650 KB | This is an example to show chromatic aberration where purple and green shadows occur on the edges of brightly lit corners. The problem is especially visible in the center left part in File:chroma_zoom.jpg. | 1 |
| 09:04, 29 December 2021 | Muca.jpg (file) |  |
120 KB | This is Muca, a travel companion sheep, here in Ladakh India. This is a ''beanbag'' type of toy that has actually quite a bit of stability, and can be used as a ''cheap'' alternative for a tripod with some limited manoeuvrability. | 1 |
| 08:58, 29 December 2021 | Tripod result.jpg (file) |  |
535 KB | This is the shot from File:tripod.jpg and also seen in File:Tripod_camera.jpg. As it is a manual Nikon 105 the aperture value is not in the EXIF. But it is around <kbd>f/22</kbd>, so that most of the board could be captured. That increases exposure time to <kbd>1/2s</kbd> | 1 |
| 08:48, 29 December 2021 | Tripod camera.jpg (file) |  |
409 KB | The same setup as in File:tripod.jpg seen from the camera side using a tripod. This is a Nikon D7100 with a Nikon 105 in this case the older manual focus one. In such a setup autofocus is not really needed. | 1 |
| 08:31, 29 December 2021 | Tripod.jpg (file) |  |
315 KB | A typical macro setup using a tripod, although while this picture was taken the distance to the subject is actually out of the macro range (a normal lens would also made the same shot). | 1 |

173 KB | Example image for a discussion on JPEG vs RAW taken by Nikon Z FC. This is the image stored in JPEG format, scaled down from the original for this webpage. In ''Normal'' compression the JPEG occupies 5'623'118 Bytes. | 1 |

980 KB | Example image for a discussion on JPEG vs RAW taken by Nikon Z FC. This is the image stored in RAW format on the camera, it was scaled down and converted (ironically) to JPEG from the original for this webpage. The RAW image was 35'225'291 Bytes., more than six times the corresponding JPEG image. | 1 |

359 KB | Here we are comparing the 215gram Nikon 100 to its more capable brother the Nikon 105 with macro capabilities, by taking a picture of the gorgeous Nikon Z FC. Ok, if you wanted to make this shot, you really need a macro and the Nikon 105 is definitely the right choice. Note that there are few cases where you really need this capability.

313 KB | Here we are comparing the 215gram Nikon 100 to its more capable brother the Nikon 105 with macro capabilities, by taking a picture of the gorgeous Nikon Z FC. This is now a shot that you start needing the capabilities of the Nikon 105. It is still not macro range, but not all lenses will allow you to come that close.

324 KB | Here we are comparing the 215gram Nikon 100 to its more capable brother the Nikon 105 with macro capabilities, by taking a picture of the gorgeous Nikon Z FC. This is now what Nikon 105 can do better than the Nikon 100 as the minimum focus distance is much shorter. Note that this is not really the macro range.

318 KB | The Nikon 100, here on the right mounted on the camera, is truly gorgeous. On the left, the formidable Nikon 105, which has macro, vibration reduction and a gorgeous autofocus. It also happens to be half a kilo heavier, or about 2.5 times heavier than the compact [Nikon 105. There will be cases where you ''need'' the bigger, better, and meaner Nikon 105, but for a wide range of cases, the little brother is just as good. | 1 |
| 16:54, 18 December 2021 | Nikon100 pig.jpg (file) |  |
186 KB | With a lens like the Nikon 100 with only manual focus it is a bit more challenging to capture moving subjects well. But you are as happy as this cute pig here, once you manage to get it right. | 1 |

394 KB | I love longer lenses like the Nikon 100, here even a bit longer as it is on an APS-C camera. | 1 |
| 16:51, 18 December 2021 | Nikon100 heron.jpg (file) |  |
462 KB | Shots like these with the Nikon 100 on an APS-C camera are a bit more difficult as there is quite a bit going on here, and getting the focus on the bird at a distance with manual focus is not so easy. | 1 |

128 KB | These leaves were shot using the Nikon 100 on a APS-C camera. Although the lens is not a macro it will allow you to get close. This is not a crop, it is the scaled from the original. | 1 |

414 KB | Here we have two lenses that are almost identical. On the left you have the Nikon 10-24 a wide angle zoom for APS-C cameras on a Nikon D500 and on the right you have the Nikon 16-35 which is very close in the range it covers on a Nikon D850. | 1 |

300 KB | The Nikon 16-35 at it's widest focal length <kbd>16mm</kbd>. One thing to get used to when trying wide angle shots is to get close. You stick your lens right into the action so that you have something to fill the frame. Otherwise everything disappears in the distance and you have large bands of empty space top and bottom. | 1 |
| 11:21, 18 December 2021 | Nikon16-35 wide boathouse.jpg (file) |  |
431 KB | The Nikon 16-35 at it's widest focal length <kbd>16mm</kbd>. These extreme wide angle shots are always tricky. It helps that there are no people around, and the curved roof as well as the rounded thrash bins, curved lake-front all help keep this picture a bit more ''believable''. | 1 |

301 KB | The Nikon 16-35 at it's widest focal length <kbd>16mm</kbd>. These extreme wide angle shots are always tricky. I am actually much closer to the statue than you think. I need to hold the camera straight not to get too much distortion, and there is nobody in the shot where the wide angle looks unnatural. Keep it close, keep it centered and look for roundish features. | 1 |
| 11:15, 18 December 2021 | Nikon16-35 jucker.jpg (file) |  |
296 KB | The Nikon 16-35 at it's longest focal length <kbd>35mm</kbd>. For everyone who thinks you need wide angle for landscape shots, this is a good example. This shot will end up looking much better if we crop the middle third. There is already too much space pushing the village further away. If I were to use the widest angle, there would be almost nothing of interest visible in the shot. | 1 |

241 KB | This is the Nikon 55 a manual macro lens at the minimum focus distance of the Nikon 50 I have (which is the f/1.8 version). If you want to use the 50/55mm any closer than this (40cm) you need to have a macro function. For reference the little reindeer is about 7 cm high. | 1 |

278 KB | This is the Nikon 55 a manual macro lens. The little reindeer there is positioned at the minimum focus distance which is a bit over 20 cm from the sensor place. At this (default) setup without the extender tube the reproduction ratio is 1:2 and there is still some space in between the subject and the camera | 1 |

275 KB | This is the Nikon 55 a manual macro lens with the additional extender to increase the reproduction ratio from 1:2 to 1:1. The little reindeer there is positioned at the minimum focus distance. As you can see there is not much space between the subject and the lens, this is usually a problem with macro lenses that have short focal length. | 1 |

401 KB | A crop from a much larger picture in File:Zest_orig.jpg. This is a shot made with a Nikon Z FC using the Nikon Z 16-50 of some small chips in a carrier tray. Although this is a very small part of the scene, as the angle, the light and the sharpness was pretty good, so this picture ended up being used instead of several others made with dedicated macro lenses shot on a tripod. | 1 |

208 KB | This is a shot made with a Nikon Z FC using the Nikon Z 16-50 of some small chips in a carrier tray. I was actually shooting the same scene with other cameras with various macro lenses on a tripod and I was just curious what this camera could do. It was clear from the beginning that I would have to crop the picture. The red part rectangle shows the approximate size of what I have in File:Zest_crop.jpg. After the session, it was actually this cropped picture that ended... | 1 |
