    Calling all Profoto Users

    Thanks! I thought it strange, when I ask SLR about the Octa's, and they quoted over the phone that the softboxes comes with the speedrings for Profoto strobes.

    Calling all Profoto Users

    In the market for a softbox for the Profoto D1, and was attracted to the RFi Octa 3 feet softbox. Does anyone knows if the softbox comes with the Profoto speedring, or are speedrings separate purchases for the softboxes?

    Fujifilm X100S

    My guess is that SLR got the camera from some other shop (or parallel import) and therefore cannot do a 1 to 1 ) back to back with Fuji Singapore. Check out the authorized dealer page here FinePix Dealers | Fujifilm Singapore

    What if X200 is an interchangeable lens Rangefinder but manual focus only?

    Interesting that the estimate for the hypothetical lenses would be 1/4 of Leica lenses. Wouldn't those already by available also in the VC M mount lenses, which are also at a fraction of Leica glass, now?

    What if X200 is an interchangeable lens Rangefinder but manual focus only?

    I think this product is already on the market. It's called the M8/M8.2/R-D1s etc.

    Thanks.

    Panoramic Head

    Not sure if you would agree, my observation is that stitching is not a big challenge with the current crop of panoramic software. Even if shot handheld, I was able to obtain a good stitch of the component images. It's when the horizon is not completely horizontal that more work has to be done...

    Panoramic Head

    S$150 is a good price for the big one. Equivalent Novoflex and RRS parts are expensive. Which shop in Singapore would you be buying them from?

    Panoramic Head

    One more point from what you described. If you are using the ball head's panning pivot and if that panning pivot is at the base of the ballhead, you've got to be careful to level the tripod. This is to ensure that the horizontal panning is level.

    Panoramic Head

    I believe I understand what you mean. If you are using 2 panning clamps, then you would achieve the horizontal and vertical panning as you have intended. BTW, where would you get the Benro PC1 or PC0? Any idea of the prices?

    Panoramic Head

    If you look at RRS bars/rails (e.g. MPR series which I use), at about 1/2 inch think and 1.5 inches wide, they are pretty stiff. Properly locked together with the appropriate clamps at sensible spacings, I believe they would form a stiff combination with the camera body mounted using an Arca...

    Panoramic Head

    With the panoramic attachment (like the one you referred to in the URL) at the base and a bar would get you to do single row panoramas. If you are thinking of multi row panos, tilting the whole setup would be important. I think when you are creating the panos that are focused on objects at...

    D7000 Raw + LR 3.3

    Adobe indicated that D7000 is supported in LR3.3. Perhaps you want to check if ACR is updated to the latest version 6.3, since you last used LR 2.7/8?
