Off topic / What do you want?
« : Февраля 22, 2008, 04:44:01 am »
After seeing SY's thread http://photographicfreedom.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=828.0 about what we want to see on this forum, I clicked on it thinking it was a wish list.  It wasn't, so post your wish list items here and tell a little about it.  Include design software, camera accessories, cameras, anything stock related.  Here's mine:

I recently purchased a K10D and I have an old Vivitar 283 flash that puts out over 500 volts upon fire and a steady 150-250 volts while charging (Canon's hotshoes take a maximum 5-6 volts).

I really want a few Pentax AF540FGZ's, http://www.pentaxslr.com/flashes/flash_540.  They are high-speed wireless (on-camera too) flashes that can be triggered remotely using the built-in on-camera flash.  The nice thing about this is you don't need more than one, like many other remotely-triggered flashes, but you can have as many as you want set up remotely.  Also, I read somewhere, but can't find where, Pentax has four different channels in case someone else is using a Pentax camera near you, they won't set off your flashes when they take a picture.  This would be perfect at a wedding because you wouldn't have to ask the in-laws to stop using their flashes because only the built-in Pentax flash fires all your remote flashes.

Anyway, I don't work for Pentax, even if it sounds like I do, but I'm saving up to buy a couple of these flashes.

Photography / Gray Card Recommendations?
« : Февраля 01, 2008, 04:10:56 am »
I need a gray card, and I don't want to pay a lot of money for it.  Can anyone recommend a good one?  Also what makes a good card good?  I've read about white cards that are 18 percent gray, and I've read about gray cards that reflect 18 percent light.  What does all this mean?  I just want a card (or other recommendation) to set my white balance on my digital camera (K10D).  Thanks for the help.
