    Nikon D800......

    Me too. I bought mine last year (second hand) but I haven’t even touched the depths of its capabilities yet. I’m glad I took the plunge and don’t think I’ll be ‘upgrading’ for a good many years yet. PS I don’t post photos much on here as I’m more of a portrait person. Stunning landscapes though!

    HSS flash/speedlight

    Thank you for the examples, helps. I think that’s what I’ll do. My camera has a low base ISO. And I recently changed/upgraded. I’ll look into it.

    HSS flash/speedlight

    Yes please to the examples @juggler, thank you. I think as I won’t be trying to overpower the sunlight that regularly it makes sense to stick with what I have for now. Thank you. The flash fired but as the sun was so bright, it wasn’t strong enough to even make a dent in terms of lighting her...

    HSS flash/speedlight

    Thanks for the response @soeren the f/stop was 2.2 ISO 100 and shutter speed 1/1600. Are you suggesting using ND filters along with the flash (and reflector ‍♀️)? @Phil V i wanted to take a portrait where the ambient light is underexposed and the subject correctly exposed by using the flash...

    HSS flash/speedlight

    Sorry I wasn’t clear. I wanted to balance the ambient light with flash. The light was perfect for it (sun not too strong), but when I used my Yongnuo, it didn’t even touch the sides with regards to lighting the subject. The shutter speed for the correct ambient exposure was 1/1500 - 1/2000 if I...

    HSS flash/speedlight

    After failing to take some photos I wanted this weekend, I realised I need a HSS capable flash. I use Nikon and currently have two of the YN560iii and the YN560-TX controller. So which would you recommend? Budget wise if I would prefer not to spend more than £160. I’d also like recommendations...

    MPB - Awful service - patience required.

    I agree, I think they should have let people know. By email and possibly putting a note on their site so potential customers would be aware.

    Please don’t cancel. They have dealt with me now after Clare passed my details on. Hopefully the backlog is clearing and it’ll be back to business as usual sooner rather than later.

    I recently sent a lens to them. Yesterday (Wednesday) was 5 days and I didn’t hear from them. I’ll give them the benefit of the doubt and wait till Friday before I chase them up. I used them earlier this year and it was a quick process. But now I’m worried as there seem to be a few people...

    Printing

    Who do you use to print your photos? I’ve printed before but can’t for the life of me remember who I used, or find the email ‍♀️ And who do you use for photo books? I’m trying to possibly plan in advance for Christmas presents.

    TP 52'ers Class of 2016 Discussion thread Week 52 we made it! time to celebrate /( celebrations)

    I'm more than 8 weeks behind and I don't see myself getting much time over the coming weeks. So unfortunately I'm going to have to provisionally bow out. I will try and see if I can get photos done for the themes but I can't promise I will manage it. Disappointed, but life is getting in the way...
