View attachment 463736 I don’t eat Yank produced meat

Freda from Customer Service put in a lot of effort to help me when I lost the chargers to some lights (not listed as spares ) and was able to sell me the parts I needed. Great after sales service

Thank you both for your help.

I no longer have my D700 so MPB have D780 and D850 at a price that is affordable and not much difference. Use mostly studio and Landscape, will the FX lenses I have be good enough to show the difference , Tamron SP 24-70mm f/2.8 Di VC USD G2 and Nikon AF-S Nikkor 70-200mm f/2.8G IF-ED VR. Plus...

The Mac is about 2 years old at most and I was run window 7 64 bit so I would think the ssd would be FAT 32

Thank for the help I have big learning curve I have not even turn the mac on yet, can the mac read my external ssd? At the moment I am using lightroom and cs6 but will be looking for options.

I have been given a fairly new Mac, all my images (about 3000) are on my old PC (windows 7) how do I move my image, mostly DN. I would be grateful for any help.

If plusgas doesn’t work try coke. No I am not joking, 50 years of engineering and I have never found anything better for freeing seized screws (clean well after)

For the last few years my go to lens has been Tamron24-70mm f2,8 sp vc on ad7000, an accident ripped off the lens mount. The insurers are going to pay me £700. I love the tamron( may be a bit over kill on a crop) but instead of replacing it I could get a sigma-17-70mm-f28-4-dc-macro-os-hsm and...

Thanks Phil

I have 3 sb900s and I have devised a rig to hold 6 Speedlight’s in a circle. I don’t think it will be enough to overpower the sun but maybe give it a good run for its money. Now I need 3 dumb flashes with s1 and s2 settings with as little cost as possible as it is just playing with the idea. So...
