All, Totally confused by this issue, so if anyone can shed some light and stop losing my sanity i would be very grateful; I have a Nikon d7200 (and a d7000) and have always used with these two a Sigma 70-200 f/2.8 DG HSM EXII lens without any problems. i decided to purchase a 1.4x converter...

Funny you say that, i had a screw missing from the mount, so contacted Sigma, who kindly sent me a set of new screws, the screw will not 'screw' all the way in, sits proud by about 2-3mm. Its no the screw as tried in a different hole, so tried rotating the screws - all the same.

I have a strange issue with my Sigma 70-200mm f2.8 (nonOS) HSM II lens, the lens works fine on my D7200, but recently i purchased a 1.4x converter for a bit more reach for when i went to Fairford airshow. when i put the two together and mount on the camera body i get a F0 error, uhmm - so the...

Very Q question, and sorry if already posted elsewhere but 547 pages is a lot to search ? :) Is the Sigma 70-200mm f2.8 HSM II DG lens compatible with the D750 (will work just as it does, maybe better, as on my D7000) Steve

no problems with my D7000, upgraded from D80 and unbelievable difference. Perhaps the glass used wasn't top stuff ?

I seem to remember some years back, whilst working for Apple, that their was a piece of software that could catalog images from any source, HDD's and CD's - no DVD's back then !, didnt work fantastically, but did work sort off. Now i have about 20 CDS packed with images and its getting a B**...

Hi All, Going to try and sell a few prints at a local school fete; now what i am after, and the only way i can decribe it, is a sort of 'thigh' high stand in the shape of an X in which you can put your all your prints in. I have tried looking on Google for instructions on how to build your...

Hi, Noticed a problem with one of the heads, after the flash fires, the green 'ready' light just flashes and flashes, the only way to get it to be ready is to turn it off a few times. Anybody any ideas? Thanks Steve

Thanks guys, think i will give it a go. Heavy duty Tarp is what i am looking at ; same grade/higher than the stuff used in Curtain Side lorries :-), so should last a while. Thanks for the tip on cleaning, this Forum never fails to surprise in its helpful and friendliness. :-)

Hi guys, Anybody tried "White Tarpaulin" for a floor covering for mobile studio shoots. Apologies if this has been asked else where on here, did have a quick look but nothing concrete :)

Right cant get my head round this; ice hockey static shots set up high - is02500 f3.5 @ 1/320 look good hardly any noise, same setup same light but subjects moving more noise in the image - faces mainly. Now only thing i can think off is that the faces in the static shot are larger and so absorb...

STAF EDIT: Removed illegal trading by another member. Checked and can see a very small -arc looking down front of gun, looking on web it does appear to be the bulb that is dead :'(, whats your turnaround time. Unit is covered under Pro insurance, so just need to check the way they want to play...

D7000 has worked OK on prior to last night without any issues. Wouldn't the test button fire the flash no matter what it was set to?

Went to take some end of game presentations last night and my SB-600 didnt want to play; Fully charged set of batteries been used. Camera wouldnt fire flash, so had to battle on flash free. Tried firing the flash using the 'test' button and the unit makes a 'click' noise but the flash does not...

Have you tried ramping up the iso, this will allow faster shutter speeds at your widest setting and are you shooting from the same spot. At our rink their can be up to a stop's difference from one end of the rink to the other, but not all the time!
