Yes I see there are some very interesting designs, I will see what I can construct :) :canon:

At present i have the on camera popup flash and a separate speed light. To take these shots hand held I had to switch to a high iso to keep the shutter speed to a reasonable setting to be able to take the shot.

I have been trying some macro in the garden, any advice on best camera setup if you don't have a macro flash? Images by davis.anthony64, on Flickr Images-2 by davis.anthony64, on Flickr Image-3 by davis.anthony64, on Flickr

Thanks everyone for your advice. My main reason for asking was I normally only want to print a few images at a time. To make it feel cost effective I need to wait and batch up 10 - 20 print to justify the £8:50 delivery charge. There is also the beauty of being able to get an instant result. I...

Hi I am starting to produce work that I would like to print A3 size. At preset I have an all in 1 print that produces average photo prints unto A4 (but the printer was not brought as a photo printer). Am I better off sending my images off to a professional lab like Pro Am where I can get my A3...

I am trying to keep my ISO as low as possible (low 100's) by extending the exposure time. I'm guessing the best way to see the difference is to take two shots and compare them afterwards. Thanks again to everyone for you advice.

Hope you get some great shots Dean.

Thank you everyone for you all your advice. I have settled for a cheap and cheerful generic wired remote. This should get me started, can wait for it to arrive to start to play. Will post some images when I have had a chance to play.

Thank you both, I will look into both options

I have started doing some late night photography. I have reached the 30 second limit for setting the camera shutter speed and I know I now have to move to bulb mode. Can anybody recommend a reasonable priced remote trigger with timer for a Canon 7d. I see Canon sell a Timer Remote Controller...

Hi All I am looking for some advice. I am have recently brought a macro lens for my Canon camera and I have already found that I need to add more light to my photography. I noticed that the Canon macro flashes are very expensive and would it would take a lot of convincing before I would...
