    Reliable Focusing

    So I've been roped into doing some video work for a friends band in the studio and I'm wanting to know peoples experience of focusing and how best to go about it. I'll be using an on camera mic, managed to get a Rode Videomic so that's cool. I'm guessing autofocus is out of the question right...

    atr-6550 or videomic go?

    I've been asked to film a friends band for a studio documentary and unfortunately I'm on a shoe string budget. Ideally I'd have liked to have got an interface to power some of my studio mics, but that works out grossly expensive!!! So, I think it's a toss up between the Audio Technica ATR-6550...

    Teleconverter Suggestions

    I'm looking at getting a cheap teleconverter for my partners mum as she is complaining that her 18-200mm tamron won't go in close enough. What's cheap and will work with auto focus?

    Xlr options

    I'm wondering what is out there? The cheaper the better as it's for me to mess about with more than anything. I have some nice mics that I'd love to have hooked up to my dslr, but there are very few interfaces that I can find for xlr into the body. Any ideas?

    So I'm helping a friend who is redoing one of our local football teams website, and I've been tasked with recreating this image with one of their members wearing the team shirt. The background is fine, I have access to some stock images that would be suitable. My main question is lighting...

    Upgrading?

    I'm thinking about upgrading from my trusty d5100, the only thing is I'm kind of at a loss as to where to go. I would love to go full frame and splash out on a d610 but that would basically render my current lenses obsolite as I'd have to be shooting in crop mode :/ So yeah, with lenses on top...

    Yongnuo Slave Mode Indicator

    I've got the Yongnuo 560iii. It's a great flash, especially for the money. But how the HELL do you turn that annoying red flashing light on the front off when in slave mode?!!!

    My new website :)

    All done with my trusty D5100 :) Still amazed at how far I can push this little thing. The time is near that I need to upgrade to a full frame, but for now, it's all about my D5100 :P www.vinnydude.co.uk

    AF Assist Lamp?

    This is going to probably be a very short thread! :P I've been doing a bit of nightclub photography for a friend who was hosting a night, I've been getting some great results but I have the odd occasion where my camera struggles to focus. I would use the AF Illuminator built into the camera...

    Low Light Focusing

    I've been doing some shots for a local rock night on my d5100 + sigma 17-50mm f2.8. I have just been messing around with my setup trying to get the most reliable correct autofocus in low light and have just noticed something very odd and wondered if someone of you guys can check it for me :)...
