I'm hoping someone my be able to point me in the right direction for info on setting up a 7D as a camera trap with a motion/laser trigger. I'm finding it very difficult to find information on what equipment is required, how to set it up etc.

I wouldn't go so far as to call it criticism, If anything too much is expected of him. Its more of a criticism of the England fans and english commentators. He is one of our best players, no doubt about it but what England lack which virtually every team has (minus the obviously rubbish ones) is...

As Liverpool fan i actually enjoyed last nights game, I've got high hopes for next season... the link up play between Gerrard and Suarez was fantastic! On a more serious note, i thought we were pretty poor, particularly defensively. The ball for the first goal should never have got into the...

Thanks for the replies! Have gone with No.1 as suggested. That's a really good way of looking at it, something i'll bare in mind in future crops!

This is going to be tough, i'd imagine the shuttle is going to be moving significantly quicker in the session I'm photographing too! I might have to get them to do it at Westgate badminton centre as its all blue with a elevated viewing area. Thanks for the feedback, looks like you were able...

I went on a trip to India in 2011 partly for business, but for 4 days safari at the end of the holiday in Ranthambore... I left my sodding camera bag at home! I managed to get an employee to post it over and my camera arrived on the second day of safari... The first day of safari we went out in...

I might have to suggest we use a different hall as getting up high with be impossible at our usual hall. Its amazing that they use such rubbish halls given the impact it has on you as a player also... nothing worse than a cluttered background where you lose the shuttle. What iso/shutter speed...

I've been playing around with this image for almost an hour now... i am happy with everything (i think) apart from how to crop it? does it need cropping? Original size Attempted crops... help!? 1. 2. 3.

I was wondering if anyone had taken pictures of competitive badminton? Ideally looking for some example shots where i can see the exif info to get an idea of camera settings. Despite playing for almost 10 years i've never actually attempted to photograph badminton, However my coach is wanting...

Really useful stuff, i'm going to have a play over the weekend to see if i can figure these features of LR out. I'd imagine there are a lot of useful features i have never discovered! Many thanks for your help!

I was aware of this with relation to nest sites, although i do have a query that you might be able to help with? Is there any issue then, in setting up a hide near a perch on a river (not that i have a location) as long as its not near a nest site (or to the best of your knowledge)?

I like that version actually, although my LR skills are fairly limited... Which area/tool did you use to reduce the focus on the grass... I'd like to experiment with this technique a bit as i can see it being useful on a number of my images! So much to learn! Thanks for your input, much...

So that went well then... haha :p
