No higher than f8 usually :S Leigh has probably emphasised the flash a bit in PP

Sounds like a good plan then :) I've started using the movie mode on the D90 for short clips around the bar but manuual focus can be a little annoying sometimes, other times its awesome!

Ahh, well redeem yourself....... ....Do this ^ lol :)

Don't you mean a Nikon D60.... or a Canon 60D?

Managed to get this in high speed burst :)

Love the lemur in the tree :)

Get it checked out mate - mine only went "hot" once and that was at a stag-do in the bar I be in - his mates had a stripper in and my camera wasn't the only thing flashing ;) So I just grabbed the 2nd body and did a few fisheye shots + the onboard flash while it cooled :)

You guys doing club work - what sort of settings are you rolling with? :)

I have this little one http://www.wexphotographic.com/buy-manfrotto-mk394-h-tripod/p1525002 Compact, light and sturdy enough to hold my heaviest lenses too - it's a great job when I don't need my heavier Manfrotto 055xprob :)

I use the diffuser dome all the time too - lots of mirrors and windows/glass doors about so prefer a soft spread out flash. At first I went in and started using Aperture mode with the flash on TTL/BL Now I tend to stick the camera in Manual, 1/40th and f8 ISO 800 with the flash on TTL FP mode...

Good job! :) nerve-wrecking isn't it?

I use the same flash gun for photos in a nightclub every Friday & Saturday night without any problems. Plus other occasional jobs on, generally I'm changing my batteries in the flash about once a week! :cool:

Torn between 16 & 17 :S

Wasn't home til late last night from a shoot with our local camera club and the winning shot is already up IMO :)

Guessing this closes midnight tomorrow night? :)

Fantastic shots Dan!

Love the "I DO" :approve:

Black Rapid is probably my best recent purchase (apart from my glass upgrade) :cool:

Any sample shots from it mate? :) Also, what's the video like?

Awesome shots mate, I tried pushing my Sigma 70-300mm lens last September at the Portrush airshow over here -the good old Irish weather didn't help much with the light but I have a few shots up here in a thread somewhere that I could call useable :)

I'll be getting myself a wee Lumix sometime I think - mostly for the HD video it can get and it's so small :)

True - never even thought of that actually lol Won't be until after I pay off the other 2 gems anyway :)

No I have 2 D90's but I'd like to upgrade my Wide lens before going FF - it's deciding which one that's mind boggling me! :D

The 17-35/55mm 2.8 would be an ideal WA lens for a D700 or D3 then? :)

I know what you mean, I was debating with myself for a few weeks over the same dilemma lol :o Then I picked up a 2nd body ;) what body are you rolling with?

I love both of my f2.8's (70-200 as well) but if I need to go wider than 24mm I have my Sigma 10-20mm Or in extreme cases or "just for fun" I'll use my Nikon 10.5mm f2.8 fisheye (fantastic little lens and a good one can be got cheap on eBay) ;) The 10-20mm isn't or won't be as good as the Nikon...

I was in the same position not so long ago and went for the 24-70 f2.8 over the 17-55

I shot 1 so far (registry office wedding) who got me by chance at the last minute, and loved the photo's :) Also have another booked for October this year in our parish Church & then on to the reception for a few poses & candids - better kit (faster glass) now and have a 2nd body too and I'm...

Sl*ts then?

Sit on it? :p
