I’ve been waiting for the new Nikon Z 180-600mm to come out in South Africa, but it seems months delayed. Has anyone had a good experience shipping from the US to SA?

Hi guys
I once had a phone, it was a nokia n8. If i took a picture of moving wheel, or water spraying out of a hose, if i had the Xenon flash on, it would take these incredible frozen moment type of pictures, ie the wheel would look as if it is perfectly still, and better yet with water, you...
I want to do a few portraits (full-body, head and shoulders, groups).
At this point I have a Godox TT350 flash with remote trigger, tripod, and Nikon D3400. I plan on getting an umbrella or hotbox soon.
My kit lens is generally fine, and I can produce Bokeh with it surprisingly. I would like...
What books have you read or are you currently reading to help with your photography? Also any tutorials or videos too.
Currently reading "The Art of Photography by Bruce Barnbaum". I'm only on chapter 2, but it has good advice so far on what you should be photographing based on your...

I compared each programs RAW conversion against the Nikon NX-D software.
I found Paint Shop Pro to be terrible at dealing with NEF...
I am keen to get a tripod soon - want to do some slow shutter speed shots (waterfall, traffic, night sky and so on when I am in KZN). There is quite a bit of debate about what to get!
What should I realistically be spending if I want a good stable tripod? I don't want to waste money and buy...
Which software do you use?
I am not sure whether I should use Nikon Capture NX-D with Gimp, or the Adobe Photography package for $10 with photoshop, lightroom, and 20gigs worth of storage.
I recently went to India and couldn't get a picture of Mt Everest and realised that a camera phone really is not a substitute for a decent camera. Going forward I would like to have something decent to take on overseas trips, for casual photography and family events, and so on.
I have narrowed...
Hi there,
Let me start by saying yes, I am aware that "decent wedding photographer" and "affordable" in the same sentence is more than likely a contradiction...but I figured I would try anyway! I am trawling the interweb trying to find a wedding photographer for August in Fourways. We have a...
I'm looking to buy a camera from the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX100 range but am skeptical as to what I am going to pay on import duties. I read this, "Whilst there is no customs duty on photographic equipment into South Africa you will be liable for 14% VAT on the declared value of your goods, which...
Hi guys,
I'm interested in ordering a Zhiyun Smooth Q gimbal/stabilizer from GearBest.com.
