So I have been shooting motorsport for almost 2 years now and my canon 55-250 has done me well for a budget lens. I have been picked up by a drift team to cover them for the 2015 season and feel like it's time for a new lens. I am using a crop body of can use either ef or efs mount. I have been...

Was just looking at this. Not the cheapest set up on there but by no means expensive. http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B005KYK1UU/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?qid=1408295071&sr=8-1&pi=SX200_QL40

Hi all. So after being into Motorsport photography for a while I have moved onto weddings and have had requests for family portraits. I have no issue with lenses and equipment but don't know where to start on studio lighting. At first I plan to do it from either my home or customers. I don't...

Not a bad shout. The company i work for seem to like cheesy things so that might go down well Will have a look and see if i can get some ideas. thanks.

They have never done anything like this before. I work for a company who have just started stocking apple products so have a few apple related competitions such as baking and the photo for example.

My team at work has been set with a task of taking an apple related photograph die to launch of a new product. It is a bit of a competition between a few of us and I cant think of anything to do that is a bit different and unusual. Any ideas?

It is going to be second hand but i dont mind that. For what i shoot manual focus is just not going to cut it. I do motorsport so need to have autofocus. I am not bothered about having something that is 100% sharp and crisp because a lot of my shots are panning so its not like you are going to...

Just had a look into that and cant really find any that would be in budget. Max i could stretch to is about £200 I think that would not quite be what i am looking for as i dont need the 270mm length and could do with being closer than 70mm as i do get fairly close to the action. I looked...

Hi all. I am looking for a bit of advice on my next lens. I use a 450d and have had the kit 18-55 is2 lens. This has now had it and will no longer auto focus. I have a budget of around £150 to spend. Most of my shooting (95%) is drifting and motorsport so do a lot of panning. I am looking at the...

Morning all. I was shooting a drift event over the weekend as i have done many times this year which was fine and got some really good pics. However with the early nights now here the drifting carried on into the night and my pics just got worse and worse. 2 of the other togs on the day got...

Much appreciated thank you.

Evening all! Just joined today so thought I should formally introduce myself. I am Chris, I have been shooting motorsport for about 8 months now. I mainly do grass roots drift events but looking to start doing more off road and rally stuff next year. I still use very basic kit. I have a 450d...

Thats good to know thanks, Where can you buy them from?

One thing i wanted to ask is with the cheap B&Q and Wickes double suction cups how do you connect the poles to them? Can i get a close up pic to give me an idea? Thanks.

Could always throw some tightly wrapped bubble wrap around it but then that is going to give you more to photoshop out.
