    What yongnuo flash/triggers should i buy?

    I'll take a look at the YN 568EXII. It seems like the 622c TX is the trigger/controller to go for over the ST-E3 then. Thanks for the advice guys it is greatly appreciated!

    What yongnuo flash/triggers should i buy?

    Hi, I'm looking at buying a new flash along with some new triggers but there are quite a few different models to choose from. I currently have a Canon 580 EX II and a Canon EX 430 II with a 5d Mark II which i am triggering with Yongnuo RF602 triggers. I want to add another flash (maybe two)...

    Canon EF 70-300mm f/4-5.6L IS USM UD vs 70-200mm f/4 IS USM (and 1.4x extender)

    i have recently purchased the 70-300L, the main reason i chose it over the 70-200 is my need for longer focal length. I find with telephoto zooms i always long for more reach, the difference between aparture isnt very big and its only really on the longer end. I find the IS amazing and dont...

    wide angle lens decision help

    I currently own a canon 10-22 but had a sigma 10-20 for about a week, both great lenses. Comparing images from both lenses closesly i would advise saving money and getting the sigma as i don't see a noticable difference. I dont think the canon (although a good lens) is worth the extra money...

    Canon 50mm choice... help me make my mind up!

    I just upgraded my 50mm 1.8 to the 50mm 1.4 and i am very happy. I also thought about the sigma, but i decided some time ago to always try and stick with canon if i can afford it. The Sigma gets some good reviews though.

    Help have I been attacked

    I agree with lemming, if after trying the software recommended (i also recommend spybot s&d and ad-aware) the problem is still there and if kaspersky don't fix it then do a complete reinstall. It might be a pain but i would rather that, than spend days tryin to fix a problem and have to do it...

    Future-proof Pc for Lightroom/CS4

    Have to agree here, i used to always go with AMD but since the core 2 duo, intel have taken the lead by quite a way. AMD processors are not bad and could be a good option if you are on a budget but if you have the money then go for an intel i7. I am running an i7 920 (clocked to 3.8ghz)...

    Hi, I got a Canon 430 EX II Flash unit, i have 2 sets of four batteries. I often charge my batteries so they are ready for use, only to find a week or so later when i come to use them that they have gone flat. They work fine if i use them straight after charging. They seem to lose charge if...

    Canon 40d or Nikon D90

    I would say the Nikon D90 as its newer. Now if it were between the Nikon D90 and the Canon 50D (which aint far apart in price) it would be 50D for sure. Oh i also agree with what topcat said, try before you buy and get what feels best! When i went in to buy my first DSLR i went in the...
