Hi, I'm looking for some expert help. I'm going to be doing a timelapse of my talented girlfriend, doing a sketch and I want to do 2 angles. I have 1 intervalometer and 2 flash sync receivers/transceivers and 1 shutter sync cable. In my head there is an easy way to sync these cameras up but I...

Yeh that's what i'm thinking, been searching the web all day and there was hardly anything, probably will just overload on SD cards. It is a bit weird that they aren't cheaper seeing as though you can get a 1tb harddrive for under £100 but if you want the capacity to put SD Cards in it you...

So I'm going to be off travelling in the summer for a couple of weeks and will be taking plenty of photos and videos of the journey, and have the dilemma now that I need to store my files on the move, I don't really want to take my laptop because it is too bulky, and I don't really want to take...

Hi there, i'm looking to get some of my photos printed as A3 posters and just wondered if anyone could recommend a printers that offer good quality but with reasonable prices?

Coming from an audio background, I would always use a dead cat wind filter which you can get for the rode videomic series and just try and shield the wind or record at a different time/place. I wouldn't rely on in-camera audio filters. Wind is the enemy!

I need a bit of advise. I am looking to upgrade my glass and purchase a 24-70mm lens. I am a Canon man so I have been looking at the Canon 24-70 EF f/2.8 L which costs around £1000 but since looking I have seen the Sigma version for almost half the price. Is there much of a difference between...

Thanks for your comments! Yeh I was going to colour correct but made the conscious decision to keep it blue to go with the whole blue planet theme.

Hey, this is a video I did of my mate shark diving at Chester's Blue Planet Aquarium. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9i0AExmimqY I filmed on my Canon 550D with the 18-55mm kit lens on a little shoulder rig and edited in Adobe Premiere 5.5 and After Effects 5.5. Thanks for watching and...

Hi, can anyone help me? I am looking to get a remote control for my camera and they're all pretty inexpensive but there are wired and infrared ones. Does anyone have an opinion on which is best? Cheers

Brilliant thank you everyone that really helps!

Ok sorry yes I should have elaborated a little. I am going to be doing a shoot with an elderley gentleman at his home, so he would be sat in his armchair in his living room. Would I be best using natural light from a window and use a reflector or use 2 sidelights (softboxes) and a backlight...

I have one of these tripods and it really does the trick, it has all the things you need on it i.e. spirit levels, adjustable head and its really sturdy. I would suggest looking at Amzon first though i got mine for just under £15!

Hi All, I have recently bought myself a Canon 500D which is my first DSLR camera and treated myself to a 50mm f1.8 lens as I got told this is a decent lens for portraiture. So what I ask is what are some good lighting positions to get interesting portrait shots? Thanks
