Oh I see. I've become so used to checking the in camera meter when not using a flash I was using it as a guide. I still often have to ignore it though and add some exposure compensation or if in manual change the shutter speed or aperture. I will remember to ignore it mostly when using the...

Thank you all for your help, I managed to get my dog playing last night with one of her toys, I needed the shutter speed slower and aperture wide and it was still showing as underexposed on the in camera meter- BUT with the flash, I managed to get some good shots that I can print for myself to...

Ok that is good to know. I am just trying to experiment with my camera, I have had it since joining the forums and wish to try some different things with it now to pass the time. I will try it indoors as today is pretty gloomy in Essex, and see how the results turn out :)

Ahh, now I have watched the video I understand! Thank you for your help, I will do some research into freezing motion during daylight with the equipment I have. I am sure there is a way for me to do it, and finding out is quite fun! It gives me something to do with my time and also learn...

Thank you for your reply. I may repeat myself, I do not mean to but had a brain injury that has really effected my memory. I was wishing to be able to freeze things such as my Mum throwing a toy to my dog, or things in the air. Hopefully after that video I will have a better grasp how to so...

Hi everyone. I am still trying with photography and enjoying it. I just want to freeze motion, but I can't seem to get my shutter speed to work faster than 1/200s with the flash. If I got a transmitter would this allow it, or do I need to get a higher end camera body just to practice a...

Hi everyone, I am still loving photography and feel my photos are improving but I am still yet to get a tripod. I would ideally need one that can reach around 5 foot in height at least, if this is what I need for studio photos. If I need something bigger advice would be much appreciated...

Hello everyone, I hope you are all well and have had a good Christmas. I want to get some of my photos printed in various sizes, I just am unsure which websites offer good quality prints. They will be various sizes I am printing, to give to family members and friends. There seem to be a lot...

Unfortunately I live here. We moved to get away from London when I was younger, as we used to have a caravan on kings ourselves! We used it in the summer and school breaks for holidays. My family liked here compared to London, so we moved. It's turned into a right S**thole now, people are...

There is that symbol, I Never checked and wasn't aware this was the diameter of the thread. At least I now know for the future, I just ordered the lens without realising there were 2 different ones with different sizes.

I know it's a joke, but I'm pretty broke at the moment. A new lens will be purchased as soon as I can afford it for my needs ;)

Ahh balls, it is 55! Thats strange though, I have the D3500 which I would of expected to be the newer version so smaller. Hopefully the seller will be understanding of my mistake.

Well as long as your real name isn't John, you're not my Dad lol. I don't know mine and have been trying to find him for years, but I was born in London and not from a Canvey Shag lol. Nothing has changed on that front, easy girls everywhere! I wholeheartedly accept your apology if it was one of...

Hi everyone, I bought a filter online for my Nikon 18-55 f 3.5-5.6G VR as I lost the lens cap, and thought a filter will save me taking it on and off all the time. However, it turned up today, it says it is a 52MM filter but when I try to put it on, it fits inside but doesn't screw in, and...

You know what, you are right, I had completely forgotten it had changed. I said to the lady when I am at a level to get paid for my work, I will gladly take out another check. I am not getting payed for my work and am just enjoying my hobby at the moment. When I was at work I knew plenty of...
