MartynK, as I have already asked you not to post off topic, which you ignored. May I make you aware of one of the forum rules under general conduct. "Please don't take forum threads "Off Topic". However, the 'original poster' ("OP") of the thread is given more leniency to do so." Do not...

Will you please stop posting irrelevant crap in my thread. And no im not confussed, in a bit more detail this is what hapend. I did not understand if the lens he was trying to sell me was actually what I needed for shooting close ups of models. After talking on here to a few people ive...

This is becoming awfully complicated now :lol: So, ttl is out of the question as I dont have a flash commander. The only way I can have an off camera flash outdoors is buy using a radio trigger? I could use a flash indoors in slave mode, if I also use the pop up flash. Im right?

Downhill mtb isnt a majour priority, I was think of just using the 18-55 for now, do you think the 35mm would strike a good balance for both situations, models/bikes etc. Having a sb600 would also work as a commander wouldnt it? So in the future I could a di-622, are there any other cheaper...

Wasnt aware of that, ill do abit of searching, cheers. Im fed up of talking about trading in the d40. So, can we please keep all this on topic, that is I have £300 to spend on a flash and lens for a d40 used or new. The lens needs to be good for close ups of models. The flash...

Fair enough, I dont think its a good deal but they can offer whatever they want, but not obeying by trading laws is another matter, along with pc world, currys and vodafone. Lce is another company I will never deal with. Yeh, ive decided to keep the d40 now and invest in decent lenses which...

Ive just read what you have said again, ttl for would be to exspensive because I think I would need an exspensive flash like the sb-600 800 etc to work as a comander and then buy a second flash for of the camera. Whicj would completely blow the budget out of the water. Really my best option...

Regarding the yn460ii, I dont know alot about this, but do you mean it picks up the flash from the camera which it then copies? Sounds abit basic, another use for the camera will be shooting dh mountain biking, which of course is going to be outside in a dark forrest, so you would recomend a...

:thinking: how is it not? The other 6 or 7 used d40's they have in stock must have been bought for £95 quid which they are selling between £200-£270, just because I wasnt daft enough to sell mine at that price, the other 7 have been ripped off. To add to it further, the salesmen put...

Really, lce are selling the body for £200 and lens for £69 you can find it cheaper else where, but only about £200 so £95 still looks shocking, especially when you consider I was going to buy one of there cameras, it wasnt a cash deal.

Well a trade is out of the question now, ive phoned around a few shops and the most they will give for a perfect camera and lens is £95, there selling it for £270, crooks in my eyes. I can stretch my budget abit more if needed, what do you think of the nissin si622 mark ii, when I was first...

Ive not looked into that lens before, but surely there is a lens of the same quality for cheaper that isnt af-s? and the money saved could be used for upgrading to a d80. Tell me no if im wrong. We've looked at the sb400 but it doesnt really suit our needs, we want something that can be...

Hi people, Ive recently become interested in photography, Im not looking for a exspensive camera, just good quality pictures. The camera is mainly going to be used for creating my girlfriends portfolio (shes a make up artist) so there will be alot of close up detailed shots of models...

Thanks evreyone for the advice the battery seems to be fine now, and ian t, i said how long does it need charging for not i cant use the charger :razz: :lol:, thanks, Liam.
