Hello all, I'm looking to experiment with some e-ttl off-camera flash. Im looking to source phottix stratos (or any other e-ttl 2.4Ghz flash triggers) in the uk or from europe. Any help?

Right. Basically. Ive been asked to shoot footage for a documentary in south america, using HDSLRS. Im looking for advice from togs with experience shooting in jungle conditions, about keeping batteries alive, keeping stuff dry and keeping stuff safe. Looking for suggestions for bags...

depends how precise you are at capturing an image. think about a sniper. Boom Headshot - 1 bullet marine - SPRAY SPRAY SPRAY - 400 bullets. both do the same job.

he means a splash page.

MacBook pro screens are untouchable in both aspects of colour and contrast. Really nothing even comes close.

id say buy a panasonic compact rather than a crap old beat up second hand SLR thats 6 years old and could die at any minute.

tell him to stop being cheap and get the real money out.

regardless of the fact they are pre-charged, do eneloops hold any other advantage over say 7day shops (not good-to-go) ni-mh batteries?

you can't get replacement cases i dont think. What i would advice however is a Speck Case for them. They are essentially plastic cases that clip onto your MB. Ive had one on my MBP since about a month after i got my mac, its kept it in pristine condition. Its taken alot of scratches for my mac...

The 17-55mm is the best lens you can put on a crop body bar primes. the 24-70mm is a lower resolution than the 17-55mm because it is designed for smaller sensors.

its already sitting at 599 in the uk in some places, cant see it dropping any further before they stop making it. However i reckon it will still retain alot of its value the same way the 40d did.

i used a sigma 24-70 pre buying my 17-55mm - its deffo not wide enough without getting quite a distance between you and your subject. 17-55mm is your best bet on a crop. 24-105 aint quite as high reso as the 17-55.

10-22mm total brilliant lens.

7d is way better than the 50d, First time i looked through the VF i was like 'woah, its like a jet fighter HUD'

no flash sync port :(
