Say Chris, say more about the IR remote.  eBay?  For Fuji?

There are specific things to be aware when shooting a the sea shore. First is salty mist. The Samyang 14mm is not filter friendly so you'll want to clean it often if you are close enough to the ...

Hi Matt, I always suggest to anyone w/ these types of questions that they be more specific about their photo subjects & weight limitations. There's a ton of really great gear available to choose ...

Have made some captures & learned tons about the gear I own. Have single captures using different shutter modes (mechanical, electronic 1st curtain & full electronic), in camera HDR & Oly's pixel ...

Well, turns out answering this question was very easy once I tried it.  Neither tele lens I've got can produce a reasonably sharp solar image on the full spectrum camera.  When I tried focusing on ...

Hey Russ, how about getting a 2x TC for the 200?  I'd guess the Pentax f4 would stand up IQ wise to a 2x TC well.  That would give you an FOV of about 5 solar dia., just right for good corona ...

Boy, looking back now, I see my OP was not specific enough  Sorry I muddied the water so much.  I really do understand the different purposes of stacking & have used most types over the years (but ...

Thanks much for your post. I have no doubt about your analysis.  But what do you think about use during totality for corona captures?  Certainly, as jerry mentioned in the next post, this will ...

Thanks Jerry, helpful info.  Is there any way to produce 1:1 video from a non-Canon camera? BTW, did a few captures yesterday but had intermittent scud & high winds.  Couldn't get PS to align the ...

Great info Macro, thanks!  Just the info I was looking for.  Have the Canon release on my Wish List for obvious reasons.  One question about it: is it modular, that is does the cable plug into the ...

Thanks Tanveer for both the info & your TL.

Thanks Greg.  Looks like the plug is 2.5mm, can you confirm?  Also looks like it's the same as Canon.

Thanks.  Unfortunately, this adds a lot of weight & bulk.  I'm still backpacking & try hard to keep the weight down.  So I'm still hoping to find a recommendation for an right angle plug that will ...

Hi, Hope one of you have a solution for this. I'd like to be able to connect an electronic remote into the left ports AND use an L-bracket w/ the camera in portrait orientation. That will require a ...

Really enjoyable Tanveer, well done! I'm curious if Asian cultures have any specific mythology involving the milky way? Native tribes of the North American SW deserts call the MW the ghost trail & ...

Very funny!!

Thanks Jerry & Trollmannx for your replies. Looks like I've been a bit confusing about what I'm trying to accomplish, sorry for that. The eclipses I've photographed were the total in 1979 & ...

Got the same problem.  Have you tried just using a small mirror?  The lit reticule is pretty bright.

Careful, you'll loose sleep if you keep this up-:)

Just for clarification, I proposed using PTGui to create 2 aligned pano w/ different exposures & then selecting & blending the sky from one & the land from the other.  I know of no way to ...
