I've always been a wanna-be chef.

Yer.. me too.

Did a pan-seared sirloin for dinner tonight. Yummy!

Yeah I made something myself too... sort of. We had pizza at a family friend's house

When I get my strobist kit going I'll shoot some of our dinner too Al did you already have the V4's or did you pick them up at the same time as the YN460's?

anyone who wants a live sky tv stream to watch the ashes online (for those of us without sbs reception or fox) pm me!

great session aussies =]

How can you have no SBS reception? That's pretty odd. I'm playing PS2 while the tea break is on.

Ah, I see now. I've got a cord running from the back of the TV in my room to the living room so that I can watch normal TV on it. It takes away normal TV on the plasma out in the living room but they've got Foxtel anyway

Nope. Picked the V4's up seperately.

The 460s are off focalprice.com and the V4's from Gadget infinity and Image Melbourne.

The pom commentators are rubbish! they're sitting there over the lunch break saying about 'if we look at the english batters top scores, prior against the west indies, blah against blah, if they can replicate those performances make that youd think they're in with a shot'

Hahah! what knobs!

really scraping the barrel already :P

That's cool. I'm just going to buy the two 460's and Yongnuo's triggers off their ebay store. Bought my Yongnuo OC-E3 from them so I know they're good. Speaking of which, I won't need that cord after I get the setup going (not that I use it now anyway) so if anyone is interested in it, PM me. I never got round to doing Jim's mod so it's in perfect condition. I would keep it if I had modded it but yeah, someone else might want it to mod it to make it more useful.

I wouldn't mind getting a radio shutter release for the 400. It would have proved handy today. The odd moment I knocked the stand or got the shutter release caught on the stand caused me to wait until the stand stopped swaying (small movements) but the camera was 8 feet in the air!

I was thinking of picking up a OC-E3, what sort of money we talking? I'm not familiar with jims mod but im guessing thats the Ethernet one?

I wouldn't mind one either but I don't have a good tripod so I generally will handhold anyway

Bloody Pommie Weather, atleast it meant we got to bed earlier I guess.

Nice food shots

Also, never knew the flu was contagious through POTN

Genuine one about $70, aftermarket cheaper.
