Hello all,

What would you recommend to remotely trigger a Nikon D7100 from a D750? I am think of Pocket Wizards but what transmitter and receiver do I need?

Also what additional triggers are need to fire a strobe and speedlight from the D750 in a studio environment?

Hopefully the triggers would work in both environments separately.

Helps eliminate wrist strain and keeps the image vertical.

I use it for batch processing thousands of sport images while making auto adjustments and adding styles on import. It is the fastest processor I have used and is very convenient to my workflow. On the drive home I import to a SSD and when home simply move the SSD to my desktop with all the adjustments for culling and any further editing. The colour rendition is great.

Yes I will have 2-4k images in RAW uploaded to my SSD while applying auto adjustments and styles added. Once culled and reviewed for any further adjustments I will then convert to jpgs (could be about 1500) for uploading to a website.

I have a 2014 macbook pro (i5, 16gb) and a 2013 iMac (i7, 16gb) so with limited graphics ability. I use the laptop to transfer images to an external SSD when away from home and then use the SSD with the iMac for further editing. Due to the age of the computers I am toying with replacing one only or adding an eGPU to speeden up the processing on Capture One 20. CO 20 recommended requirements includes dual GPU cards of 4gb each.

Does anyone have experience of using an eGPU on older Apple machines and what advice do they have?

Or should I bite the bullet and get a new apple with 8gb graphics?

What are your recommended specs for batch processing 2,000 to 4,000 images on an iMac?

Thanks to all.

It does exist but I haven’t bought one , yet, because I upload using capture one with auto settings and styles.

I use a Lacie Rugged SSD which is kept in my car boot for traveling. Once an event is over I upload to the SSD via my laptop when driving home and when home simply plug in the SSD to my desktop for editing, culling etc. It has never failed me.

Look for the Tokina 100mm 2.8 macro lens, quality and good working distance combined and cheaper than other brands.

I have found in the cold that the wireless triggers need to get closer to the camera as the batteries drain. I have started with the speedlight across a ski trail but ended up with it next to me. Take plenty of batteries for both the speedlight and camera! I dont know if rechargeable batteries are worse than non rechrageable for the speedlight but I have a suspicion that they are.

Check your editing software for any minimum system requirements.

I use a SSD for my weekend projects and edit and convert the RAWs to JPG. Once completed I transfer them to another external hard disc, but not a SSD. I back up to another external hard disc, again not a SSD.

This way I can use the smaller SSD, which I can also take on location and upload the images from the camera via my laptop as this is also part of the batch editing I do. If the trip is long I will also start the jpg conversion. Once home I complete the editing process on my desktop by just plugging in the SSD.

Try Loxley, they are based near Glasgow and do a lot of work for professionals, so are more expensive than some. Just upload your images through their website and they will deliver straight to your niece. They are also smugmug's chosen UK printer.
