<p>On my 283, with ISO 400 the yellow setting is f/5.6. That's good for the foreground. The background is lit by the ambient light, not the flash and will go very dark if you are using a relatively fast shutter speed. With most contemporary cameras the fastest shutter speed, the x-sync speed, limits you to (usually) 1/250 sec, but on the other end, nothing prevents you from shooting at 1/15th sec or 1/8th sec and adding plenty of ambient light to the image.</p> <p>Henry Posner<br /><strong>B&H Photo-Video</strong></p>

<p>For outdoor portraits, especially in shade, I will use a reflector, on-camera flash (at -1) or off-camera flash in an umbrella or softbox 95+% of the time.</p> <p>Henry Posner<br /><strong>B&H Photo-Video</strong></p>

<p>Nikon Auto Nikkor-S 1:2 f=5cm (50mm) standard lens.

<p>I've used the Manfrotto rail system for lights. It's expensive, requires some competence to install and IMO is not suitable for a camera. YMMV. I agree with the others who suggest you consider a <a href="http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/buy/Camera-Stands/ci/415/N/4075788761">camera stand</a>.</p> <p>Henry Posner<br /><strong>B&H photo-Video</strong></p>

<p>If your lenses are Minolta AF (a/k/a Maxxum) lenses, you may be able to use an adapter from Sony A-mount lenses to Canon EOS body.<br> If you have manual focus Minolta MD lenses, there are 2 adapters from Fotodiox which B&H sells.

<blockquote> <p>Tamron 18-200 Zoom lens Don't get me wrong the lens isn't bad per se, but it's not really sharp or fast enough for portraiture</p> </blockquote> <p>Just to take the contrarian point of view, I did portraiture for decades. 90% of the time in a studio using a sturdy tripod and multiple strobes. The lens' max aperture was of almost no consequence at all, and a little lens softness, or the judicious use of soft focus filters, decreased retouching costs and made the mother of the bride look 10 years younger, which in turn made me out to be a hero. Just sayin'</p> <p>Henry Posner<br /><strong>B&H Photo-Video</strong></p>

<p>I just traded a mint condition Apple iPhone 4s and original version iPad Mini, both in mint-condition boxes at my local Apple store. The person who took the trade-ins didn't care one whit about the boxes. All he wanted to know was if they worked and if the screens were undamaged.</p> <p>Henry Posner<br /><strong>B&H Photo-Video</strong></p>

<p>They say, "Having a square back will be nice as you don't need to rotate it, and quite a few people like the square format. A cropping option will allow you to crop to 4x5 or 5x4." Makes sense to me. The venerable Mamiya RB67 is actually a 7x7 camera that takes a 6x7 back you can use vertically or horizontally by rotating the back, not the camera. Ideal for tripod work IMO.</p> <p>Henry Posner<br /><strong>B&H Photo-Video</strong></p>

<p>The 550D is the EOS Rebel T2i in the USA. Canon has three 18-135 options for you:<br> Canon EF-S 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS Lens MFR # 3558B002 <br />Canon EF-S 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS STM Lens MFR # 6097B002 <br />Canon EF-S 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM Lens MFR # 1276C002<br> STM = STM designation (Stepping Motor) gives smooth and quiet auto-focus that is ideal for shooting video with the Movie Servo AF feature. If you're not going to be shooting video primarily it's not necessary and offhand I'm not sure your T2i has the Movie Servo AF feature.<br> For the other two the pries are approx US $ 500.00 and 600.00. I'm partial to USM, but if the purchase price is an issue IMO it's not necessarily a deal-breaker. </p> <p>Henry Posner<br /><strong>B&H Photo-Video</strong></p>

<p>Other than Pentax, no one made or makes lenses for your system. <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pentax_6%C3%977#List_of_lenses">Here's a list of all of them</a>.

<p>The Nikon motor drive for the FM2n is the <a href="http://mir.com.my/rb/photography/hardwares/classics/nikonfeseries/fefmshared/md12/">Nikon MD12</a>, capable of 3.5 fps. I use them with all my FM2n bodies, my mainstay 35mm camera for the last decade I shot professionally. I shot all sorts of news ans sports stuff with this combo for years using only non-zoom lenses.</p> <p>The secret to capturing any action is the same with this system as with any other -- know the event, prefocus where the peak action will be, precompose, and then learn to anticipate that peak of action. In pole-vaulting, for instance, prefocusing on the bar is simple. Same for hurdles. For other sprints start by capturing the finish, where you can prefocus on the finish line.</p> <p>Henry Posner<br /><strong>B&H Photo-Video</strong></p>
