Nikon forums

[Rojin]

As a Canon owner I'm familiar with the POTN forums, is Nikonians.org the equivalent? Or are there other other Nikon based forums I should be looking at? I'm already on FredMiranda which although US biased is quite interesting.

Nikonians have paid memberships, the board is quite clunky and the members are mostly pensioners. There's also NikonGear, but I prefer NikonCafe - the lens lust forum is excellent.

Cheers, I shall have a look

lens lust forum, sounds expensive!

Indeed, great resource for seeing photos from particular lenses though.

Ah, excellent. The Lens Sample Archive is one of the great features of POTN. Just what I'm looking for

I've been on Nikonians for a couple of years but doubt I'll renew this time. They've opened up some of the camera body sections and far too many of the questions can be answered by RTFM. The moderators also suffer from Nikon-only syndrome to a degree where I'm sometimes surprised that there's somewhere to discuss third-party lenses. I think it's lost its way and I'm close to being a pensioner.....

I use TP.
Used to use NikonCafe & paid for Nikonians.
Other option is DP Review.

Thanks all. I'm already on TP, I find dpreview is a bit too highly strung for any serious talk.

thought you might, but since it wasn't mentioned in the OP thought it was worth suggesting

I browse Nikon Cafe, which is good for a change, and here of course, but I'm another who won't be renewing my Nikonians membership sadly. It's just a quiet repetitive place nowadays.
