No expert here but I've done some copying and macros in an informal way.  Because you're using a DX format camera, some of the best possible sugg...

I generally don't, except in dangerous environments like blowing sand and the like, and then I usually find I forgot to bring one.  But I do some...

I keep thinking I've posted here but must not be remembering to push the button.  Anyway that's a nice lineup, but I can't help but notice the 70...
