Nikon 1 J2 Digital Camera

I purchased this remote both for being able to take family pics with my Nikon 1 J2, as well as to cue the shutter for night photography. It's worked perfectly and seems to have decent range and has met my needs very well. It's a little more expensive than generic brand remotes, but claimed to have a better range, so I went with this one for the extra couple bucks. It even comes with a carying case.

1 third the price of the Nikon hood and fits perfectly. Seems to be good quality.

1 stop is the right amount for me.

Best compact photo equipment bag. This is my second J3. I also own the J2 and use that when I need to carry additional equipment.

I use it as a back up for my digital camera.

1/2 the price of local shops.

My Domke J2 bag is still in great shape after 10 years, but the strap was showing it's age. It had faded from black to gray and was badly fraying from wearing against my shoulder every day. I was searching for a new J2 bag to replace it, but they are hard to find. Then I found this strap--which was really the only part of the bag needing replacement. Saved me over $200 by only replacing the strap instead of the whole bag.

Getting back into digital photography has brought me to this camera and I love what this product can do!! There are so many features on this camera that you can practice with and learn a lot! What made me get this camera over a Nikon or Cannon is that I can get much more camera for the same amount of money. This camera by far out does an entry level and mid level Canon or Nikon and that really caught my attention. There are also several professionals out there that are getting fantastic results using this camera and cameras like it. You cannot go wrong in buying this camera! It does everything!!

TV production, using up to 4 xlr inputs. Works great with Nikon D7000 digital camera.

This is my first DSLR, having shot film since 1980, and so far, I really like this camera. Since I have nearly zero experience with digital photography, the learning curve has been very steep for me, but as I gain some time and experience with it, I am finding that it just works as it should. I have collected lot of Nikon glass over the years, and this camera can use it all, even my pre-AI 300mm F4.5 telephoto lens. which mounts just fine. The price and availability of color films is what finally made me decide to try digital. Had Kodak Ektar 100 not more than doubled in price, I would still be happily shooting color film and avoiding digital altogether. I still shoot black and white film, and will continue to do so as long as it is available for sale. But for color, the Nikon D780 will be my main camera. Overall, I am pleased with my purchase, and I'm happy that there are still DSLR cameras available for sale. I'm not very excited about mirrorless cameras. I guess I'm just getting old.
