  1. I was wondering what, in your experience, has proven to be the best place to go

    to get a domain name and set up a website/online portfolio. I am looking for a

    place to put up my concert photography photos. I don't really make money with

    photography at this point so I can't afford anything super pricey. Any Advice

    will be helpful. Thanks.

  2. I just picked up a working Quantaray QTA 85 hotshoe flash and was wondering if

    anyone has used one before. I have searched Google with to no avail for info on

    this flash. I was also wondering if it was safe to use on my Canon XTi. It looks

    a lot like my Vivitar 283 and seems just as old. So I'm guessing not.... Any

    info would be helpful.

  3. Ok, so I picked up a cheap flash at the thrift store branded "Kinetic". I'm

    sure it is nothing near spectacular. I was just wondering if anyone was familiar

    with the Kinetic brand and if it would be safe to use on my Rebel 2000, for

    experimental purposes. Thanks.

  4. OK, so i figured out this has to do with the meter coupler....but I have a MC Rokkor 58mm f/1.4 which has a rectangular pole going towards he camera body when mounted. How is this supposed to "Couple" with the camera? I've seached all over the web and nothing explains this. I am quite puzzled. If anyone could post a picture of how these are "coupled" or an explanation it would be great.
  5. So, I found a replacement battery and the Meter is functioning now, but I was

    wondering if the f-stop should change the placement of the circular arm? The

    circle moves when I change ISO and shutter speed. I don't see how the f-stop on

    the lens can move anything mechanically on the camera.... If there is any site

    that explains how to use the meter It would be much appreciated. Thanks.

  6. I just came into the possesion of a Minolta SRT101 and want to make sure it

    functions properly before investing in Wein cells or adapters. If the voltage of

    a hearing aid battery is +.15 volts what adjustments would be most common to

    compensate for this change in current? Should I change the selected ISO or

    adjust shutter speed? Should I just experiment with different settings and take

    notes? Are there any "better" hearing aid batteries to use than others? Any

    advice would be much appreciated. Thanks

  7. Ok,

    Well I happended tocome across some enlargers for a steal, and I was wondeirng

    if it was worth for me to hold onto them or to just try and sell them and see

    what comes if it. They are an old Omega B22 and a more recent Omega C-700. The

    C-700 come with a negative carrier and another glass shield. I am a beginner,

    just out of college and primarily a musician, who is pursuing photography as a

    hobby. I was toying with the idea of starting my own darkroom, but I would need

    to find a condenser lense for one of the enlargers and all necessary equipment.

    So the question is do I sell the enlargers? can i sell them? Should I just

    continue with using film and get them developed until I'm ready for a digital?

    There probably aren't any solid answers, but ideas will help. Thanks.
