I calibrated mine the other day, after the shoot. Where I see the cast is along his shirt, by her face. It's a slight purple color, and carries through on the shirt, although faint. As for the red, he could just be a very 'red' person..but, noticeably his ear, and arm...but, maybe they just are that color.  ???

That's all I see...but, maybe it's his attempt at cross-processing colors...so, I'm not sure. Perry will have to divulge some more info. here. :lol:

Yeah, I'm seeing like you are. The purple is definitely there. Sorry, I thought you meant the whole shirt. I do think he's just a "red" person, especially the ears.

Anyways about the picture .. you don't like it cause the suns is to strong? is cool just say so .. :p .. everyones opinion is value .. I have like 50 shoots and I don't like many .. I was shooting with a ab400 after that happen and wasn't to happy with the lighting ...

I do like the shot. It's impressive at first glance, but I do think the sun is a bit too much. But these things are so hard to guess when it doesn't look like that through the VF.

Like Manish said, maybe if she were partially blocking it, it'd even things out.

I love the supplemental lighting too. :D

I had read that thread before, but never made the connection. Did the mods really give him the Energizer bunny avatar? I imagine if they did, it's unchangeable, like the "title" thing. :)

I can't gloat by any means though. I've made stupider mistakes, and continue to on a weekly basis. :p

I can change my avatar. I just don't because it's big :p.

Hey all, it's time for us to show our friend Perry some moral support!

His old thread "Wah wah my 430 is malfunctioning" was dying a quiet, ignominous death, and a mod announced he was closing it for lack of interest, when Perry found out and single-handedly succeded in getting it resurrected.

The original thread is here:

https://photography-on-the.net/forum/showthre​ad.php?t=455916

And, you can see how Perry skillfully managed to manipulate the mods into reopening his thread here:

https://photography-on-the.net/forum/showthre​ad.php?t=670022

Soon after, and I'll take a little credit, the original thread got moved from the flash group to the Lounge, where a whole new gang of forumers can catch the fun:)!

Why tony? WHYYY?!?!?!? :lol:

Ivan I actually like the picture a lot. I think it would be much better without the sun though, it's a bit too overpowering. The composition is excellent - better than in mine :p.

I like everything but the flare. It's a little too much for my taste.

I'd say it was a sync issue but you're shooting at 1/200 which is the max sync speed. Did you try 1/160 to see if it got rid of that black line?

How many actuations on that camera? Possible the shutter is dying?

Do you see the line even w/o off camera flash?

I didn't notice the line until I started processing. I've use the 5D before with my bee and no issues....but this was the first I'd used the triggers. The camera is brand new....less than 1K clicks. And no, this was the first time it's appeared.

The skyports sync slower than other triggering devices. I'd try 1/160th, and see if it still happens.
