  1. Automatic exposure strobe recommendations

    I have been frustrated trying to use a Canon 380 EX TTL strobe on a stand with a flash trigger because it shuts itself down after ninety seconds. I have to constantly go over to it to wake it up.

    No name lenses

    What about Meyer Gorlitz lenses? These seem to be uneven, with the Domiplan having lousy sharpness compared to Prioplan, which some people praise.

    I think I metered on the fountain and then opened it up a stop or two. The density is low in the dark areas. Ideally, I might have made a bit more exposure. However, I am not overly concerned with having detail in darkest areas, such as the person by the fountain. I find that I need to...
