My Nikon 70-200 f2.8 Mk2 is fantastic on the D500. If I could only take one lens only for virtually everything, this would be the one.

I've been using Silver Projects Professional for a few months but it's suddenly stopped working. I'm running version V1.13.02051 on Mac 10.10.2. I haven't done the latest OS X up date as I use Aperture and I'm aware that running the update will cripple this and, until I decide on a suitable...

On camera probably. I could set a Speedlight up on a light stand but with people walking about collecting awards it probably wouldn't be wise.

Like all things you don't know the answer to this seems like a dumb question but, here goes. I want to set a custom white balance for indoor shooting at an awards lunch. I understand the process of selecting the white ballance but I'll be using flash on the day. When I'm pointing my camera at...

Thanks Chris. This looks the kind of thing I need.

I'd be looking to clamp my spare camera (D300) to a section of Armco and have it triggered when a car (or motorbike) goes through a certain section of the track. Can anyone suggest anything suitable for the job? (The triggering gizmo, not the clamping one. I've got plenty of those already)

Hi Daniel. If you've shot at 2000 (2000th of a second) your shutter is open for a minute amount of time therefor not much light is being let through to your sensor. Although shutter speed priority leaves the camera to select your aperture, the camera will have limitations in certain...

Matthew, can you share with us what your actual rig consists of. Two in particular is excellent.

I'm struggling to see how any software can differentiate between one red Ferrari and another. I struggle myself on occasions and I've been photographing them for years. However, I'll be happy to be proved wrong. :-)

I'll be watching this post like a hawk in case someone comes up with a solution. I run two digital archives for hill climb clubs and part of my job is to submit photos for their event programmes. I use Aperture 3 and I'm currently going through the painful process of Keywording every photo (I...

I really like this shot in terms of colour and composition but can I ask what that is in the top right hand corner that looks like an orange tornado?

None taken, Mike. I'm all for custodians of the lost apostrophe etc. :)

Great point that will really help Stevan with his photography. Another example: 'pedants should be hanged'. :)

I looked at these last night and waited to see what comments you received as I rarely critique people work. As nobody's replied, I'll throw my opinions into the hat. Firstly, welcome to TP, Stevan. Image 1. An interesting building but you've broken the rule of thirds by placing it smack...

Really like the second shot due to the gate/fence etc and the excellent sky. The third shot is cool just for the fact that its so unusual to see a supercar so grubby :-)
