ParticipantFor portraiture, I can only recommend looking HARD at the Alien Bees’ ABR-800. With a 30″ Moon Unit on it, it’s frelling awesome for headshots.
And it’s not just a ringlight – it’s a rather nice monolight on its own. I use mine for a lot of stuff. Most of those images have lighting notes. Feel free to look around.

ParticipantJune 11, 2009. There was a string of ’em, and every time I spotted one I didn’t have a chance to shoot it – except this one.
(If you click on the image, you can look at the EXIF data – I keep mine visible for most images as I’m a moderator for the Flickr CLS group and it’s just easier to leave it enabled.)

ParticipantAs much as I would love to take you up on it, I cannot.
I’d have to take a day off work, and I’m going to need all of it in May… for paternity leave.

ParticipantI knew Chihuly would be a popular subject, he has so many interesting pieces! Some are way too busy for my taste, but he does have amazing vision.
I knew there would be a lot of Chihuly this time around… so I didn’t enter any of mine.

ParticipantI’m not aware of such a thing with my xTi, but if it DID have it–it wouldn’t work with a Tamron Lens, I don’t think. But I’ve been through all the settings–never seen anything along those lines.
Weird. I could have sworn the XTi had the microadjustment menu… but I’m not a Canon guy, so what do I know?

ParticipantOn the telephoto, the focus was never quite synced w/my body; I resorted to tick-marking the lens to find that sweet spot where the moon images are crisp and clear (and judging from last night’s shots, I’ll really need to do the same on the Canon brand lens anyway.)
Don’t the Canon bodies have a focus fine-tune adjustment per-lens? My D7000 does…

ParticipantVery! I wonder if it’d work with an SD card…
