Thanks for that Jules! Needed to lighten up a bit. Hilarious!!

I agree. Obviously some intentional vignetting as well ...particularly on that first one. Not sure I like the dirtiness of the sky ..caused by the desaturation.

I've had that many times with mine too. Then I started noticing the green focus light wasn't lit when I was shooting ...so that would do it. It only happens when the focus mode I've chosen is...

Hi there, I have several old Vivitar 285 flashes and they work on all my cameras and I also use them off camera with good results.   I'd like to use the Di866MkII with some non-ttl cameras I have...

I've battled this problem forever ...ending up soaking cartridges in water, blowing into them to start the ink flowing again etc. Sometimes they kick start one way or another but still suffer from...

I'm curious as to why so many people use a card reader. I used one when I shot with CF cards but now I shoot a D7000 with 2 SD's and most computers and laptops ...even my tablet ..have SD...

Seems to be a lot of variation as to what constitutes a PAR36 ...everything from halogen to LED'sPlease clarify. And to clarify a little on my approach ...I attach mine to the shaft of my umbrella...

You can also use speedlights and if you need modelling lights and have a power source handy you can do what I do ...which is...

I just use umbrella softboxes ..the reflector type, like...

As long as you have a good flash and can diffuse it, you should be OK. I shot this 44 person group with a single Nissin Di866 MkII on my camera, using a home made bounce hood. I don't know what...

what problems are you having? I just have the basic eye-fi card and use it in the second slot of my d7000. I set the camera to store RAW on the main card and basic jpegs on the 2nd one which...

:-):-)I think worrying about WB in a nightclub is counter productive. Normally they gel the spots so you've got a set of wierd colors to work with afterwards anyway. You can pre set your grey but...

Responding to the 'thread' generally here ..not to a specific message. I have the 18-105, 70-300 and the Sigma 70-200 2.8 for zooms. All pretty good lenses. but I still grab my Fuji s100fs w/...

Responding to the 'thread' generally here ..not to a specific message. I have the 18-105, 70-300 and the Sigma 70-200 2.8 for zooms. All pretty good, but for 'super zoom' I still grab my Fuji...

For some of us ...getting a few shots with that impact and quality in our lifetimes would be rewarding ....you do it every time. Thanks for sharing them!

I got Asus TF101 last Dec & next prob free 10 min will be the 1st prob free 10 min. I got it back from 4th 'fix' a month ago and still haven't opened the box asit is so hard on the brain to fight...

Wonderful idea and wonderful series.
Just to back up the usefulness of these new gagets ...here's a link to a photojournalistic set of photos that gave me a reality check and a lot to think about...

Had the privilege of shooting the Buddy Guy/Jonny Lang concert as the venu photographer a couple weeks back. Shot from approx 10 rows back in the 'mix' (where the sound is mixed)  so some cropping...

Great shots Paul!i agree with a lot of the comparisons with sthe s100fs ... Wider, longer, cleaner at high ISP and I got a chuckle on the batteries comment.the viewfinder part I didn't get though ,...

I'm not sure what to do either. I'm in Canada. Lenses are 35 1.8, 18-105, 70-300 and recently purchased Sigma 2.8 50-150.All require focus adjustment and the whako part is that at different times...
