photoxels.com: Nikon Wireless Flash System

Nikon Wireless Flash System

Nikon’s Advanced Wireless Lighting allows you to use up to 3 groups of remote flash speedlights and control the flash output of each group independently. Each group can have it’s exposure individually adjusted by a range of -3.0 to +3.0 EV steps. While this all seems complicated at first sight, Nikon has really made this almost idiot-proof — once you get past setting the Commander and Remote units to trigger properly.
I have collected a short list of online tutorials that take the sting out of these settings:
- KenRockwell: How to Use Nikon’s Strobes Wirelessly (1 remote unit)
- Imaging Resource: Nikon’s Wireless Lighting System At Work (3 remote units)
- Nikon: Advanced Wireless Lighting (6 remote units)

Sony Ericsson Experia Launched and Priced in India

The Sony Ericsson Experia has been launched at a price of Rs.45k, much higher than most of the competition. This flagship is available at some online retailers for around Rs.42k. This is quite steep, considering Sony Ericsson's service in India really sucks, amongst the mainstream handset makers. With my past experience I would not be investing that kind of money for something that may not last 2 years, with all the touch sensitive screen and the moving parts. Its also a clearly overpriced product, the comparable product being the HTC Tytn II with very similar specs and 30% cheaper.

I'm not too excited.

Canon DSLR EOS 1000D with 18-55mm IS lens

Canon has released the cut down version of the 450D in order to compete with the Olympus, Pentax, Sony and Nikon cameras at the lower end. With its superior CMOS sensor, which is noise-less even at very high ISO settings, the 10Mp 1000d is the best choice as far as photo graphy is concerned. the Price is actually lower than the 400d, but the features are a mix of 450D and 400D, so it makes more sense to buy the 1000D more than the 400D.
The Lens is also the same as the 450D Kit. Its an Image stabalised lens with 3X range, Great to start with.

Current prices are Rs.29,990 for with 2 years Canon India Waranty including vat. @ jjmehta.com
