    Picture printed without credit

    So here's what happened. I took a shot of some Christmas Carolers that were performing during an event in my town, which I posted on my social media page. The site that hosts the event contacted me, and asked if they could use the picture for their profile picture. I agreed, and asked only to...

    Some LED colors not accurate

    Here is a shot I took in New York City a few months back. I shoot in JPEG, and only minimal editing. Mostly just cropping, and minimal color correction. The problem is with the traffic light and the don't walk light. They should be red, but clearly they are orange. The other red lights - neon...

    Yungnuo 565EX update

    As previously posted, my 565EX has expired after very light use - only about 200 flashes. I bought this flash in January, and, clearly I've used it very little. I was asked to take pictures at an outdoor event that my company was sponsoring. It was all under tents, so a flash was needed. Flash...

    Yongnuo 565EX dead

    Well, my 565EX took a dump after a few months of very light use. Powers up, but the green light stays on (flash not ready). None of the control buttons work except the power on/off. All I get is at tick tick tick sound after 5 seconds of power on. New batteries. I don't know of any factory reset...

    Slow focus in live view

    I've had my D5100 for just over 1 year. Very happy with this camera, and it suits me well for my experience level. For whatever reason, I always used the live view to frame my shots. It was just something that I had gotten used to. I recently started using the eyepiece, and noticed something...

    A question regarding shutter speed in EXIF here

    I've noticed that when I hover over a picture here to look at the EXIF, the shutter speeds seem to be a little screwy. Sometimes instead of 1/125 or 1/60 etc. it shows as 10/1250 and 10/600. When I look at my picture properties at home, the numbers seem correct. Is this just a glitch in the...

    I thought I was all set with my lenses.

    So I picked up my D5100 just 1 year ago. Love it. This camera does everything that I want, without too many complications. It came with the kit lens, 18 - 55. So then I needed a flash. Yongnuo 565EX fit the bill nicely, and at a great price. Next came the need for more zoom, so I went with the...
