    Just had Professional Photographs Taken, ADVICE DESPERATELY NEEDED!!

    The value of product = value of what customer is willing to pay. If pro gets higher price then price is correct, if he doesnt he goes bankrupt. Market value. Simple.

    Hahnel Triad 40 Lite holds more than Giottos. I know it hold 50d 70-200L. Its not upto giottos or manfrotto quality but it does job. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Hahnel-Triad-40-Professional-Aluminium/dp/B0046EDM1U/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1360534426&sr=1-1

    Slow Shutter Speed Waterfall Techniques

    depends on speed of water, light and proximity to subject. take a few test shots f11, f16 f22 etc without nd see if its effect you want without filter. If its not try with filter. Best advice practice and take a cloth or 2. Cover nd between shots

    hdr where to start

    not sure if it changed much from CS5. CS5 is probably most natural of most of HDR programs. depends on effect you want reallistic to baked HDR. Baked natural can both be done in Photomatrix. Earlier verson of photomatrix and pro version give slightly different tones.
