Dano,
Enough talking about your build thread! I thought you were posting more pictures lol.

 

[Deb91]

I screwed that up! I meant to say stop talking about cameras on your build thread and post more pictures!

Try shooting in RAW and using preview extractor from:

You loose the EXIF data in the JPG, but the program is extrememly small and is a fast way of getting a JPG from the photo. That way you don't have to shoot in JPG+RAW.

Okay... Deb is right, I guess this is getting off track

I shoot only in RAW and use Downloader Pro, Capture NX and Adobe Photoshop Elements. I'm still learning the best way to use the software programs. I downloaded Preview Extractor and will check it out.

I'll take some new pics tonight as I want to experiment with the lighting.

Capture NX is very cool (I still need to learn how to use it better). Adobe is a standard of course. I don't know Downloader Pro.

But sometimes you just want to share the jpg's quickly (and sometimes the camera does a good enough job without post processing). That is when I use preview extractor. I can't wait to see your new pictures.

As promised here are the photos from tonight. I'll start with some basic ones and move on to ones I felt came out the best.

Great photos. What are you using for your light source? Are these all with the macro lens?

 

[Dano999]

I am using the SB-600 with a Sigma f/2.8 EX Macro lens. I have a shoe cord for the flash so I can move it to different positions. I also use a remote cord for the shutter release.

I need to get another inexpensive tripod for the remote flash to make things easier. I think I have one in the garage.

 

[Dano999]

I use a Sigma 35-70mm f/3.5-4.5 for the full tank shots. I will be upgrading this lens in the future. Maybe with the 50mm f/1.8.
