    SB-600 & RF603 triggers

    I was about to buy a set of the triggers to use with my SB600 and Smartflash, but noticed in the ebay ad that these don't work with the SB600! Are there any other options of similar cost to wirelessly fire these two flashes together?

    Wow, these are incredible! The detail is superb, love them all, but No. 3 is my fave. Thanks for sharing. The Robin is my favourite bird :)

    Help me fire my flashes together

    I think I am not going to be able to fire my two flashes without any triggers, but just wanted to check if I'm missing something. I have a D90, SB600 and Lencarta Smartflash, and I want to be able to fire both the flashes together. If I use the built in as a commander it only syncs with...

    When would you put work on your portfolio?

    I've done some work for a customer and was wondering when its a good time to add to the portfolio on my website? After they publish the pictures to their website, or as soon as i send them the images? I was hoping to get it up asap really.

    Speedlight external battery pack

    That settles that then! I guess I'll just get more rechargable batteries and swap them more often..

    Speedlight external battery pack

    I had a quick search but couldn't find anything. I have a Nikon SB600 and need to increase the life of the batteries - what are my options? Ideally I'd like something that can attach to the unit so it's compact-ish.

    Talk to me about backgrounds

    Reading other threads, I have picked up on there being a sense of white backgrounds 'going out of fashion', a bit boring, people getting tired of them etc. What is the new 'fashion'? What are people asking for as the background colour? Do they in fact ask for a specific colour in a studio...

    Group shot - 16 people, 1 speedlight?

    I will try to visit before and get some test shots. What is the light spread like width wise at 10ft? I will see if the ceiling is white if I get chance to visit. Thanks for all the advice much appreciated. :-)

    Group shot - 16 people, 1 speedlight?

    To be honest the eBay lights are useless! I'll try your suggested method, thanks for the tip. I hope they have a huge room as 16 in a small living room will be a tad cosy! Not discussed price yet...

    Group shot - 16 people, 1 speedlight?

    I have been asked to do a family shot for a lady, initially only going to be 4 adults and a baby. Then she said it could now be 12, then last night I got a message to say it's likely to be 16. Trouble is I only have one SB600 speedlight, and two cheap ebay softboxes with '500W' lights in them...

    D90 spare part - SD card cover door

    Does anyone know where I can buy a new SD Card cover door for a Nikon D90? I know it only is held on with 2 small screws so just need a new door to fit! I've tried ebay and other sites with no luck as yet...

    Product shots - am I on the right lines?

    Ok, I have only only had time to have another go at the glasses, and below is my attempt. I hope you can see the improvements and what did I do differently?
