For anyone who uses a Godox S bracket to mount a Godox AD200 in a softbox, this video by Robert Hall shows an inexpensive modification that will allow about 1/2 stop more light. It uses the reflector part of the Godox AD-S17 which is mounted around the bare bulb to prevent light loss through the...

Today PPA (Professional Photographers of America, a company that offers photography insurance) announced a change in their insurance policy which will be included at no extra charge. The first change is instead of offering depreciated value in the event gear gets damaged, they are offering full...

Scott, do you have a photo of what you're looking for? I'm at a loss to even know what to search for. What does the cap do? This is an eyepiece adapter for the DG-2, but I have no idea if it's what you mean...

I almost missed this sleeping beauty. This duck was hidden at the base of a bush with its colors blending in with the background.

"Bridge(s) or Depth" This month you have a choice between either bridge/bridges or showing depth. Since you can post up to 3 images, you can submit both if you choose. Any type of bridge(s) will do - highway bridge, railroad bridge, footbridge, etc. Depth. Whether you want to use leading...

There was another game this afternoon with older players. Only posting this one but had several that were fine. I spent time talking with a parent so didn't take as many overall as I did yesterday.

Yesterday was the first soccer game. I went with my 70-200mm f/4 VR coupled with my 1.4x TC which is all I wound up using. I also took my 300mm f/4 PF with the 1.7x TC attached but didn't need it. The 70-200mm plus 1.4x TC worked really well. I really wanted images that were closer to the...

I just found out today that one boy's game will be tomorrow and the other boy's game will be Sunday. Was told they don't allow anyone to stand behind the goal posts so will need to position myself at a corner like @BackdoorArts suggested. This should be interesting - there's always a first for...

I wanted to do something for this month's Light challenge, but the sun was still too high in the sky to do it.

I was reading a thread over on the Backcountry Gallery Forums when I came across one talking about cleaning a Z6ii sensor. I will post one of the comments below. Has anyone heard about hot pixel issues with the mirrorless bodies...

Has anyone used Atmospheric Aerosol in an outdoor setting? I know it needs to be backlit for the fog to show up. Any pointers/tips for using it outdoors? I've already searched online for articles and videos. Am just looking for people who have actually used it. I'm thinking of a high school...

I haven't seen the squirrel I dubbed Wilson in over a year. Although I know this isn't him, this one's been around a couple of times. At least it doesn't run off quite so quickly as most other squirrels.

Who else has a favorite March 2021 image? :confused: This is one I took while performing a lens test on my repaired 300mm f/4 PF.

Has anyone ever used or heard of the lighting company named Jinbei? It's a Chinese company that Westcott uses when rebranding some strobes under their own name. In this link, fstoppers compares the Westcott FJ400 to the Godox AD400 Pro. The Westcott comes in with a lower price than the Godox...
