    Free lighting e-book

    Hi Garry, If you think your book would be of value to a food photographer, I’d love to get a copy? Fully happy to hop over to Amazon and review for you too!

    This one here View: https://youtu.be/nuoc53wcnbc Super straight forward and to the point. Can create some great results too. I got the same backdrop, but opted for the Godox octobox for my off camera flash. He has more in-depth videos too though.

    Not even lying, after watching his home studio set up I’ve bought a black and white backdrop, a godox octobox and mount.. a godox wireless transmitter.. and I’ve already started marketing as a LinkedIn/social media head shot photographer [emoji23]

    He’s kind of the reason I just got some gear for headshots. Makes it look so simple [emoji23]

    Testing out using off camera flash. Really want to explore portraiture more. Love the black and white moody type headshots. Anyone have any good books/YouTube channels/podcasts they would recommend for me to dive into? Doesn’t have to be specifically portraiture.. Note: Both models hated...

    XF. I didn’t know there was an XC until I actually started researching to purchase. It’s the second lens I’ve bought from MPB (other one is 90mm f2) and I’ve been very happy with them. Will definitely go back for more.. when I work enough to pay for these... [emoji23] Thanks. She’s a little...

    Testing out the new 35mm F2. Think I’m a little in love.

    Lighting advice?

    I do have a softbox which I took with me. It’s rather big and plugs into the wall. Which makes it not an ideal piece for when I’m working the press board. Wires in the way on the floor. Any recommendations for something a little smaller and battery powered then?

    Lighting advice?

    Hi guys, I know this forum isn’t google, but I just value everyone’s opinions and advice... and I find it helps me justify spending money ‍♂️ I’m looking for a light source that I can use at events, mainly at the press board that I am inevitably placed on. A fellow photographer used the...

    Yep. All up to date! I shot a mixture of standard and astia. Majority were in standard simulation though. Can’t seem to find the clarity setting in my film simulation menu either. SD card is a scandisk. 64 gig.

    Hello again Fuji friends [emoji16] Question... more of a concern really. Had our second commissioned event of the week today. I solely used the ‘refurbed’ X-T3. It keeps freezing and takes a loooooong time to process images. When the camera freezes, sometimes when it’s turned off the LCD...

    Lord, I am in love with my new 90mm F2. Still finding my feet with it as it’s definitely not without its challenges for the types of photography I do. I took it along to a launch event on Thursday with the other half’s XT-4. Despite the lighting being pinker than pink panther, my shutter speed...

    So last night one of our clients sent us a takeaway roast dinner as a thank you. I took a few photos. I took them in velvia and it’s the first time that I really found it a little too in my face. Is there some difference in colour recognition between XT3 and xt30? Also, file transfer on the...

    “New” camera arrived today. Popped over to the park with the other half so we could both have a play.. I actually quite like the 18-55. So I think I’ll just sell the XT-30 with its lens. Annnnyway, out of interest, do you guys use the built in filters? Which is your favourite? I’m a velvia fan...

    Thanks for the reassurance @Dryce & @macvisual I guess I’ll find out tomorrow. [emoji23] Now. Next purchase. A flash to go on my new XT-3. Any suggestions? Please don’t let this one be too much of a minefield too [emoji24][emoji23]
