I got this flash and am very happy with it. So easy to get good bounce from ceiling shots for natural look. I also attached a business card to it so that in vertical orientation it puts a bit of light into subjects face. In this case......my granddaughter...

Yes, this is true. It still was an unknown.......whether this PT-04TM receiver was capable of handling higher trigger voltages from the QB-350A flash. Now I can say that it is capable, and a good way to use an external flash which one may already have, thus avoiding the purchase of a more...

For those that may be interested. I took a chance and tried my Quantaray QB-350A with the PT-04TM even though the flash has a high trigger voltage. 270v. It works like a charm and no damage so far after 50 photos. It is a smaller flash and therefore easier to hold, lighter to carry around...

Thank you for your kind remarks. I did not use flash for those photos. They were just available light, and not very much light I must say. Our living room in our house does not have many windows so it is a challenge for photography there. I have ordered a Samsung flash(the sef-20a), but...

It's tough for any P&S camera to capture kids even with a fast lens. It's a juggling act between setting a shutter speed fast enough to stop movement and an iso low enough to present good quality. Here are some shots of my granddaughter who is never still unless asleep. I think they represent...

I posted this on DPReview Samsung Talk forum today, and will post it here also, so that maybe someone will benefit from it. Got the ebay flash trigger today. Tried my Sunpak 383, and the PT-04TM fires it in M, A, S, P modes, but there are several troubles with this setup. In A, S, P modes you...

I noticed that Opanda IExif 2.3 which I use for reading exif of images does not read the EX1/TL500 file correctly or maybe the camera isn't encoding it into the exif file correctly. A photo which I took with image adjustments were contrast -1, sharpness +2, and saturation 0 was reported by...

I agree with both. It really is best to wait for a good review from websites that have good scientific methods. Even though I could not wait for other reviews other than Luminous Landscape, I purchased the camera anyway, and after a little testing, I considered returning the camera. But I...

OK I apologize for the mix up in the order of the images in my post on page 10. I have corrected and labeled the pictures so that confusion is eliminated. Again the vignetting in the fz35 picture corner is from a lens hood adapter which is from my fz20. I have stuck it onto the fz35 to hold my...

"why the #02 got vignetting one?" Sorry. You don't miss a thing. That vignetting is from my fz20 lens hood adapter which I have stuck onto the fz35 so that I can mount a polarizer and GND filter when shooting landscapes. It is a good clue as to which photo is which. EX1 has no vignetting...

Sorry, I got the images in wrong order. the higher contrast images are the ex1.

May be hard to duplicate the conditions under which you took your photo, but here is a couple of comparison shots between my Panasonic FZ35 and EX1/TL500. Hopefully you can compare and see for yourself if the jagged edges are a problem. The crops are approximately 1:1. Of course both cameras...

I will have a closer look, and see if I can shoot something that might be similar so that I can evaluate.

Not too sure how to quote others and put into reply....

"Sorry, i dont understand this grayed out thingy, do u mean people's face becomes grayish? When you +2 to sharpness, how does ISO400 & ISO800 look? I normal use shooting in an environment similar like shopping mall without flash. Also like when shooting performance at Esplanade Outdoor Theater...
