Nikon CLS Demonstration Video

radmin — Fri, 18 Jun 2010 02:24:29 +0000

A simple and nice example of using the Nikon flash system. One remote flash that is fired by the camera's on-board system. In macro photography like this it is important to note that the main on-board camera flash is not contributing to the exposure, it is only triggering the flash. Otherwise the on-board will cause reflections and glare that a remote flash wont. On my Sony A700 this is a problem because you can't turn off the on-camera flash. So a trick I used was to tape a piece of exposed film over the flash. This way the signal light could still trigger the remote flash while not contributing to the overall exposure. (if you do this make sure the camera is set to wireless mode or you will melt the film to your on-camera flash... not ideal). Obviously the Nikon system is better. A quick demonstration using Nikon's CLS with SB-800's and a Nikon D200 ...

This video demonstrates the basic hands-on demonstration on Nikon's new professional-grade speedlight of SB-900. Check prices on the Nikon ...

Hitler Rants About D3x

The Spider — Sun, 02 May 2010 01:06:51 +0000

***THE ORIGINAL!!*** Hitler is raving mad at Nikon, and lets his cohorts know about it! I authored this piece; don't be fooled by others posting my work!! Sorry about the fading subtitles, iMovie isn't very flexible with them. Just pause it to read if they pass by too fast..enjoy! Parodied under fair use law. Thanks everyone for making this a worldwide success so far! I wrote the entire script myself during the week after the D3x was announced. I myself am a D3 shooter and of course would love to have a D3x, but will NOT be an early adopter. Ken, keep doing what you're doing! ...
