<p>I'm looking for a double camera strap, I'm looking at the Holdfast (non leather) and the black rapid. The Hold fast has a 2nd security hook up to the camera which I like. Wondering about other people's opinions<br /> http://www.bhphotovideo.com/bnh/controller/home?O=&sku=645448&gclid=CIaUwvONy80CFUpahgodu58N-Q&Q=&ap=y&m=Y&c3api=1876%2C92051677682%2C&is=REG&A=details<br /> http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1180726-REG/holdfast_gear_cs01_bk_money_maker_two_camera_swagg.html</p> <p>Thanks,<br /> Dave</p>

Yes I did find out it would work with the WT5 transmitter, the UT-1 is $1000 dollars. Probably the nicest Nikon body I've held lately would be the D500 but I don't want the crop sensor.

<p>I like how my 750 handles mixed lighting and higher ISOs, I think it's better than the D4. I think the D4s should be closer to the 750, is that true?</p>

<p>Thank you Shun, About 80% of what I shoot is wirelessly (WT5) transferred to a laptop for the art director to review. Not sure if the 810 uses the WT5. I have not ever needed the huge file sizes.</p>

Take a look at my website to see what I shoot - debalkophoto.com. Not too much sports. I have a few photo friends that are holding off on the D5 but I held off on D4s, I'm being told the DR of the D4s is better at lower ISOs than the D5. I shoot with the WT5 a lot, the D4s would fit that making the D4 a good backup. I also have a 750 and all the nikon pro lenses

<p>I currently shoot with a D4 and I am very happy with, I can move up to the D5 or purchase a gently used D4s with around 14,000 actuations and save around $2500 dollars. I shoot about 80% at lower ISOs and 20% at higher ISOs. so the decision is D5 or D4s, I would appreciate any opinions<br />Dave</p>

<p>Thanks Craig as well, a video job I took for the end of the month is a violinist playing in a hospital lobby. Not sure I will be able to plug is easily to power so I thought one LED light balanced with the existing light would do the job. </p>

<p>thanks Ralph, your post was very helpful. I've heard good reviews of Came-tv lights http://www.came-tv.com/batteries-508-led-video-light-panel-studio-film-light-p-250.html have you any experience with them?</p>

<p>I am a still photographer that is starting to shoot some video with my DSLR, I am looking for a reasonably priced LED light. Working off a nicad battery is a plus and being able to change color temp is also a plus, gel filters would work. - I saw this on B&H <a href="http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/996875-REG/genaray_sp_e_240d_spectroled_essential_240_daylight.html" target="_blank">http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/996875-REG/genaray_sp_e_240d_spectroled_essential_240_daylight.html</a><br />I would like to hear someone's opinion that has experience with LED lights<br />Thanks<br />Dave</p>

<p>The 2nd photo in on my homepage is shot backstage with the Nikon 35mm 1.8, very dim FLUORESCENT lighting.<br> www.debalkophoto.com</p>

<p>I shot a test this morning, 35mm 1.8 vs 24-70 2.8 set at 35mm, tripod, various apertures, at 2.8 the straight 35mm is sharper on the edges, </p>

<p>Thanks for all the great responses, one review I read actually said the Nikon 35 1.8 was sharper than the Nikon 35mm 1.4 and the 1.4 is very overpriced, so I never considered the Nikon. The store did say they would take back the Nikon 35 1.8 applying the $ to the Sigma. </p>

<p>I am shooting with a Nikon D4, D3 and 750, I am looking for a light alternative to the 24-70 and I purchased a Nikon 35mm 1.8 FX lens, I like it but I wonder if I should have gotten the Sigma 35 1.4, its only a few hundred dollars more, and still a lighter option than the 24-70. I will use it for shooting mainly indoors in dim light. 2 important things to me are reliable focus and a light lens to carry and of corse quality photos. thanks</p>

<p>I am not a big fan of slow zooms, I like my 24-70 2.8 but it is heavy, I've been using straight lenses- a 35mm 1.8 on camera with a 50 1.4 and a 85 1.4 in my bag.</p>
