Amazon and Adorama have the same card for the same price, with no date limit. Also, the regular price varies quite a bit. Seems to be a marketing strategy to make you to buy.
Too bad I just got a 128Gb. I would have considered.
Nice set and well done. Like the exposure.
I'll be in Barcelona later this month and still deciding which lenses to take to travel light. So far, I'll take my 18-200mm and the 50mm 1.8, no tripod as there will be lots of walking. If you don't mind, what lenses did you use on your trip?
If your system can handle the newer O/S, you can clone your c:\ drive and upgrade there. If you don't like it, you can always put the old drive back.
Ah, but the most widely used measurement of altitude is in feet. Still, metric/english units issues were the cause for the Korean Air MD-11 crash, when they were told to ascend to an altitude in meters and the pilot thought it was in feet. I would tend to think that even where there is the need for unit conversion, most of the problems are rather caused by a lack of communication.

While it is true that the endeavor will come with its share of responsibility, the key is to be prepared. Be ready and you’ll be fine.
On my last wedding I had allocated 30 mins. for group photos inside the church, but the priest was on a roll. He left me six minutes for all the group photos while the coordinator for the next wedding was breathing behind my neck and next guests started to arrive. I did well because I was prepared, knew what to do and moved everyone quickly -no assistance.
Here are some tips that might help:
• Be the first one at the venue. Stand at the entrance if you have time. It helps build rapport with those you don’t know. You don’t have to shake hands with everyone, but a simple hello goes a long way to make them comfortable for posing later on. Also, pictures of the groom/bride as they arrive help to develop the story.
• Bring a small step ladder. It provides a different angle and will help photograph the groom/bride among the crowd.
• Wear comfortable shoes. You might be on your feet for a while.
• Will your camera work with low light? Will you need to rent equipment? Will your gear handle a large group?
• If you are working alone and you miss a photo, don’t sweat it. Just make sure you get the key ones.
• Keep track of how many exposures you have left.
• Cellphones, ipads, etc. will get on your way. Be nice and handle it like a seasoned pro.
• Put some aspirin and an energy bar in your camera bag, just in case.
• Battery packs for camera & flash help taking photos for an extended time.
• Have someone you trust to help you, perhaps a close family member. Those associated with the wedding are in party mode.
• Attend the rehearsal, if there is one. It helps find out where you will stand, what will happen, etc.
• Good luck and have fun. Let us know how it went. Show some pics!
These are great photos.
I shot sports for 13 plus years while my kids played soccer, basketball and baseball. Thank God for auto ISO for cloudy days. Was it hard to get permission to be in the sidelines?
Richard,
Great photos. Did you use a 600mm lens? Thanks.
I cleaned my two cameras' sensors yesterday for the first time. Could not be easier. Get yourself a loupe so you can see the sensor and any dust it may have. My cameras are APS-C, so I got the appropriate size swabs. The swabs have a video which shows what to do. The first thing I did was to run the sensor cleaning option in the camera a few times. Then used the blower to remove the looser particles.
I kind of freaked out because after the first pass after I noticed a streak that was not there before. I thought I scratched the sensor, but then realized I used too much liquid. After another pass (and another swab) the streak was gone and the sensor was pristine. Ended using more swabs than necessary, but now I know how. Only use the swab once back and forth. Otherwise you might be putting back those dust particles.
This is what I used:

Did you have those drives connected via USB? If I connect such drives using my docking station only disk management sees it, but cannot convert it to GPT. I have to open my desktop and connect it inside for it to be fully recognized and do whatever I need.

Usually, my wife and I each have a backpack for our gear, but we are planning a trip to Scotland, and I want to condense everything into one bag. Below is a list of what we will be taking. Of course, it still needs to fit under the seat, if possible. I would like to stay under $250, but would go higher for the perfect bag.
R7
6D mkII
100-400
RF100-500
16-35
Maybe a second R7 if there is room.
Thanks, Mike
The bag I'd choose, besides to fit all these, would be able to attach a tripod, a water bottle and be able to put on the ground without concerns of getting it wet. I have an old Case Logic bag I bought for $50 that can do most of this plus a laptop. Can't find the model number though but it is similar to model 3204534.
