  1. I've got the Nikon Z6II and the Nikkor 8-15. It works very well with the FTZ. No problems. Add the Kenko 1.4 and make sure you get the right version. I've got two DG and DGX Nikon Z6III + FTZ + Nikkor 8-15mm + "N-AF 1.4X TELEPLUS PRO 300 DGX Kenko" will not focus or find an aperture Nikon Z6III + FTZ + Nikkor 8-15mm + "1.4 TELEPLUS PRO 300 KENKO N-AF DG" works fine, will AF and finds the aperture
  2. David. I'm pretty sure the Nikkor 10.5 DX lens has the same problem as the Tokina: it won't work on the FTZ.

  6. This is horrendous and raises so many questions about the operator.

  9. I’m going to Boot so will keep an eye out. I don’t recall seeing Inon though on the list of manufacturers attending.

  11. Interesting thought. Where did this come from?
  12. Yep, changing the shutter speed does indeed let you change the colour of the background water. The faster the speed, the less light gets to the sensor and the darker the background. The slower the shutter speed, the more light gets to the sensor and the lighter the background. So you can to a fair degree control the "blueness" of the background to suit the image you are trying to create. As Wolfgang sets out, using the LR Tint and Temp sliders changes the whole image WB unless yuu confine the adjustment to areas isolated through a Mask(s). Masks and WB can be tricky compared to using a Mask to, for example, remove a distracting element. But if its only the background and nothing which is a prime element of the subject is excluded, a Mask can do this quite well I find. I used to use diffusers with the Inon Z240 strobes. But now with the Retras, I just can't see any real difference with or without diffusers.
  13. I agree with Dave. The latest version of LR makes the use of masks really easy and very powerful. Removing unwanted items is amazing.

  18. Hi Grace Just to add to Davide's post, you can add an image to a post by clicking the "Drag files here to attach or choose files" which should be at the bottom of the text box. This will allow you to link to a file on your device. On macro shooting, one of my favourite techniques is to use a snoot which allows light to be concentrated on a small object isolating it from its background. See: Good to have you with us Tim

  20. Yeah me too. Though I did find the charging mechanism a bit quirky. But sad news indeed.
  21. Let's move on, guys.....
