Had a little play the other night. Can't wait to try again, next time with different angles and setups. This mini shoot was more to see how possible. This is my favourite shot from the night. Although in hindsight, could have done with a fourth light snooted to put a rim on the riders back...

Thanks Phil that's great. Need to kind of work out what I want to do and stick to it. If they want me to do their shoots, then that's what they get? It is something I'd like to push into more. But as you say, need to find my style as that's what will make me different.

Its not numbers I'm after as such, just a rough idea if you go all out and take as many as you can and hand them over, or if you took select shots and concentrated solely b+g and there activities. I just dont want to make myself look amerturish including photos of guests and such that uncle...

I only hand over shots that I'm happy with, sharpness and exposure and so on. I don't give shots that almost the same as the next. Can't see the point in that. I just didn't know if you professionals take the kind of shots that uncle Bob could of taken, or if you just concentrate on the big...

The weddings I've done. For example, start to finish, there has been all usable photos given. So instead of like 3-4 shots of the bride getting ready, if I took 30, and 25 of them we all fine, not duplicated, I've gave all 25. I couId perhaps narrow it down to 50 shots through the full day...

I've done 4 weddings so far, friends and friends of friends and such. When it comes to photos, how many on average are you taking, how many are you handing over? For instance, a full day. I generally take about 700. But was wondering, do you lot include every usable image, or is it just the key...

Weddings, church and reception as far as low light is concerned. For me, the ISO doesn't feel strong enough and I can't always shoot wide open or use flash.

Again, good replies! I've currently got the D7000. 18-105 which I'm switching for mid zoom 2.8 70-200 2.8 50 1.8

The D750 certainly looks a beast spec wise

Some good arguments! The 600's af is a little concern. I may look into the 800 too although the 36mp might be a bit over kill. Will need a new pc then too, lol. For the sake of a 150 part ex on mine, I may get the 7100 while I save up for ff

Not looked into the D600 issues yet, but will do. As for focus I normally use single point anyway and recompose. Or if doing event stuff, single point-continuous

Right, some help please you lovely lot. I'm upgrading to ff. D600 or D700 I mainly shoot portraiture. One of my main issues is low light. I know the D600 has twice the mp. Which would you recommend?

Thanks for the feed back, this was my first show and was experimenting. I'm normally a portrait person this was first time doing event. So will put what you say to practice!

I'm the resident photographer for Molyneux Farm shows. Here's a couple from the last show Hunter (1) by KDerner, on Flickr Show Jumping (2) by KDerner, on Flickr Riden (5) by KDerner, on Flickr

Yeah I know about slave, however my scenario is, I'm using my non hss flash for high speed tail sync. And slave is not firing. My budget is a bit tight at the min. Ideally I'd have multiple yn568ex's and a handful of 622 triggers. A single gun is not powerful enough hence wanting to double up, I...
