I was given a used Vanguard VT219 tripod. While it was a good start for me, I find the ratcheting adjustment design to often be a problem. (Now I know why my friend upgraded :-)
There are SO many out there to choose from new, does anyone have a recommendation on a better design and brand/model they care to share?
Thanks,
Jeffrey

Don't waste your money on a cheap tripod get a good solid one
I have the SystemPRO T325P Carbon Fiber Tripod . A couple things to consider. If you think you will be using it alot (I use my a great deal and carry it all the time hiking) is a carbon fiber. this model is solid and light weight. Carbon Fiber are pricey just for legs. the head I have on it is a manfrotto 804rc2 with quick release plate. It is not a ball head I just did not like the ball head person preference. I have had about 10 different tripods cheap ones under 150.00 and they just did not last or where flimsey and ended up not using them. I wish I had just spent the money the first time and get a good one. Now I am very happy and use it all the time. Even adding a kirk L bracket to it. Good luck with your search

thats strange on the low life of the battery, on all of my different camera(nikon) the battery life is amazing days of shooting evening using live view.

Trying to. Manual is too big. So I'm going slow and trying one chapter at a time. Kayak photo is auto with a little in-camera trim done. I liked the colors.

1. select all your images and use the spray can
2. catalog is what you store all your images in, you sure you don't be collections - which are groupings from your catalog. Ex - I do a catalog each year and will do a collection from the catalog of all my lighthouse shots
3. Their is not one given workflow but check out Scott Kelby site great tutorials or all aspects of photography, lightroom and photoshop.

Nice machine and setup you will love it and should last you a while. Been and still am a Mac geek. I am teaching a course at a local college 20 27 inch Imacs chocked full of ram and using Lion. A few changes with the interface but that just takes a day to get use to and is great in the long run

If it was me, I would switch to aperture priority, then if you are outside change the ISO to 200, if inside change the ISO 1000. Dial the aperture of your camera to F8 (this will give you a middle range depth of field) keep an eye on shutter speed make sure it does not dip below 1/60 of a sec. This will eliminate then need for flash. as long as shutter speed is 1/125 you will freeze most action and if it falls to 1/60 the person most hold still or pose.I have a new Nikon D7000, one lens (16-85mm) uv fi...

I would even crop it even tighter so your eye is not drawn to the hot spot

It's really hard to think about heavy lifting in Elements.
Elements is a fine program can do almost everything photoshop can do for photographers. Work around for straight masking and even has a few tools that photoshop does not have.
