After being stuck at home for more than 10 months, I finally got around to a project I have been putting off for a long time - digitizing and...
I'm curious how solid the Peak Design connectors feel. BlackRapid uses all metal parts, with a metal carabiner on a metal swivel connecting to a...
I really like my BlackRapid Sport strap. I have used it for about 9 years and it's still my favorite, even after trying a few others. The...
I love #1, and kudos for getting the branches in sharp focus!
+1 for using the built-in flash. A slow shutter speed on a tripod only works well for stationary subjects. A wide aperture will help, but f/3.5...
Now that I finished building my new kit, I figured I would summarize what I put together and share some final thoughts. Nikon Z6II with FTZ...
First snowfall of the year. It only wound up being a few inches, but he's been waiting 2 years to go out and play in it. Nikon Z6II with 24-70...

Thanks as always, @JBPhotog, this was very helpful! This did the trick! I left STBY on, as I don't mind it saving a little battery if it sits...
Just when I thought I was done discussing gear, I had to replace my flash trigger after suffering damage from a fall, so here we are again... My...
Here are some additional notes on EyeAF that may be helpful. A recent shoot I did with my family provided a good illustration of both the...
This year's holiday shoot was a little different. Between remote schooling and 2 working parents, time was very limited and I had to get a little...
I wound up going a slightly different route, sticking with a single subject. At 135mm at f/1.8, I had a harder time keeping the subject in focus...
Beautiful photos, and great info! Those are some great rules of thumb to keep in mind for a future shoot. I am a bit envious of that glass,...
If I had them, I would! Working with what I have, I better understand the limitations of my original vision and took it as a lesson learned.
If you skip the plate, can it be collapsed with both layers of diffusion still on? I have an EZ Lock 10x24 softbox I use for a hair light that...
Lol
Looks good, congrats on the new gear! I love my Xplor400s and have been considering picking up a few 24x36 soft boxes for a while as well. Are...
I discovered something pretty frustrating with Z-mount lenses during a shoot this weekend. If I focus on a subject, then switch the lens to...
