WB or white balance. Essentially you point out what in the pick should look white and the other colors are adjusted too suit

I have one that is getting fungus. Should not affcet picutres, but it is visible, and fungus only gets worse. Lens too cheap to warrant repair. Paid 3 gran for it new. Willing to part with it for 400 dollars, with front UV filter, hood and end caps. If you want to borrow it for a day to test that is fine.

Cross inspired me to research a way to keep my lenses safe from fungus, thought I'd share, found it in the description of a youtube video.

Fungus need heat - damp conditions & dark conditions to thrive.

These are my recommendations for preventing fungus forming on your lenses
1. Try to prevent wet getting on your lenses, if your lense gets wet room dry it for at least an hour before storing the lense away
2. When coming from a cold area to a hot area or vice versa let the lense sit in the bag for 10-15 minutes to adjust to the temperature before using it to try and prevent condensation forming
3. Use a dry box to store the lens and a large amount of silica gels in the box to prevent moisture forming. If possible use a dry box that lets in light as UV light kills fungus.
4. Use silica gels in all your camera bags.
5. Replace or recharge silica gels when the colour changes. To recharge the silica gels place them in the oven or microwave to dry them out.
6. Don't use the sleeve/pouch that came with the lens to store it in
7. Keep your camera bag clean and dry bag when using it. This may sound obvious and simple but is it easy to let dust and dirt build up.
8. Purchase modern bags that are more moisture resistant. Have spare camera bags.
9. Finally if a lense develops fungus that was stored in a camera bag, bin the bag as the bag is likely to be infected with the fungus

I leant it to someone who kept it in their bag all the time for nearly 10 months. I keep my kit on a shelf in a room that gets the evening sun, so it is relatively dry in there.

I use my cam almost every week and its kept in my bag almost all the time. It's a nylon bag though and it has alot of silica gels in it. Also the bag is left open and on a shelf that gets hit by the sun every evening. I'm hoping this is enough to keep them fungus free and well so far so good

help me buy my next lens, Nikon 24 70 mm 2.8F or Tamron 28 70 2.8F

Keep in mind the Tamron is 500 USD cheaper and has vibration control but review say its not the same optical quality as nikon.

also when is Nikon going to jump on the boat and produce a constant aparature mid zoom lens with VR?

[DVSTT]

Tamron. Think that's my next lens as well

Nice Kid!

[Trini Hookah]

Weird angle there bro

[stikid09]

Thanks

and I know lol.
My main intention was to just shoot the Shift Performance sticker, only when I got home I noticed a good reflection of the Impreza.

I rotate at that angle to have piece of both aspects.

Anybody knows where I could get gel filters locally

You could ratch some. I bought some of those semi hard plastic, translucent CD cases and cut it up and just wedged it between the flash head and the built in diffuser. Works well as a make shift CTO. Gotta be creative lol

[lighthammer]

Stores which sell stage / entertainment eqipment and lighting should have. I just bought a photo gel variety pack off of amazon and never needed anything more since.
