    Off Camera Wireless Flash Triggering.

    The ones Mark (demiloin) suggests will work fine. I've got the clever all singing and dancing ones, but the ones in my bag as I speak look like the ones mark linked. They just work every time I try them. Ok there's no ETTL and I have to touch the flash to change setting. Frankly I think it's...

    Challenge Nifty Fifty 2026 Chat Thread

    I've got an idea for the energy, just a matter of time to go and shoot it. I did a recce last week and shot a few pics, but on the Sony compact set to 50mm. I'll nip over with the Canon when I get chance.

    Micro sd cards?

    Probably give the amazon a go. 7day shop seem to be mostly out of stock as well. My mates bought about half a dozen cards overthe last month from various places, and they are all fakes. Two 128gb showed 112mb when I ran a test.

    Micro sd cards?

    I'm wondering if Amazon will be OK. They have their own brand but I don't know if they are any good. There's so many fakes. I'll check 7day shop later. Thanks mate.

    Micro sd cards?

    I'm after some v30 128gb micro sd for action camera (4k) I've looked at my memory but most seem to be out of stock. Any suggested sellers that are genuine. There's so many fakes about it's beyond a joke.

    Camera Club speakers

    Some of the most interesting speakers I've seen back in my CC days, were a cave photographer. Another was a fire brigade photographer. Maybe look outside club circles, local press etc?

    GoPro mission 1 MFT

    I cant see where they are going with this to be honest. It's like they took a GoPro and grafted on a lens. Why not make a proper micro 4/3 camera if your going to. If it's an interchangable lens action camera then they need rugged custom lens to survive the bumps and knocks, not just any old...

    GoPro mission 1 MFT

    I gather the micro 4/3 doesnt have auto focus which might be an issue. Wonder if it has a microphone input without having to buy a media mod? The 1 inch sensor is long overdue as is better low light. Real world overheating tests are what many will wait for.

    > 2400ws studio flash

    Have you considered movie lighting? If it's a static subjec you can get crazy bright movie lights, I saw some a while back they were I think 3000w each and you can get much brighter.

    Acdsee vs lightroom

    I haven't used the newer version of ACDC but the old one had a shadow highlight tool miles better than LR, you had more options and better tonal selections. For me the beauty of LR is being able to just click say 30 images and ajust all at the same time.

    Ring Doorbell, any good?

    Ours is useless. Next doors cat sets it off 3 or 4 times a day, but people coming to the house dont, it misses "err indoors" leaving but sometimes activates as she put the key in the door, it usually misses me altogether (think I'm too fast for it) frankly I'd look for something eles. A few of...
