under exposure on sb800

Tom MacDonald 15.05.08, 22:07
Hello!

In addition to what Rob said. Make sure there is no flash compensation set in the camera. Also make sure that the SB-800 is set to TTL and not manual. The same with the camera, make sure that the flash setting are TTL and not manual. If I remember the d50 correctly, the flash sync speed is 1/250th.

All-purpose lens for Canon 400D

Laurina08 08.07.08, 17:33
Try the Canon 28-135mm IS (image stabilizer) lens, you'll be pleased with the results.

I'd also suggest that you visit a camera shop, have them install this lens to your camera, take a several shots and decided whether it is for you. Good luck

Nikon D200 and 17-55mm f/2.8 DX Lens

Mark Johnston 31.07.08, 05:24
I was an active member for a good while, so please let this post stay a while.

For Sale.

Wouldn't let me put it in the marketplace since I'm not a member anymore, but am selling my Nikon D200 along with a Nikon 17-55mm f/2.8 DX lens for $2000 obo.
The gear is in excellent condition and I just got the camera back from Nikon who did a once over and cleaned it and returned it like new. It works just great with no glitches and no cosmetic scratches.
The lens is in excellent condition with one small cosmetic scratch on casing. The glass is totally clean with a Hoya UV filter that went on as soon as it came out of the box.
I am currently working another internship in Pennsylvania and have gear provided. I have all original boxes back in Utah and can have them shipped to me before sending the gear to the buyer.
I can email photos to anyone interested.

Hello Brian, in my own opinion being a photographer, normally we are capturing moments and obviously moments comes only once, so if you can afford to buy a digital slr then I would suggest go for the best brands, I also use kingston and Sandisk, you might not know something will happen to your cheaper brands, ang all the memories and moments you captured were gone in a snap of a finger. :-)

Godbless and more clicking... :-)

Problem with my lens

Cristina Ioana S. 20.07.08, 23:25
I assume your camera works with other lenses (if yes then the camera is probably fine).

Try the lens on another Nikon and see if it works.

Sigma 30mm 1.4

Besneahrd 30.06.08, 17:34
Hi,

I am sorry I have never tested the Sigma 30/1,4. Based on tests as photozone, the good reputation I read in other forums and a more economic price I went for the Pentax 35/2,0 directly.
So I cannot compare both by own experiences and cannot name the impact of 1,4 vs 2,0.
And the performance of the Pentax at 2,0 was a big surprise: Very good! Only few vignetting and very sharp, good contrasts and colours.

cheers, Olli

Maiwand

Higher aperture range than specified?

Maiwand 13.05.08, 12:06
Olli's link is thorough. To boil it down into a few sentences:

The aperture rating of a lens is the largest size it will be at the extremes of it's mm range. Therefore at 18mm it's largest opening will be f/3.5 and at 55mm it's largest opening will be f/5.6. The smallest aperture rating of a lens is typically not quoted in commercial settings (eg. f/32).



In the world of aperture - the smaller the f number the larger the size of the hole (aperture) the light will go through via the lens. The larger the aperture (the smaller the f number), the less duration the shutter needs to be open to take a picture .... the less duration a shutter needs to be open, the more likely the shot will be stable and not blurred.


Read the full Wikipedia article, it talks about all the additonal factors which come into play.......

Advice Needed!!

EmilyNorfolk 16.05.08, 13:09
Hi Emily.Out of the list which you have provided I have shortlisted these two for you ie the Canon S5 and G9.Among the two I think you should go for Canon S5 since it has 12x zoom which can zoom in more loser to theobject.Its best for wildlife photography.With G9 you'll get raw mode and it also has a higher pixel count but doesn't zoom in better than S5.So I would suggest you to go for S5..All the best!! Am looking forward to have a look at your wildlife pics..

Lighting equipment in the US

Quantxx 21.01.08, 23:31
Hi Stan,

I've bought different new and used items in the US at B&H and KEH ( www.keh.com ). KEH is more focussed on used gear but as a company has a similar reputation as B&H. Their prices are more attractive and warrenty is OK. My experiences have been very good so far.

Be aware when you purchase lighting equipment in the US that it's probably for 115Vac only. You will have to use something to bring the voltage down. And check that you are not surprised with 25% import duty in your country like I once had here in the Netherlands. Besides that, I would go for it.
