Agree with work in progress. Here's another method, not the same as what you are using, but perhaps something you might want to shoot for. Pun intended. The idea is to use light from a flash...

Not very objective. Significantly more objective. One of the dangers of internet forums is that generalizations and opinion start to emerge as fact. One particular Nikon has outstanding...

And then some. Mike

Check out strobist.com. You can learn to turn good light into great light, iff (note spelling) you are willing to try. The basics are not that hard. Mike

Peterson. He talks to you, not "down" to you. Mike

I was bored and on the back porch playing with the camera. Did not notice what was "wrong" until I downloaded the pics to the laptop. Is it just me, or am I a...

If your tripod head has Arca/Wimberly/RRS style quick-release clamps, RRS makes an 18" camera rail that might work. I bet the others do too, I'm just too lazy to look. But it ain't...

A single pixel is a voltage meter, excited by light photons. Larger pixels capture more photons and have greater voltage range (dynamic range) than smaller pixels which capture fewer photons and...

Not confused. You want a D90. No prob. I bought an E620, then wanted full frame instead. Bought into another system. Question is, and with all respect, why are you asking us? Life is...

Seriously, not much. Either beats the other, on this or that, but only by the width of a gnat's hair, if that much. If you are persistent and determined you will find devout Canon, Nikon, Sony,...

Flip a coin. Either will do. And now, the canned response... Canon offers lots of long telephoto zooms and primes. Nikon offers a good selection of wide zooms and primes. Decide where you...

That's it, that is the reference I was looking for. If you dig down you see that it was created in context of video (movie), but the principles are 100% the same. Thanks to Graystar. Mike

I'm still looking for the reference, but I recently read somewhere that it takes volume. As in lots of pics. We tend to be critical of our own work, constantly trying to improve our own images,...

Very similar situation, have 5d2 and a handful of OM lenses. Sold the OM-1 a year ago, sill have the OM-4. Need to sell it, but that's a different conversation... Bought a chipped adapter, all...

Read, read, and read some more. Buy more books. Kelby, Peterson, Shaw, et. al. If none of this makes sense, buy a couple more books from amazon and read more. Read until it all makes sense or...

Are you catholic, protestant, or Buddhist? Mike

Nikon SB 400. I'm a Canon user, please don't ask me to explain... Mike

Arbitrary. Personal choice. Haynes vs. BVDs. Honestly, after reading the same reviews... no clue. Mike
