  1. <p>Im trying to get these to work together 1 PW on camera 1 on each of the flash. I know ETTL doesn't work!<br>

    I bought the kit on its own with 2 PW's and when I got that it worked on camera with one flash. I bought another PW so I could use then 2nd flash but heres where the problem starts... this doesn't work.</p>

    <p>I tried all the different channels and modes but no joy. Heres the thing the actual pocket wizards are kinda different themselves.. both bought from UK ebay stores but on the side where the on - off button is. The kit has on off on each but the single one has I - O on it.. Don't know if this makes a difference?</p>

    <p>Any ideas?</p>

  2. I suppose it is pretty broad ! But I have got some great replies !

     

    Ill try explain it so you can help me more em.. can you explain settings like white balance, metering modes, AF modes (one shot, AI focus and AI servo) , flash exposure compensation and oh whats the difference between sRGB and adobe RGB.. ? Something to do with photoshop ?

     

    Histograms I have learned about awhile ago before I had a camera that even showed histgrams.. My knowledge of them (from my head) they show the exposure, balance of lightness and darkness in your photo and there never really is a perfect histogram ?!

     

    I have read the manual but it doesnt really go in to great detail hence why I asked here !

     

    I am getting a tripod with whatever money I may get over christmas :) lol

     

    Thanks for the replies so far..

  3. Several months ago I posted about getting a canon 350 D and now I

    have finally got one and am loving every minute of playing with this

    camera :) My question is could some one give me some advice and tips

    for this camera mainly when shooting lanscapes, animals, portraits

    (just mainly my friends nothing special) and skateboarding.

     

    I have the kit lens and I will not be upgrading for several months

    to a new lens (17 and im now broke lol) When I can afford it I will

    probably buy the Canon EF-S 17-85 mm

     

    Any advice would be great thanks !

  4. Ok I need to know a few things I asked before and just want to learn

    another few things from ye guys ok..

     

    I have the monitor... got it for free out school :)

     

    Now I need a video card and I'm reading that I need one that is

    compatiable with my motherboard now I dont know how to find that out

    any suggestions ?

     

    Also suggestions on video cards should I go for one of those dual

    ones or can I buy a seperate one and just install it beneath the one

    I have now ?

     

    I might have more questions as I get replys but any help would be

    great thanks..

  5. Im just curious would there be any significant difference in holding

    the 350 D without the lense and with the lense ?

     

    I was reading posts saying make sure it feels good and fits in your

    hand so I went to down to the camera store this morning and asked

    could I hold it to see if it fits my hands (but there was no lense)

    and it felt kinda awkward. Im just wondering does that make a

    difference ?

  6. Id say its been asked before but.. I was wondering if ye guys could

    tell me basically everything on how to make one of those pinhole

    cameras that you can make from shoe boxes and film ?

     

    If its too much bother to type it all out a link would be equally

    helpful, but 1st hand experience would be handy also !

     

    Also a couple of questions: are they easy to make ? What kind of

    film can I use could I use normal 35 mm film for normal film

    cameras ? How would I go about developing the negatives (if I get it

    to work) would it be possible to do it myself or would that be just

    way too hard ?

     

    I apologize if the way I talk about film is wrong ive had no

    experience and little knowledge of film, I thought to myself tonight

    this would a fun place to start !
