as such will magnify the sun and could damage the LCD screen if the sun is allowed to shine directly through the Z-finder lens. This is not a defect but a physical property. Caution should be taken to avoid sun magnification.
- We have modified the snap fit frame to fit the Panasonic GH1. However, the Z-finder hangs below the GH1 camera body, therefore in order to set the camera down flat you need to have a plate on the bottom of the camera such as the Manfrotto 394. If you have the GH1 camera and want to use the Z-finder, when ordering please select that you have the GH1 camera.

Nikon d90, are these lenses compatible?
Posted by admin | Under Nikon D90 Lenses Monday Mar 8, 2010Dear Experts,
Few months ago, i bought a Nikon D90 with 18-105mm lens. Now, it is the time for me to buy another lens. I want lenses for low light, and wide aperture. So, i am planning to buy Nikon 50mm f/1.8 D AF Lens. On the other hand, i am also looking for a telephoto lens. I came across Tamron 70-300mm F4/5.6 DI LD Macro (Nikon AF).
Are these two lenses compatible with Nikon D90?
Is there any other lens would you recommend me to buy….Suggestions are welcomed 
Many thanks,
Pankaj

I also came across Nikon 70-300mm F4.5-5.6D ED AF Zoom Lens. is this lens any good to buy? as there is not much information about it on internet.
The Nikkor lens is of course.
While the Tamron may be compatible, it is not compliant.
Here is why:
"Nikon often includes secret features in cameras and in lenses to make them compatible with the next five years or so of secretly planned technology.
For instance, the 1988 F4 is completely compatible with AF-I and AF-S lenses which didn’t appear until 1992 and 1998.
Nikon AI lenses in 1977 already had secret lugs on the back which couple lens information to cameras for Matrix metering, not introduced until the FA of 1983.
Zoom AF lenses, ever since they were introduced in 1986, have always had focal length encoders which insert data into today’s digital cameras’ EXIF data.
AF lenses of today … still have mechanical lugs for backwards compatibility with the matrix meter of the 1983 FA, and manual focus lenses still have prongs for coupling to the 1959 (Nikon) F. — KR
If I really wanted a 70-300 mm lens, I would save my pennies until I could budget for the Nikkor 70-300 mm VR
My rule is just buy a lens once and keep it for decades … very few generic lenses last 40 or 50 years.

Posted by admin | Under Nikon D90 Digital SLR Monday Mar 8, 2010I’m a Graphic designer, in need of a camera. Don’t know anything about canon? Any advice?
I have a Nikon D90, and it is the best camera i have ever had. it enables you to shoot in low light because of the high ISO, the graphics are amazing, it has a video feature, and its suer easy to use. i would give it 5 stars, you’ll love it. real easy to use, great results, not crazy expensive, fits with all nikon lenses…your golden with the D90. good luck!!
What camera is best should i get the Nikon d90 or a Sony?
Posted by admin | Under Nikon D90 Monday Mar 8, 2010I want to take nature pictures and studio pictures like close ups of flowers and things like that. I dont know if i should get the nikon D90 or one of the sony cameras i know someone with a sony and i really like it they have a lense that is made to absorb more light which i really like can someome tell me what lense it might be and what camera i should get?
i have a nikon d60 and my dad has a d90 and it works very well for nature photography!! it’ll be great for that stuff.
basically, sony is nothing compared to the d90…
