Those look great but are no longer available. I was looking specifically for a kit containing the softbox,the stand and the adapter (if necessary)

Hello I want to buy two kits of lightstand,adapter and softbox to use them with my YN-560s and RF-602s Do you have any good (as cheap as possible) recommendation? I could use umbrellas but I'd prefer softboxes. Regards

The slave setting on the YN-460 is not very reliable in my experience.The sensor is in the head and since I'm using the YN-460's to illuminate a white background (for isolated on white pictures) the flash heads are directed to the white background and the sensor is hidden from the main flash...

Hi I want to use my 550ex on camera keeping ETTL but I also need to be able to trigger a couple of YN-460 flashes using rf-602 remote triggers. The problem is that if I use the 550ex in my camera hotshoe I can't obviosuly insert the remote trigger there. Is there any accesory I could...

Yes, I had thought that could be the reason. Thanks

Hi I have a Redsnapper tripod with a three way head. Yesterday I bought a very cheap (£10) ball head to give it a try. By the way I bought it at West End Cameras in Tottenham Court Road. The ball looks sufficiently well engineered but ...and here comes my problem, it has just one knob that...

Nissin Di622 Sigma EF 500 DG Super Those are great flashes for a fraction of the money. The Nissin is 96 pounds new and the Sigmas goes second hand for about the same. http://www.microglobe.co.uk/catalog/product_info.php?pName=nissin-di622-digital-flash-for-canon-eos-ttl-ii-camera

Thanks.I'll keep the 550

I have a nearly mint Canon 550ex that I bought second hand and has served me well but ... Would it be a good idea to sell it to buy a 430ex II? Is the digital compatibility and more modern technology of the 430exII worth the hassle? What worries me is that perhaps the 430 will not be...

Now if you still have funds, try to get a Canon 50mm f/1.8 here in the forums. They run for 50 to 60 used and 75 new from Kerso.

My daughter is eight and I have exactly the same problem. I just let her plan some shots , use the camera and we go with her ideas sometimes. However she will get bored soon. When that happens...Bribery is the only way :D

But she know what F-stops are. We are not talking rocket science here. At least try to compensate exposure. Otherwise you will get underexposed pictures in the beach.

if you are interested in a Camera capable of great pics as well as HD movies consider the Canon 550D. If movies are not your thing the 500D is very similar and obviously cheaper. I've also heard great things of the Pentax K-x

I like it. The cropping and the B/W conversion
