Nathan, what's got into you lately? The 'duh' above is totally unnecessary. You did invite comments, right?

Your image is too dark for my tastes too. Were you experimenting with a different light source? LED light perhaps?

Looks like your first wedding as a 'tog has been a bit of a baptism of fire, but useful lessons can be learned for the subsequent events.

1: Insure your gear against clumsy/drunk wedding guests.
2: Commit your services and prices to a paper agreement so there can be no argument afterwards. Any future orders will be based on this agreement and the prices therein.
3: Always retain copyright, forever.

Hope that helps for the next time.

For this time, as Don says, low-res images + watermark + charge for the SD card and include a written copyright notice.

Superb images. I might as well put the 500mm 1:4.5 away now then

No thanks, it rained here yesterday, well, drizzled really for a couple of hours. Tried it, didn't like it.

Actually I love that part of Wales. I marshalled at many a WRC event in the forests around Cardiff & Swansea, in the freezing weather, horizontal rain, biting wind, snow. Loved it, especially in the pub in the evening before heading onto stage for another long, cold night.

The 'tube' is a bayonet fitting for the D-FA 50 and 100mm Macro lenses. If yours is not a D-FA lens, use one of the adapter rings.

The FAJ 75-300mm is a lens you will soon want to sell on. I'm sure.

The FA 50/1.4 ought to feature here somewhere, surely?
