Sorry its been a week, massively busy with work! Legarm: Your best bet is to take a look on eBay. I picked mine up for £63.99 - look for the user chantelysee - http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=330513148045&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT. The seller was great. The flash itself is...

Brilliant! I'll get one then! Cheers

Is there an issue with using replacement batteries that have a different mAh? I've got a 450D and the battery says 1080mAh but most replacement ones are 1600mAh. Would this be a problem? Sorry for the stupid question! Cheers!

Well, I'm going to go for it and buy a wireless trigger too. If you're prepared to wait I'll let you know when it gets here (should be by Friday at the latest!) how it stacks up!

I think so, but I'll wait for someone else to put in their thoughts! I've read that it can overheat if you use it too much, but i don't think it'd be an issue for me. Here's a review/comparison with the 430EX ii: http://speedlights.net/2010/12/30/yongnuo-yn468-vs-430ex-ii-canon-speedlite/

Just found the YN468 for £67 (inc P&P). Think i might order it...

You're correct. Just reading around on the 460 and it doesnt have TTL (although, the seller advertising it says it does...) The 465 is going for £50 and the 467 for £63 (including P&P). Any good?

Just searching around, is the YN460 mk2 any good for £47?

Very much in the same boat as the first poster. I'm looking to spend no more than £75 if I can help it as I don't want anything particularly special, mainly just for on body use. I've seen the nissin Di622 for £94, which I might be willing to stretch too if you think its worth it? Cheers

Well that is good to know! Glad it was only an idea! :P I think i watched a tv program about this thinking it was crazy at the time!

I have some pipistrelle bats in the garden and wondered if there was a good way to photograph them? I've only recently gotten into 'proper' photography, so i presume this isn't going to be easy, but I fancied giving it a go! Any suggestions welcome. EDIT: thinking about it, I've posted this in...

I got It from amazon anyway (I don't really shop at many other sites) so I did only pay £11. It's a good book so far. Not really teaching me that much that's new at the moment but it is useful to have the basics cemented and im not that far in. The language can be poor at times, but it does the...

I got the book this morning! Looks like it should be a good read but I shan't sink my teeth in it till tonight I don't think.

Having spent £1k this month on gear, I think I'm doing pretty well! :S Next month it'll only be £600 and the month after too. Then I should be satisfied for a while..... I hope!

Ordered! This has been an expensive month for photography stuff!
