    Beginner Compatible Speedlight transmitter for Canon 5d.

    HI Phil, Thanks a lot for your patience and sound advices. I quickly realised to really use Speedlight you need to really understand it beyond just as a flash light. I will get the book as well. Yeah, I moved to M now and I am doing good and this is where the Speedlight is giving me a...

    Beginner Compatible Speedlight transmitter for Canon 5d.

    what I mean, and I am trying to remember my youth ;-) back in the days of Canon A1, I used to put the camera on AV and then put on the flash. I see the flash symbol in the viewfinder, but it makes no difference to shutter speed. For example, if I put my aperture to f8, flash on, I still have to...

    Beginner Compatible Speedlight transmitter for Canon 5d.

    Beginner Canon 5d Compact Flash card - best?

    Thanks guys. I just got the camera :-) right now. got it for £300 but looking at it, it looks spanking new, not a single scratch or dirt anywhere. I will check the shutter count later (what is the expected lifetime?) I am not heavy user anyway. check firmware 1.1.1, got a sandisk compact flash...

    Beginner Canon 5d Compact Flash card - best?

    Hi All, I have a Canon 60D camera with assorted lenses and I love it to bits (ie.it does what I need :) ). Secretly and behind the missus back (I stopped smoking :) ), I was saving for a full frame camera, nothing fancy. I just ordered a 5D in excellent condition (I am still thinking of an...
