Tim Tucker's Photography Blog. My random ramblings on photography and, occasionally, other subjects! Thursday, April 26, 2012. Speedlites vs Studio Flash. I've been using flash a bit more these days, and was wondering whether to replace my pair of old Bowens Monolite 400D's, bought a few years ago secondhand, or whether to expand my Speedlite system. Battery power means location use (I also have SD-8a battery packs for quicker recycling). Why the SB-800, why not a more modern unit? Word of caution: if yo...

The Nikon D7100 is now finding it's way into UK dealers, at the time of writing, Wex. Had it in stock. Note though that they also have D7000 for £642. And Nikon are offering £100 cashback. Giving a net price of £542. That's a great deal. Thursday, March 07, 2013. Have it listed for pre-order at a shade under £2500! Better results with a teleconverto...

Great day at The Photography Show 2014, mainly due to two great talks from Steve McCurry and Joe McNally (for more details see my cross-post here. I think the show's organisers are to be congratulated for offering speakers of this standard and for allowing pre-booking rather than first-come-first-served. Camera Bargain of the Year!

Tim Tucker's Photography Blog. My random ramblings on photography and, occasionally, other subjects! Monday, April 18, 2011. Not Bad For a 40-year Old ;-). Tuesday, April 12, 2011. Just Out of Curiousity. I timed the 30s shutter speed on my D3, and the mirror flips back down after 31.6 or 31.7 seconds, which explains the strange behaviour of the intervalometer. Doesn't explain why 30 seconds isn't 30 seconds though. Monday, April 11, 2011. For now though I am going to concentrate on the D3, as I have an ...

Tim Tucker's Photography Blog. My random ramblings on photography and, occasionally, other subjects! Thursday, September 08, 2011. Nikon D7000 and PC-E Tilt/Shift Lenses. A while back I posted that the D7000 didn't work with PC-E lenses, in fact it was difficult to mount them (and I wasn't alone in this opinion). Now, time for an apology and some humble pie. Yes, they do mount, and yes you can use them, with some caveats. What if you want up/down shift? Certain of avoiding contact between lens and body.

The Hejnar Photo Arca Swiss adapter for the Manfrotto 405/410, of course! Brilliant piece of kit that entirely replaces the quick release platform with an Arca Swiss quick release on the Manfrotto 405/410 geared heads. What's a geared head? Up until now, I've used a Kirk Arca-Swiss style plate on the camera an...
