I got my D and now I have some questions. :) I am also new to autofocus on SLR cameras.
How many stuck pixels am I supposed to have ? I think I have 4. I can see them when jpg is generated by the camera but I can't find them when I use raw and Photoshop RAW converter, which is strange. I will use RAW mostly but it is disturbing to have something not working correctly. Is there a software which can remove this stuck pixels by knowing the position as it is always the same ? Should I return the camera and get another one ? I will investigate this more closely tonight. AF is really bad in low light with 16-45, I think it is worse than my Canon S45 P&S, mostly because Canon has AF assist lamp. Is there such a thing for D ? How do I turn on AF assist ? Can internal flash do AF assist or I need to buy the external one ? What do most of you use, multipoint AF or center point ? It seems like a bad idea to use multipoint as you never know where will AF focus and DOF on SLR cameras is not forgiving as on P&S. 16-45 feels cheap even comparing to my $20 Takumar 135/2.5, but that is ok, I am interested in its optical qualities. :) I was also surprised how light it is comparing to my 80-200/2.8 Tokina. :) You could defend yourself with Tokina if somebody attacks you. Is there a color profile for D ? How do I get accurate colors ? Should I get IT8 target and shoot it ?
