<p>I use mine on a D80 and have had no problems with it.</p>

<p>Jeff, print at 1440 dpi. I print on VFA all the time and have never had the problem you describe at 1440. I've tried 2880 dpi and there is no difference in print quality, just in the amount of ink that gets deposited (and really sloooow print times).</p>

<p>I use mine with a D80 w/ battery grip and a 70-200 f 2.8 (no flash on it though) and I find it to be very stable.</p>

<p>I've had the same problem with my D80; switched to a Lens Pen <a href="http://www.lenspen.com/403/377/" target="_blank">SensorKlear pen</a> with better results.</p>

<p>I posted the contents of the installation CD on my website as a <a href="http://simon27.com/epson2200/" target="_blank">downloadable ZIP file</a> . Download and then unzip the file to a new folder and run EPSON.EXE to start the process.</p>

<p>You can also batch register a group of images for $45. There is more info at the copyright office's <a href="http://www.copyright.gov/" target="_blank">website</a> (http://www.copyright.gov/).</p>

<p>I use an old LowePro backpack (nature trekker) to carry my stuff when I'm shooting surf from the shore/shallows. It's not the easiest solution if you plan on changing lenses often - big pockets come in handy for that.<br>

<p>Calumet's own line of tripods are very solid (heavy!) and affordable. I've been using/abusing a CK7500 for about 3 years now and it's still in great shape. Their tripods start at $65 and are definitely worth considering.</p>

<p>Calibrating the monitor is a definite necessity.</p>

<p>You can create a virtual copy of the image (right click on it in Library mode) and then Reset it in Develop mode to get back to the original file.</p>

<p>Doh! Good catch Shun. :-)</p>

<p>Agree. On my older (Tokina) lenses the little locking switch never works and the aperture ring is constantly getting moved around when I put the lenses in or take them out of the camera bag.</p>

<p>There's a broken SPAN tag at the top of the original post causing the strikethrough effect.</p>

<p>I had one of those for a while but I don't recall any specific procedure for changing the head besides unscrewing it. Take a look at the bottom of the head - there may be a locking set screw.</p>

<p>thanks for the heads-up.</p>

Looking through the wedding gallery I think that images #2,3,8 and 11 are ok as they are. As to the rest:
<br><br>
#1) too low-res and too many extraneous people - try cropping down to the bride, her father and the boy<br>
#4) too low-res also and slightly overexposed<br>
#5) not sure there's any need for this image<br>
#6) ok, maybe a touch overexposed<br>
#7) good shot but the reflections in the window are distracting - lose it<br>
#9) she looks like she's reading a contract - not sure you want it in there<br>
#10) crop out the pillar - it draws the eye away from the happy couple<br>
#12) overexposed<br>
#13) overexposed<br>
<br><br>
I like the site and think that with a little more post-processing and some tighter cropping you'll be fine.

Do you mean <a href="http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/174590-REG/Morris_11135_Suction_Cup.html" target="_blank">this</a>? There are other similar products at B&H if you search under "suction cup".

I've found <a href="http://www.zenfolio.com" target="_blank">Zenfolio</a> to be pretty good. The premium
($100/yr) plan lets you set your own prices for photos. My customers are very happy with the quality and speed of
their orders.

turn the command dial to increase your shutter speed. the bulb setting is what you get if you go past a 30-second shutter speed.

The PW's do come with a short miniphone to PC cord, about a foot long.

1a. Register the name with your local government, probably on the county level - over here we register DBA's with Nassau County and pay a small fee.
1b/2. I use godaddy.com for all my website stuff - registering the names and hosting. They usually have some kind of special going on (get hosting and the name is $1.99 kind of stuff) and the service is fine. Hosting costs around $47/year when paid annually instead of monthly.
3. Your personal preference.
4. You have to use JPEGs in SRGB mode. Anything else may not work at all and may take too long to load (people will navigate away from slow-loading pages).
5. Can't help you with this one.

Looking for compact digital camera with Intervalometer - TimeLapse

I recently bought a Nikon Coolpix P6000 just for that feature. It shoots intervals from 30 seconds and up.
