Flashes are Neewer, and triggers are also Neewer.

Trying to use 2 flashes off camera with remote triggers. The master will trigger the flashes, but the camera D810 with the master on the hotshoe, will not. To start with I went into the custom setting menu, Braketing/flash, flash control for built-in flash, and set it to Commander mode, both Group A and B set to "M", all units set to channel "1" and pressed OK. Still NO joy. I have even tried it without the master on the camera. I have even tried it with the same settings on a D750, and still no joy. So what am I missing, and or doing wrong?

Apparently we were there about the same time frame. I have been there many times, and always enjoy the experience. Your captures are a little different than mine, but awesome.

The question is: Do you PP one photo of a pano (if so which one), and copy the changes to the other photos in the pano, and then stitch? Or do you stitch the RAW files together, and then PP?

Went to Pella, Iowa yesterday for their annual tulip festival. Attaching a few of my favorites. First go at photographing flowers.

This past weekend in Davenport, Iowa they had a public display of ice carvings. These are my favorites after a little PP, and cropping.

As usual you folks have come through again, and have given me a starting point. Now all I have to do is go out and practice, and put it to use to find out what works for me. After reading the responses, I realized that I was remiss for not mentioning that I was wanting to stitch multiple portrait oriented photos into a pano. For Gene51: Thanks for posting those awesome panos. They effectively demonstrate your recommendation for using a prime. I can only hope that I can do half as good as you, and if so I will be encouraged to strive to improve. To all that responded - Thanks. Elmo

The questions are: "What is your focal length of choice for shooting landscape panos?" Prime or zoom? If zoom what focal length do you normally use? Just curious as I watched a You Tube video last night where the guy used a nifty 50.

Need some objective advice/input to hopefully make a practical GAS decision. Currently using a D750, and it does all that I want or need it to do. I am planning a 6 week long adventure next summer to various western national parks, and based upon previous visits I anticipate the majority of my photo ops will be primarily landscapes, waterfalls and/or panos. However, (hopefully) there will be opportunities to get some shots of wild life, and therefore I am considering purchasing a D7200 to go with my 150-600 just for wild life. My other option would be to replace the D750 with an D850, and then I would have the extra pixels that would allow me to crop, and I wouldn't have to carry 2 bodies.

My first hiking visit, and I want to go back.
