Porter’s Staff – Nikon 1 Series Camera Shootout

Posted on by Posted in Uncategorized Leave a comment

 

Hey guys,

Jayson from Nikon was kind enough to loan us a bunch of Nikon 1 Series camera gear.  Armed with J1s, V1s, glass and flashes we sent a bunch of the staff out into the world to field test them.  We put a collection of shots on our Facebook page and now we NEED YOUR HELP to find out who amongst the Porter’s Crew is the Best Nikon 1 Series Photographer!  If you go to our Facebook fan page and vote for which image you think is the best, you will automatically be entered into a random drawing to win FREE STUFF!

Thanks for Playing!

Here it the link to our PORTER’S CAMERA AND DIGITAL IMAGING FACEBOOK PAGE NIKON 1 SERIES SHOOTOUT!

Setting Up Wireless TTL Flash with Nikon and Canon Systems

Posted on by Posted in DSLR Next Steps, Techniques, Tips Leave a comment

We received a lot of comments from folks wanting to learn how to set up their off camera wireless TTL systems, so we went ahead and built these little introductory videos to show you how to do it!

For Nikon

The video below will walk you through setting up Nikon’s Creative Lighting System for off camera wireless TTL.  Camera models that can use this system with a pop up flash include the D70, D70s, D80, D90, D7000, D200, D300, D300s, D700, and D800.  Speedlights that work include the SB-600, SB-700, SB-800, SB-900, SB-910 and some from other manufacturers like Nissin and Metz.

 

For Canon

The video below shows us how you would set it up on the Canon Systems.  Canon cameras that can play include the Rebel T3i/600D, T4i/650D, 60D, and 7D.  Canon Speedlites include the 270EX, 320EX, 430EX, 580EX, and 600EX-RT.  Also, there are 3rd party flashes that can work as well.

 

Okay, hope that helps!  If you need more instruction, check out these DVD tutorials available to walk you through the more advance operations of the systems:
