cheeshyan94: Nice shot!

blowsh: Good moment! You could crop the bottom part though.

signither: No, not wiggle stereoscopy. You can then combine the images in StereoPhotoMaker (it also opens *.MPO files.)

readone_sapi: I think around RM3xxx.

kysham: I've tried the xRite ColorChecker Passport - it neutralizes color densities. So a muted dark green of a Fujifilm box or the orange of a Kodak box, does not become flourescent (it does on most brand cameras, but the Canon 1D MkIII's flourescence is less.)

You take a picture of the ColorChecker and run it through the program, which makes an Adobe color profile. Then you choose to process your RAW files using this new color profile.

It seems to do a good job of making color output from different cameras match, but you must be meticulous when setting the black, white and grey point. It can be still rather inconsistent, and if you want to do it properly, your monitor, lights and printer must be calibrated as well.

MechaHerc, check out their website: www.digitalimageflow.com

The card basically acts as a reference to process your photos to get better color accuracy. The company also provides an Adobe script that can be used in conjunction with their color checker card to provide Adobe Photoshop with a specific color profile for your camera.

Bellows increase the distance between the lens and the sensor (like a souped up version of an extension tube!) Something like what those really really old cameras have in front of their lenses. (correct me if I'm wrong) *newbie here*

hi there, well, yongnuo YN460 II is a good flash. At least for me. Never had problem from it.

I used both Mark I and Mark II , based on my personal experience, YN460 II is just the same as YN 460 I
Just that the optical flash sensor for the former is behind the red plastic and the latter one is in the flash head.
Although the GN number increase, but I see not much difference in the flash power

There is no red AF assist lamp. The red plastic is just for cosmetic.

Another strong point is the wireless function smile.gif
Works very well with sony alpha wireless flash

That's all I can say smile.gif
I got the YN 460 I, do pm me if u want
