Verry good tripod ... without the original ballhead

Advantages: light, stable, good construction
Disadvantages: ball head not usable

this tripod is a good choice for hiking or on travel. Its just its head too light and impractical. I have an adapter that allows you to mount any photo ballhead on this tripod : http://pouypouy.blogspot.com/2009/06/how-to-adapt-photo-ballhead-on.html # the locking legs system is simple, safe and quick # the mounting / down / locking system of the central column is simple, good stop, without crank # the low-angle leg setting can autorize to put the ...
...is stable with a load of 2 or 3kg, without risk of camera fall down The bad side of this choice is its video ballhead: polycarbonate, the locking system does not take the load of 2 kg (it's normal : tripod is sold for a maximum load of 1 kg ), especially in vertical position (portrait). ...

Review of Sony VCT 1170RM Tripod

Nice addon for your Nikon

Advantages: Long exposure shutter lock.
Disadvantages: No autofocus

...was included free with my Nikon SLR camera. The retail price of this is around £54.99. The Unit ####### You know your getting a quality product when you hear "Nikon" - they have been in the business for years, and are one of the most trusted companies when it comes to photography. As the name suggests it's only suitable for Nikon cameras. I have the Nikon D80 and it works perfectly with it. One side of the cable inserts to the side of the camera ...
...enough for you (80cms) then Nikon have made available an extension cable. This can be purchased separately for around £45.00 for a length of 3m. In my view this is really expensive as the actual unit is £54.99 ! Disadvantages ############ You can get other much better remotes for half the price, which have the additional autofocus. Really here all you are paying for is the "Nikon" brand name. ...

Review of Nikon MC 30 Cable Remote control for Camera

Nikon SB 600

Advantages: Easy to read clear LCD, Light weight
Disadvantages: Limited Flash Range

...using this flash on my Nikon D100 & have since bought a D200 both using the same Nikon 24~120 VR Lens. The focus zoom function works on this flash, by works I am saying you can hear something but I have never noticed the difference when I have it switched off. On a more positive note, Power management is great. I just leave the flash set in the default STANDBY mode & never turn it off. It turns itself on magically whenever you need it, and goes ...
...Flash (get it ?) when you want it. Exposure compensation may set at the camera or the flash. The flash goes from -3 to +3 stops. If you have both the camera and the flash set, you get the TOTAL of the two settings. That means if you set the camera to -1 and the flash to +1 you get the same as leaving them both alone (they cancel), and if you set both the camera and flash to +1 you get a total of +2. I don't know why you should want to do this & ...

Review of Nikon SB 600 Hot-shoe clip-on flash

Canon RC shutter release

Advantages: Forget Camera shake, well, almost.
Disadvantages: Can be a little fiddly

...to the camera. Canon have also made the RC5 remote, which, whilst it is slightly bigger and a little more comfortable to use, doesn't give you the option to pick between timer delay, and simple shutter release. This remote will easily give you a good 5M range, although I tend to use mine standing next to the camera when it's mounted on a tripod, simply to remove as much camera shake as I can. Obviously the windy weather can also contribute to camera ...
...for that yet. Expect to pay anthing from £9 to £35 - so it pays to shop around. Downsides: It is a little on the small side, and can be fiddly when outdoors (particularly if cold) - the small size doesn't necessarily make it hard to use, just more likely to drop it. But on the plus side: Comes with a shoulder strap mount so you can keep it attached to your camera when not in use, good range and has dual function. ...
