My wife was very rare today that want to take some photos of Megumi and herself. So I pulled out my D200 and SB-800, tried some CLS shots and normal shots. Below are the outcome:

I should wear a more colourful shirt…

Remote Flash CLS on Nikon D200 + SB-800

Today I tried CLS (Creative Lighting System) on my D200 + SB-800. Got to learn on how to set the camera and flash into REMOTE mode.

Here’s the instruction that I thought of sharing and keeping reference for myself:

on D200

• Menu
• Pencil Menu
• e Bracketing/Flash
• e3Buil-in Flash
• c Commander Mode

on SB-800

• Press SEL button for 5 seconds
• Flash menu
• REMOTE
• Press SEL button for 5 seonds

Some tips:

• You must have your built in flash pop up, else it will not trigger the SB-800.
• You can set to have the built in flash disabled, so all flash power will only be from the SB-800 and no light from built in flash.

Heat Up on Sony?

Another leak photo of the possible Press Release by Sony.

It seems like there will be TWO new DSLRs from Sony. One seems to be the A300 (on the left) and there seems to be another more PRO body on the right. Could it be in the Minolta 9 series range?!

As for lenses, there might be 7~9 new lenses from Sony. Still, Sony lenses are way too expensive in my opinion. Their 70-200mm F2.8 lens is about 15% more than Nikon and Canon equivalent, and that is in the RM8k~9k region!

One must considered deeply before wetting on Sony DSLR…

Sony Alpha A300? New Alpha?

There are rumors that Sony will announce a new Alpha on 5th September 2007, which is next week.

A photo showing possible Alpha A300 is flying in the net…

It is said to have 12MP sensor, possible the same sensor used in Nikon D300. It supposed to be a model higher than the current A100, possible in the Minolta 7 series.

The vertical grip looks great in the photo, Minolta used to make the best vertical grip for their SLR back in the film days, giving the best ergonomic and functionality to users.

Let’s wait for further news in September…
