@Mark twiglet Great!!! I am already happy :]

@Mark twiglet : Nice shot - are there any limitations to get very close to the track for a normal spectator?

@Paul Holtom those pictures are really great? As i Can see - your photos were taken quite close to the track - have you had special photo pass or you were just a spectator? Is the Saturday ok day to walk and admire the festival for the first time?

Hi! For the first time i would be at the Goodwood FOS - Saturday without grandstands - so only walking - what kind of lens I should buy to reach the cars on the track (is it possible)? As a standart lens I am planning to use my Tokina 11-16.

Currentlu Tokina 11-16 99% of time two reasons: - i like superwide perspective - i am really afraid about dusted sensor :]

@lightshipman I have standart 100mm holder and recently bought BigStopper beacuse i had enough the high magenta color cast in weird tones. The problem is - that Bigstopper with gasket is much thicker than first slot in holder (this one with extra spacers) so what i had to do was to sacrifice one...

@chrism_scotland - I can recommend U Jezulatka - as a Hotel - very small boutique hotel - but it is just next to the Charles Bridge on the Castle Side. For all: In prague what I can recommend - Visit Zlata Strana (near Hradcany - its a Prague Castle territory) Old Town on both sides of Veltava...

Dave. I have the same system as you. The big stopper is quite stiff in first extended slot. So what I did I reused one filter spring slot inverted it and used as a spacer. Do you think this is good? Otherwise I had feeling that I'll brake bigstopper while pushing it into slot.

Hi, I have Hitech Holder with 77UWA ring (which i bought recently here on forum) and i have two questions: - Does the Bigstopper fit into Hitech Holder - Is it normal - that UWA 77 Ring sits quite stiff inside the holder?

Hi! Recently I was watching how to make portable (hot shoe mounted or camera bolt) ringlight battery powered. So without thinking i Bought on amazon 20 pcs of 10W LED chips and 10 aa battery case. Is it built quite easily a ringlight which can be AA battery powered? My electrician friend says -...

I did it. You can see it at the beginning of the short film

The AF in Tokina 11-16 is randomly choosing Focus point length on the scale. It means that lens is focusing in front or behind the object. It's not happening during live view, where the camera and lens has got always 100% accuracy. Where is the fault? The Camera is Nikon D7100. I tested this...

Hi, I recently bought a new Tokina 11-16 MKII - and I just wanted to ensure myself - if these issues I have are normal for this lens: Camera: Nikon D7100 First of all - I am not using Live view at all (old habits) - so all the photographs are being taken through viewfinder 1. the picture is more...
