Thanks, I'll keep all that in mind. One last thing, how do you decide on your exposures? How do you decide the darkest and brightest, and how far apart they should be? Are there any rules for this?

Thanks for all the advice/opinions. Actually I think I just worked out the problem with lightroom, as I was always using the shortcut I think it had no previous settings to go by and got confused but I now tried with the drop down menus and it worked fine! Result was pretty nice as well, very...

Well the one time I tried doing it in light room it took so long to load I gave up waiting after about 5 minutes (I do have a pretty slow computer), in photomatix it usually loads in around 60 seconds. Maybe I'll give it another try.. But I actually thought the problem might be more regarding...

Sorry I didn't quite understand your reply... Are you saying that I should have only used 2 exposures? I'm not an expert in HDR, or fully understand how it works to be honest so excuse correct me if anything I say may be wrong but... To get details in the window/lamp and in the shadows the...

This is kind of about the whole process rather than just the editing but I guess this will be the best forum for this... I shoot a lot of interiors, and often use HDR techniques to bring a more dynamic range as well as add depth and contrast to the image. The problem is... Every single time I...

Thanks for both the replies :) Well she was a bit close but to soo much, I'd say 2 meters from the background but my room is only 4-5 meters long so that's about as far as I can go :/ Another time I had to take a white background in a room even half this size though! That was a nightmare...

I do quite a lot of white backgrounds but somehow still feel like I am struggling with them... I don't have enough lights to put 1 each side so usually put just 1 speedlight in the center with a diffusion dome on it to spread the light out, I know it is not ideal but it's what I have to work...

Does anyone know how hard would it be to DIY repair a misaligned element?

Already tried that, they dont reply and it wasnt paid for by paypal so I am stuck with it.

I recently got a used Tamron 28-75 off ebay, it focuses fine at 28mm, but the further I zoom in the more it misses by. And by 75mm it is back focusing by a huge amount, more than my Nikon D610 can even fine tune (+20 lens correct AND +20 default correct still misses focus). Of course on live...
