This Nikon AF-S 600mm f/4E FL ED VR lens video review is by Aaron Baggenstos (website | Facebook | YouTube | portfolio):
I was recently given the opportunity to field test the new Nikon AF-S 600mm f/4E FL ED VR Lens in Alaska, one of my favorite places for wildlife photography and a place where I lead several photography tours each year.
I am extremely impressed with this lens. I’ve demonstrated a few of my favorite new features in the video review below including images, video, and time-lapse. Thank you for watching and I hope you enjoy this review:

DxOmark published their test results of the Sigma 24mm f/1.4 DG HSM Art lens for Nikon F mount. Their conclusion:
The new Nikon instant combo rebates for September (up to $300 off) now include 28 different lenses, a flash, tele-converter and will be valid till October 3rd. It seems that the lens only rebates from August were not extended. The Adorama versions of the rebates can be found here.
Update: the price of the Nikon D7200 also dropped by $100 ($300 off for the lens kit).
“UV filters – do you need them or not?” is a new article by Steve Perry (website | YouTube | Facebook). You can check also his previous [NR] posts here:
UV filters – they certainly have the power to fire up heated debates among photographers. Who would have thought such a small piece of glass would be responsible for so many energetic exchanges on internet forums and inside the walls of camera clubs?
I’ve certainly found myself taking sides in this battle over the years – until it occurred to me that most of the facts put forth by each side (mine included) were based more on assumptions and suppositions than actual tested facts. Even the anecdotal evidence where someone breaks a filter and proclaims it saved their lens is largely untested. (Would the lens really have cracked without the filter attached? The video has the answers.)
So, I decided that instead of trusting to my own assumptions, I would put all the major arguments under a microscope – and share the results in a video.
