I know this is an ancient thread, but I wanted to thank puddleduck for this answer. I was having kittens thinking I was going to have to send my D700 into Nikon for repair (which would cost a fortune as it's out of warranty), but this simple answer fixed it. Thank you!! :D

Ooh, thanks! :)

Looking for a bit of advice really. Being as I live on the course of the London marathon (just by Tower Bridge), I've decided to go down tomorrow and get some photo's of the elite runners and hopefully a few celebs (although it's more the elite runners I'm interested in). Anyway, I was just...

Thanks guys! Very informative. I think I'll invest in a shoot through brolly too (like you say Garry, they're so cheap). To be honest, when I bought this one, I hadn't really researched it at all....

Thanks. :) Yup, it's a silver umbrella. I actually quite like them but being as I hadn't seen them before I didn't know if they were ok or not, lol. I'll give it a go in pp and see what I can come up with. Otherwise, I'll just leave them as is. Thank you. :)

Congrats, they are some awesome images! :D

This exactly. :)

Aww, I love Ken Rockwell. (Yes, I'm a Nikon user). He's great! Normally makes me laugh and I take everything he says with a pinch of salt but if you're bored and want entertaining for a bit, he's your man. :p

Cheers guys. :) Just realised I already know two members here from other forums. (And one of them had nothing to do with photography, small world!) Anyway, will get round to posting some pics for cc v. shortly I hope! And thanks Craig! :D

Doesn't work for me either and I know for a fact that some of my images are being used on more that one site..........ho hum.....

Hey all, my real name is Jayne, I have a Nikon D700 and D90. Um....yeah. I love taking photo's and have just gone into business (scary!) so hope to chat and share photo's with you all. :)
