Ok thanks. I was hoping someone might know what a matt screen 'looks like' since the glass itself appears to have no markings on it, vs the standard screen.

Hi, I have a 5D focus screen in the Canon kit box with the tool. The box is Ee S CZ6-9567. But, having sold the 5D years ago, I’m not sure if the screen is the original screen supplied with the camera or indeed the Matt screen. The screen itself appears to be unmarked and looks a bit like...

Thank you for the replies on this, much appreciated.

Hi All I really need some help choosing some lighting to help photograph circuit boards and other small products (typically 4 to 6" square). These 'Cubelite' things caught my eye: http://www.wexphotographic.com/buy-lastolite-58cm-cubelite/p12375 But would one or more table-top (or flash?)...

Thanks - really appreciate the input.

Thanks, I appreciate the input :thumbs:

Thanks, it's something I've been wanting to try for a while (but only just gotten a tripod).

Something mystical, mythical almost about the place. All the shots on this thread are great.

Spider shot is interesting - just a shame we can't quite see what it's eating. Detail on the fly is incredible (IMO).

Made me smile :)

One more: 7:

First real attempt at a car - please let me know what you think of these (however bad!) and anything that jumps as "would have been better if...". Many thanks! 1: 2: 3: 4: 5: 6: Thanks for looking!

Well there's the Canon 24mm 2.8 (here), or you should probably be able to pick up a 28mm 1.8 for that money used. Would one of the 70-200s be long enough for your motorsport needs?

Just to mention, this photo could have been gotten without the noise using exposure bracketing and a tripod, then stitching the sky onto the properly exposed base, or by using some HDR method to combine them.

Try photographing a ruler at an angle, and see if the AF focus point is not quite where you think it is: http://regex.info/blog/photo-tech/focus-chart
