I care about them!!!
Oh, how i wish I had my film negatives. Mine were lost or misplaced while moving. I hope you have or will digitize your photostory (history). The limited few that I found I digitized them. It surprises me when I extract amazingly rich saturation from some of the slides.

I'm sure that nobody in my family will care but in case they do, I have all of my negatives in sleeves categorized by year and month and I have prints in shoeboxes by year also.

Yes the built-in flash works fine.
I guess I’ll use the Yongnuo as a back up.
Thanks to all!

OK, thanks for the reply.
But the flash is firing. Although, it sounds like it’s firing out of sync. When I shoot with the multi mode and manual mode it pops with good results, but not TTL. I have cleaned the contacts.

Hi,
Nikon D610 Pictures black w/flash on TTL
Nikon Yongnuo 568ex

It happens on all mode. Picture is black, but it's dark, as if the flash wouldn't flash.

Auto, Shutter priority, Aperture priority, Manual.

I tried changing flash sync speed in menus, from 1/60 to 1/200 same result. Manual and multi modes works somewhat but not TTL
Rear curtain and red eye is off. What am I not doing? This has happened to me once before but I figured it out for myself. Now, urgency and I can't fix the problem.

Aperture : F4 etc,
Shutter speed : 1/60 etc,
Exposure Mode : Manual
Flash Sync Mode : Front Curtain
Flash Mode : Optional, iTTL-
Flash Exposure Comp : 0EV etc,
WB: Flash
ISO: Various, then at 6400, I finally get a tungsten looking image, but still too dark.

Hello everyone Hey…and how are you today?…

My first zeal for photography began back in the late 60s.(Whoops, I'm telling my age)

I began to notice everyone's enthusiasm during Family events when some members would get together and Talk about how beautiful, how nice, how great particular Photographs were. Yes, me, always a critic, would say to myself, Even sometimes openly, "that's not such a great shot, I can't see any details, the eyes look like a black spot." I also noticed, how when the shooter got ready to shoots, their first action was to back up. It was then that I realize that close-ups will render what I was expecting. So in an effort to create better photographs, Pictures they were called at that time :-), I went out and got myself a Polaroid Squareshooter 2.

The very first picture I shot was a portrait of myself. Unfortunately I can only wish that I'd have that picture today. The rest is history.

Fast forward 1983, I decided to go Pro, No pun intended. I said I decided... I never made it there. Oh, I have managed a few portraits shoots for small fees for family (if a family member wanted a professional shoot, yes of course I charge them. Although they never paid me) and Photo shoots for friends and their families. I have a few wedding for fees under my belt. My excuse. I understand that there is no excuse. Due to family circumstances and my lack of confidence in myself to achieve higher goals, I never quite made it to the big-times.

Now, here I stand again. I've made some investments in some professional equipments cameras and studio equipment lightings and accessories. Today I'm confident that I am a professional photographer. I just have to get out there and present myself to the world. Win some lose some! Employing thousands of my best efforts to achieve my goals.

I'm optimistic for us all here in this forum. Thank you for having me,

Kind regards,

I am in strong agreement with you. I received and 'introduce yourself' link when I first register in, However, I did not complete it at that time. Now, I am not able to find that link again. I think that, This is a wonderful sight.

I am very happy that I found this site. I think that it is perfect for aspiring photographers. Unfortunately, navigation leaves a lot to be desired.

Please forgive me if this sounds like I'm being critical. I am by no means being critical. I know that we all can help to improve the side. And if by any means, I can help to improve the site. I will.

I am not a neofight, Nor a professional at this time although I am optimistic that within next few weeks I will be growing my professional zeal.

So, I totally understand that this is not the appropriate place to introduce myself.

My name is Earl. Hey…and how are you today?! A.k.a. SirDuke
