    Motorsport lenses

    My Nikon 70-200 f2.8 Mk2 is fantastic on the D500. If I could only take one lens only for virtually everything, this would be the one.

    Silver Projects Pro problem

    I've been using Silver Projects Professional for a few months but it's suddenly stopped working. I'm running version V1.13.02051 on Mac 10.10.2. I haven't done the latest OS X up date as I use Aperture and I'm aware that running the update will cripple this and, until I decide on a suitable...

    Custom White Ballance

    On camera probably. I could set a Speedlight up on a light stand but with people walking about collecting awards it probably wouldn't be wise.

    Custom White Ballance

    Like all things you don't know the answer to this seems like a dumb question but, here goes. I want to set a custom white balance for indoor shooting at an awards lunch. I understand the process of selecting the white ballance but I'll be using flash on the day. When I'm pointing my camera at...

    Beam breaking trigger

    Thanks Chris. This looks the kind of thing I need.

    Beam breaking trigger

    I'd be looking to clamp my spare camera (D300) to a section of Armco and have it triggered when a car (or motorbike) goes through a certain section of the track. Can anyone suggest anything suitable for the job? (The triggering gizmo, not the clamping one. I've got plenty of those already)

    Shutter Speed Help

    Hi Daniel. If you've shot at 2000 (2000th of a second) your shutter is open for a minute amount of time therefor not much light is being let through to your sensor. Although shutter speed priority leaves the camera to select your aperture, the camera will have limitations in certain...

    Photo selection software needed

    I'm struggling to see how any software can differentiate between one red Ferrari and another. I struggle myself on occasions and I've been photographing them for years. However, I'll be happy to be proved wrong. :-)

    Photo selection software needed

    I'll be watching this post like a hawk in case someone comes up with a solution. I run two digital archives for hill climb clubs and part of my job is to submit photos for their event programmes. I use Aperture 3 and I'm currently going through the painful process of Keywording every photo (I...

    CCD Swabs

    I'm thinking I may have to order some from the far East as these were far and away the best I've used.

    CCD Swabs

    The ones I favour are these: http://www.photodepot.SPAM/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=309 Just can't see a UK based supplier

    CCD Swabs

    Is there a UK based suppler of CCD swabs? I bought some off someone who was selling them on Talk Photography a couple of years back and these things are far and away he best sensor swabs I've used but every supplier seems to be based in America, Hong Kong or some other far Eastern based country.

    CCD Swabs

    I bought some CCD sensor cleaning swabs from someone on here a year or so back but I can't recall who. Can anyone steer me in the right direction as they're miles better than any other type I've tried?

    Large camera bags

    I don't think this would the thing for me as I think I'm right in saying that the Retrospective range are all shoulder bags. I hike miles at rally events and hill climbs so a rucksack bag would be more the style I'd be looking at.

    Large camera bags

    Having bought a D3 and hung onto the D300 with grip, I'm now struggling to carry my kit. I shoot motor sport so aside from the two bodies, I usually carry a 300mm f4, an 80-200 f2.8, the hefty 28-70 f2.8 and at least one of my smaller primes. Most ads for show bags a host of small primes...
