I’m using the Adorama Flashpoint 7’ Autostand. I’ve been happy with it. On the Autostand product page I have a short review of it. But note that I am not an auto stand expert. I haven’t used any ...

I would like to put in a good word for autostands. In some circumstances they work better than conventional stands where you have to turn a knob to fold up the legs, or C-stands. The best use case ...

I just got a notice from Adorama saying that the first version of the remote head will not fit the AD-B2 Twin Head. I'm not sure if the problem is that the remote head won't fit at all, or if one ...

Adorama yesterday sent me an email notice about a problem/delay with the Adorama Flashpoint XP-200 Extension Head for the eVOLV200 pocket flash. (Same cable as the Godox EC200 for the AD200.) The ...

I shoot in RAW + JPG all the time. I just did an analysis of 935 pictures, looking at the RAW (Compressed) file sizes vs. JPG (Fine) file sizes. The 935 RAW pictures took up 24.53 GB of space. The ...

Mounting an AD200 head on the camera (e.g. on an X1T trigger) or on a flash bracket might also be useful for any application needing the 3X power of the AD200. Wildlife or anything requiring a ...

Wear a translucent top hat or bowler hat. Run the cable to the flash head under the hat. Voila, a super-Fong-type dome, for 360-degree lighting!

Great idea! To take this a step further -- or maybe a step too far... You could mount an AD200 body on a belt (like a Think Tank or Tamrac belt system) and run the cable under your shirt and up ...

Putting the heavy AD200 main body at the bottom of a light stand is not only better for carrying the light stand. It also helps in a crowded situation like a reception or event. It reduces the ...

Just saw this extension head for the Godox AD200 and Flashpoint eVOLV 200 flashes. It is on pre-order; no description, just the product name and photos. Saw it at Adorama ; cost is $35. Other ...

It goes without saying that if you have any files in the Trash that were important, they should have previously been backed up to an external drive or in the Cloud (Dropbox, Google Drive etc.). Hop ...

The OP may not want to use Format, because formatting the SD card will also wipe out any memory settings (M1, M2, M3, M4) that were saved to the card. For deleting all photos, I don't believe a ...

I don’t use Lightroom for tethering input and dye-sub event printing, although I do use it for other photo work. I use Digital Darkroom Core for tethering/printing. The times I quoted were from an ...

Ah, ok, thanks for the additional info. I had just kept the battery in the camera out of habit, when using an external USB power pack. I have an L-plate for my A7III where the short end of the L is ...

I wanted to follow up on a couple of items from earlier posts... BLACK AND WHITE ON A DYE SUB I printed a photo on the Mitsubishi CP-D70DW printer that had been converted in the graphics software ...

Jacques, thanks for the info. The Verizon hot spot I used generates its own WiFi network, like the Airport Express. So I don’t think the CamRanger signal went up into the cloud by LTE cellular and ...

You can run an A7III (and the A9 & A7RIII I believe) using a standard external battery pack with USB output (5V @ at least 1.5A). There are many brands and capacities available. It is easiest to ...

Not sure to whom you are referring. The studio I work for requires clients to provide an indoor, air-conditioned space for the printer set up. I personally have not printed outside in hot, humid ...
