    Elinchrom Five?

    From my testing it keeps the charge rather well and if I do need an extra bit of juice it helps I know the ELB 1200 used to have a huge mains power adapter where you’d remove the battery and add this. However the ability to use any power bank like the ONE is a nice to have

    Elinchrom Five?

    If you're wanting a studio version then you already have the ELC 125 or 500 models - then this FIVE is the battery on-location version of those. Yes you can use a USB-C powerbank or even a mains adaptor if you want to use the FIVE from a power socket

    Elinchrom Five?

    There’s not much online about the FIVE yet as it’s not been officially announced by Elinchrom themselves. Should see something over the next few weeks with stock arriving end of October start of November

    Nikon Z* mirrorless

    Depends if you shoot in low light and need that faster shutter speed without boosting the ISO. Nobody needs f/2.8 it’s just nice to have really but not at that price!

    Best way to check the current pricing is here - https://www.camerapricebuster.co.uk/Nikon/Nikon-Z-System-Cameras I know there's been a discount that Nikon have launched so maybe it's that?

    Nikon Z* mirrorless

    In video it’s like everyone else mentions online compared to the F mount FTZ lenses. Just so quiet at home with the lockdown it’s all I could hear ha

    Fitness Photography in the Midday Sun

    I didn't know that a slanting photo could cause so much up roar! Haha :) Don't worry I don't feel insulted - if I did I'd just send round the boys from the gym ;) Thanks for all the feedback and stuff.

    Gloucester Docks Sunday Afternoon

    I totally get what you mean, it was just a tester pretty much to get my head to grips with this Lee System. Ordered some hard grads, keep the soft for certain locations, that should arrive tomorrow so be out and about to try some more interesting scenes.
