Free lensing. You don't attach the lens to the camera. Takes a bit of practise but has the advantage of being able to use any lens you like. No adapter required.pschlute wrote:

I have a MyLightMeter app on my iphone. Like any light meter app it makes use of the phone's camera's light meter and just gives you the numbers. For most "identical" scenes it seems to do the job correctly.
Handy if you occasionally use an old camera without a meter and don't want the expense of a new meter.

Lovely. They have not been so noticeable this year in our garden.
I fear the foxes may have cold paws this winter

First thing I do with a new camera is to change the AF points setting to central 9.
i want to be in charge of focussing, not allow the camera to use a blunderbuss approach.
Us the new camera with modern lenses and it will be lightening fast to achieve focus and track it. You have some quality lenses in your kit list, but they wont be the fastest at AF

Yes +1 to that. I knew nothing about flash until I read Nigel's guides and asked him a ton of questions on here.Where's Nigel (McGregNi) when you need him?

Excellent, thanks all, so I need minimum 2 X Cactus V6II triggers
Radio triggers will be more flexible than optical triggering as I explained above. You will need two.Excellent, thanks all, so I need minimum 2 X Cactus V6II triggers
I use Cactus but others swear by other systems.

I much prefer this 2nd attempt from the same location, the sky is great!
Have you thought about a pano of the lower centre part to really focus the eye at the water, clouds etc?
