Had them up and down a few time now and can confirm they come apart much easier if as I found above I don't run the rods through the halfway loops, just fit the rods at each end.

Thanks for the replies, had I known these were going to be so difficult to dismantle I would have gone for a different type. Been trying to figure out a easier way to strip them down after a shoot and think I have found a solution, I found if when assemble them I don't run the tension stays...

Hi all. Hopefully someone will be able to help with this. I have a couple of the Godox 60x90 soft boxes with Bowens S mounts, getting them together is easy enough, but stripping them down after a shoot is a different matter, what's the secret, all I have managed to do is either bent the stay...

With the D90 wanting to set a high ISO it sounds like it's not seeing the flash or receiving the flash is charged indication. Not got any Canon gear but I assume they have some sort of flash ready indicator visible in the viewfinder, if it does, does it show the flash is ready to fire. I use...

Hi all. A quick question I hope. When using the Raynox DCR-150/250 clip on close up lenses, does it matter if the lens they are attached to has a filter (UV/Skylight etc) already fitted, or does the filter need to be removed. Thanks. Paul

One bit of advice I was given by my GP when I had to get one was avoid the ones that go around your wrist, only get the type that has a cuff that goes around your arm. I got in from Lloyds pharmacy and it seemed to compare well with the one my GP used. They also did 3 different sized cuffs...

Hi all Anyone got any recommendations for a good solution to use to unblock a Pigment Ink Printer. DIY or Commercial. Thanks Paul

Hi all. I have an old but still working Epson Stylus Photo 2100 and was looking into getting some refillable cartridges and bulk ink to cut my printing costs. Trouble is I am a little confused about the ink type required as I understand the OEM ink is pigment based but most of the bulk ink...

Bet they now wished they hadn't done that meet and greet after the show at Bath last week :(

Very safe news, he was the voice of IL Divo. According to one news paper he succumbed to COVID-19, even though he was fully vaccinated. If it can overpower someone with his massive lung capacity god help the rest of us.

Problem sorted. I reflashed the firmware and the issue went away, it's now remembering the channel number.

Just double checked this with my V860ii and the procedure is as follows. Make sure you are using the G1 software. Connect flash to computer using usb cable. Battery must be fitted and fully charged. Start the G1 application. Load firmware. Select Connect. Select update. Update only takes a few...

I'm thinking it's just how it's been photographed, been 20 years since I last developed a film but I remember HP5 was rather dark compared to FP4

Thing is it looks clear to me, that's just the colour of the film base

Hi all Anyone got one of the Godox XPro flash triggers Does yours remember the set channel after power off, mine powers up on Channel 1 regardless of the channel set when last used, is that normal or does yours remember its last set channel. If yours remembers the channel did you do anything...
