No worries. I didn't think this was really a place for specialized photo equipment. Thanks for being patient so I can take enough time to ensure the condition of each lens is indicated as accurately as possible.

I'll be traveling for a while and will be able to add information here a couple of weeks from now. Thanks for the replies. Didn't know if you guys care about bulky, old-school glass.

My dad, an amateur photographer, died some years ago and left behind a few fantastic lenses. I am more of a Nikon shooter. These lenses haven't been used since he passed away. Any interest here? To the extent I'm able, I will inspect the front and rear glass on each lens. The exterior bodies of...

Definitely! I guess I should be looking only for optical zoom at less than 1x. But staying strictly at 1x is probably the least confusing path.

Going with 1x makes a lot of sense if, in fact, iPhone 14 lacks any optical zoom. (Somehow I assumed it has optical zoom.)

After swearing off the idea of ever using a phone to shoot photos, I just started with my regular iPhone 14. (Sometimes it's too convenient to hand my phone to a stranger to take a shot, rather than handing over a real camera.) I'm keeping lens protectors on, but will pull them off if they cause...

Is it better to install iOS updates immediately or wait a while for bugs to be squashed?

I used to think that any supported version of Windows is good enough for many uses. Windows 11 has changed my opinion. Everything I read about Windows 11 seems awful. (I've never actually used it though.)

Thanks for mentioning. Before you crossed it out, I was going to say I would have to carefully consider any card bigger than 2GB.

Clarification: I ordered the PQI one. I accidentally quoted the wrong one above. Thanks, guys.

Thank you. I think I'll order one of those. The company is Taiwanese and seems legit enough.

Any tips on finding good CompactFlash cards with a max capacity of 2GB? Is it just a matter of sifting through eBay and trying to guess which cards are legit? I ordered a FinePix S2 digital camera. It takes CompactFlash formatted with FAT16, which is why I have to find low capacity cards.

I still have those two Honda oil filters if anyone needs them.

Last year I bought Spigen screen protectors and lens protectors for an iPhone 14. I believe each was a two pack, and I only needed one each. If you are interested, PM me and I'll see what I still have lying around.
