#1030 Backing Up Your Images

Posted by LifeLens on 01 October 2013 - 05:57 PM

How do you back up your precious images? I lost nearly all of mine because my 500GB Stargate portable hard drive crashed the week of my son's wedding. I wanted to cry and throw up, and learned a valuable lesson of having multiple backups just in case.




#993 FYI-Rechargable Batteries for Speedlights

Posted by LifeLens on 01 October 2013 - 05:36 PM

I was curious what batteries to use for my Speedlight (SB700), and I was informed by many pro's to use Eneloop by Sanyo (Panasonic).  As it turns out, these babies really do work well.  They hold a charge through rigorous shooting, and have a quick rebound.

 

I was using disposable batteries in my Speedlight, and it was eating them like candy.  Plus, if I left them in too long they tended to leak.  But these Eneloop batteries are holding up quite well.

 

They're not too expensive either.  I got them from (one of this site's sponsors) B & H.  They have a starter kit for $34 that has all you need plus the charger.

Thanks for the tip JRosen!
