<p>let's see --- have all the good accessories for my black paint iid -- a scnoo winder, a soft release, a leica level, film trimmer, sports finder, soft release...<br>

still looking for a good case that i can use with the scnoo... </p>

<p>on the m8 when using my canon 28mm, i still put the finder on -- </p>

<p>for the r, i have the photo equip (gmp) grip, the motor drive, and a kit of lenses</p>

<p>yes --- many are useful, some are not</p>

<p>I'm looking to have a good set of lightroom keywords and iptc metadata for use on very specific images -- I shoot hockey matches every week and am looking to up the game on my process with good keywords in lightroom and in the meta fields -- <br>

Does anybody have any good ideas for keywording out a batch of hockey images?<br>

are there any specific iptc metadata fields that are imperative?</p>

<p>This was shot at a pro hockey game Friday night - the team is the columbus cottonmouths, the Goalie is Shannon Szabados.<br>

<p>nikon d3, 80-200/2.8 - exif data preserved</p><div></div>

<p>i may rent that -- lensrentals is just down the street from me and i know everyone there.... </p>

<p>it's 28 degrees here in memphis right now --- wish i could leave today --- </p>

<p>not my first wedding at all, rick --- and i've known the couple for 20+ years --- never said it was my first wedding... first destination wedding, yes.... </p>

<p>it's a little different doing a wedding when you can't put something you might need in your car</p>

<p>no assistant, bride, groom, and their kids --- very small</p>

<p>i believe it will be a beach or pavillion wedding they're paying my way --- don't want to have to carry extra stuff i don't need --- simply because flying sucks nowadays</p>

<p>will be on maui --- also going to do some whale watching, skateboard park, and surf shots...</p>

<p> </p>

<p>small wedding, no backdrops, smaller backup body just in case -- </p>

<p>will be there for a week and will have some time to myself- - ergo the 500 and the fisheye</p>

<p>will probably get a good tamron or tokina to cover super wide - -- </p>

<p>have all my hawaii ebooks regarding tourism and photography --- carrying my galaxy 4 tablet,</p>

<p>not taking my laptop -- carrying plenty of cf cards.... <br>

every ounce counts here</p>

<p>ok going to hawaii in march rather than december... shooting a wedding<br>

gives me a few extra months to configure my kit (plus birthday andd christmas)<br>

I am carrying a d3 with the following lenses:<br />24/2.8 ais<br />16mm 2.8 fisheye<br />28/2.8 af-d<br />50/1.4 af-d<br />80-200/2.8 af-d<br />500mm mirror w/ 2x teleconverter</p>

<p>leaving the 60mm micro/ring flash at home<br>

am thinking i want to get a good super wide or 28-80/2.8 any thoughts on anything i need for my kit (including accessories for the d3?)</p>

<p>the short and plain is.... nothing is right on this camera -- even at first glance, it's an obvious zorki - </p>

<p>worth about $100usd - hope you did not pay more - </p>

<p>a few from the nikon d3 this past weekend</p>

<p> </p>

<p>ok, the working space is a gym - horrible lighting.... shooting fast moving, full contact sports event, using an 80-200/2.8 at 2.8<br>

I've got 2 sb-26 speedlights and a sb-80dx speedlight --- i know they can all be triggered in unison , i'm just trying to figure out the best way to arrange these and set them up -- i know the d3 won't let me ttl with these, but they should still be able to be used...</p>

<p>do i:<br>

mount the three of them in various places around the arena and have a wireless mount rigged to the hotshoe of one of them which would trigger the other two?<br>

mount one on camera and position the other two in spots where i tend to have the lens aimed?<br>

rear sync or normal?<br>

I'm rusty on flash use and have never used a multiple rig<br>

also, what is the max range that i can space them and still have them set each other off?<br>

and what settings should i use for each flash unit?<br>

i have one with a clip that can be hooked to a silver umbrella - one of my buddies says skip the umbrella, the 3 flashes should light the gym up properly.... yes or no?<br>

worst come to worst, I can shoot with no flash and high iso and still get workable images -- just looking to do something different</p>

<p>i guess this may be one of the thornier questions today</p>

Thanks, Jeff...

Cool- the client is my

It's market dependent. The

is the it neighborhood, I

have nothing but time.

I am checking to see if I

should shoot the hdr when

doing the house....

I have to photograph a $500,000/3500 square ft

home that will be going on the market soon..

Is hdr still used for this kind of work?

I was figuring to use 28mm dirty most of the

scenic and other lenses for details.

Just seeing if I should do some high end hdr for

the presentation... Or speedlight...

If you use hdr, how many images do you stack?
