    Nikon Flashguns.

    i've got Nissin Di622 mk2. it's got similar flash power to SB900, but only costs £120. because my D3100 doesn't have commander, when off camera, i use optical slave mode and it works great.

    Looking to buy a DSLR for ~£300

    got my Nikon D3100 with kit lens for £300, second hand but only 808 shutter count. (i've done over 500 by now, 3 weeks after getting it, so im thinking 800 is very low)

    if you could only have use 1 lens

    you guys need to say what crop factor you are all using. on my 1.5x D3100, i'd go with something similar to the kit lens. the 17-55mm f2.8G looks excellent if i had the money.

    Filters

    i've not shot a lot under artificial lighting, but i've not had any problem with my Hoya HMC UV filter, even at silly angles when shooting sunset. also got a D3100, with 18-55mm kit lens, 55-200mm cheap lens and a 35mm f1.8G. all got the same HMC UV filter on them for protection.

    Nikon D5100 Next Lens 35mm or 50mm F1.8?

    get 35mm f1.8G. i was debating between the two and came to the exact same conclusion as James J. check out my flickr for some shots using the 35mm.

    Why bother with anything other than minimums?

    you are missing the point. FPS -> frame per second. by definition, it should be average number of frames recorded over that second, so those unless those 10 stuttering frames are within 1 second, the minimal figure should should not be affected. and if those 10 slow frames are within 1...

    Assassins Creed Brotherhood PC release dates (UK: March 18th)

    get online and play multiplayer! best alternative to the mass FPS out there. as long as the game isn't full of roof running noobs, as long as everyone stay on the ground and use skills, it's a brilliant game. all about deception and cunning.

    Dell U2711 Scaling

    the scaling in U2711 is better than nVidia graphics card GPU software scaling. i went from 5870 to gtx580, with the nvidia card, i forgot to turn off GPU scaling, and for the first few days, i was wondering why is everything blurry. 1080p on the monitor looks nearly as sharp as native. in...

    so was there any new game mechanics that you had trouble with in coop, since it wasn't introduced in singleplayer by chapter 9?

    what is the minimal singleplayer chapter requirement for coop? i heard you need to play a bit of singleplayer to get through the tutorials first.

    What do you prefer? 3D or 3 Monitor gaming?

    neither. single large monitor, zero compatibility issues. EVERYTHING is bigger, not just games. 3D monitor would depend heavily on whether the game have good 3D support. 3 monitor would also depend on game support and when you get out of the game, you always have to set your windows setting...

    Assassins Creed Brotherhood PC release dates (UK: March 18th)

    invest all your money in shops! they are the best way to earn money. invest, and after 20 minutes, most of your investment will be back, visit a bank and continue to invest. that way, if you can't afford something, keep playing for 20 more minutes and you will be able to :D

    that's just typical.... what if i want to play forward VSS recon? the "CustomPC" (search term) server also runs weapon limiter, but it only limits 12x scope. most bush wookies use 12x scope, and the CPC server only limit that, so if you wish to use VSS or quickscope on the front-line, it is...

    try close down FRAPs? was getting frequent crashes while recording, and once not recording. so closed FRAPs down and seems fine now. if that fails, close down everything that interacts with GPU and/or have any overlay. (eg Steam, MSI Afterbuner, VOIP program)

    Is the ATI problem still in GTA IV?

    looks like memory leak. 5870: utter rubbish, totally unplayable, no matter what setting. very disappointed and even considered to go back to 260. upgraded to 580 when it came out (that's how eager i am to ditch the horrible AMD drivers) smoothest experience ever. have yet to find a need to...
