Here we go, http://av.adobe.com/russellbrown/BrandingSM.mov I get lost at the Path bit and bodged my way around it maybe you'll have more luck... Managed to get this on all my shots..

As said Photoshop, will post a tutorial later but its an arse to set up, still not got mine working properly

430EX, bounced second curtain flash, Manual mode, F2.8 1/3 second shutter, ISO 400 and see how it goes. You may want to try it with normal flash though, as with second curtain it fires a small initial flash which people will think was the main one and may turn away.

bumpage, this ftw!

Been away from my camera for a few days so no more pictures :( Going to flag the eye shot: http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y167/BluePete85/IMG_7760-PS-Small.jpg

What software you using? They all look a little flat. Had a play with the last one, brought the exposure back up and added some contrast, made it look more natural. Edit: beaten to it, like that one, if your using photomatix run the tone mapping, should give a real good look.

is 85 f/1.8 + 1.4TC + 65mm tubes greater than 1:1? :clown:

Thanks, was just a snapshot, have to do it again with a better reflection, me and a dirty plate kinda kills it :o

How freaky, took these pictures of my new pet yesterday, say hello to Marmite.. Not sure which one to flag...

Nikon AFS DX 12-24mm f/4G is about the only Nikon choice, lots of 2rd party stuff though.. presume you want ultra wide..

Voted 3, where are all the number 4 votes people said they did :clown:

Nice shots, I'd say there about 1 and 2/3rd stops underexposed, which is probably complete jargon to you but had a play in photoshop to bring the exposure back.. :) This tutorial may help explain exposure... http://www.pbase.com/wlhuber/the_basics

great work duckeat, remember seeing them on dA! tis a good lens, admittedly I bought the Canon equiv but its such a good focal length to have :D

Thats a good shot Andy! Took my 40D and 1 prime away with me at the weekend and only came across this, rather boring I'm afraid lol, think I'll stick with the other as my marked shot..

Come on guys or in 3 days I win by default :o ukaskew: makes me want a Sigma DP1 for being so discreet or a Leica M8 (when I win the lotto)...

No personally experience with either lens but what matters more to you, the wide end or the long end?

This challenge is great, just realised how uncomfortable I am at street shooting, something to work on... walked past what could have been better but bottled it :o

That thing looks rather old, probably safe to say it'll need re-chipping (unless its just Canon that has the issue with old Sigma gear) which probably isn't possible now.

how old, what body is it on now? there's a chance it could need re-chipping which Sigma may or may not be able to do.

Your probably under exposing, if your in Av, does the number flash at you, this would indicate that your not going to get proper exposure. If your shooting hand held the best thing you can do is up the ISO to 800-1600, then use the lowest f/number available to you with partial metering...

Maybe a little early to say this but..... Fail.

Not sure if Windows Movie Maker can change the pictures quick enough. Own CS3? See the tutorial in the 6.5fps thread, would be a hefty file if it was a .gif though, interest in doing something like that myself... edit: just had a search on the POTN forums, they also mention Quicktime Pro or...

thanks, yeah not sure if it was actually hitting 6.5 and only stuck to 2-3 burst shots during the game (partially because I'm an idiot and left 5GB's of cards at home and had to use my back up 2x256mb cards) but its nice to have it available..

Shot my first lacrosse game with the new 40D, I'd have given up with my 350D just at the sight of rain, let alone no sun and mist, this thing is amazing, anyway enough rambling, 6.5fps ftw! .Gif and CS3 tutorial...

http://audacity.sourceforge.net/ Records anything you want as it plays then save as .mp3 and load into WMM.

Stick it in general, stick it in general :D

I'll vote when the poll appears but based on the theme its 2,3 or 4 for me.

Great pics, what sort of lighting were you using?

As said deffo sensor dust, really shows up at f/20. Depends how confident you are, need to do my old camera some time soon, got quoted £50-£60 by a local store, for that money I'll do it myself. Edit: have you tried something like a Giotto Rocket blower? could get some of it off...
