Thanks guys, to be fair I was trying to make them look a bit portfolio-ish, to try and make them look as professional as possible, perhaps i should have gone with my better judgement and just had a bit of fun with it. I wood is under cover and not reached by the sunlight at this time of year...

Thanks Shaheed, valid input. The first shot i think you are right, she looks a bit distant. The second, that was how the light was, thought i got so lucky having the sun dip out for a second.

Thanks Tim, I guess you are right, a smile might be better. I think i was trying to take it to serious, after all i have not done stuff like this before really, so i was probably trying to make the most of the opportunity and make a bit more out of it that just a Christmas present. I do not...

Hey, now i have not used this forum for a long time, and never used the portrait section. However i am in Bavaria visiting my girlfriends family and for Christmas, Simone (said lady friend) wants to give her mum a portrait of herself, i offered to have a go as i think its time i started to get a...

Thanks Harvey, for the money though im prob better off just getting another YN-565exii

I have this lens, i have had it for years, its fantastic. I would like the VC version, but at 2.8 its plenty sharp enough and the VC on such a side lens is not necessary, mine might be up for sale, PM me if you are interested. (bet i broke a rule there, so hawking or something right) Or just go...

another question, is there such a thing as a receiver that will make the Metz fire in say manual mode, as a fill, while the YN with full ettl as the main flash. does that make sense. so like a little thing that attaches to the botton of my metz, that will take a signal from the 600d, wireless...

Thanks guys, the Metz is ok, for general e-TTL stuff in my experience, but thats pretty limited experience. I have had it for about 7 years and paid something around £40 for it off ebay, so no great loss, i will still use it as a backup mounted flash, or a handheld manual for long exposure...

Hi, im pretty new to all this flash stuff, i have a Metz 44-AF-4C which is a great on camera flash, but i cont figure out (pretty sure it can't be) how to make it fire off the camera, i thought that one of the little sensors behind the red bit at the front was a sync flash thingy that would...

yer spotted that, but all of it, shipped for £306 is pretty dam good, he has never used it and only just bought it, apparently. has a receipt from 6/5/2013 Looks tidy, being owned by a German you just KNOW its been looked after lol

ok got this picture, probably why he is selling it as he clearly can't take good photos lol but im gona go with that being a definite B

ok asked him for a pic, he also just told me it is still under warranty, so it must be a B as that would make jan 2013

thanks guys, yer it's got to be a B right, there is no code U8. I will ask for a picture, but i get the impression that i am already wearing him thin asking so many questions with google trranslate

Hi guys, i am looking at buying a lens from a guy in Germany, i will be back over there soon and would like to buy it now and have it sent to my girlfriends parents, its a good price. Thing is, i am emailing the guy asking for the code so i can check the date, as he says its very new, i would...

So if im using my standard RAM that came with the computer, and then added my nice stuff, will the computer just run at the lower speed. problem is i only have an expansion slot, the other stick is facing the other way and i cant change it without opening the laptop up.
