Lighting / Flash diffuser

« on: March 20, 2008, 09:43 »

hi,

I have Nikon D600 flash and some flash diffuser cap. Work fine, but wish to try some softbox attached on flash.

This is what I currently have:
http://www.amazon.com/SBM-Supreme-Diffuser-Olympus-Flashes/dp/B000OUBQWC/ref=pd_bbs_sr_2?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1206023913&sr=8-2

Any advice about flash softboxes and experience about this...

Another question. Previously I was mention that I have Nikon SB-600 and wish to buy another. Are they two work together wireless and when one is attached on camera and other somewhere in wireless mode.

Thank's a lot,
BA

General Stock Discussion / Someone to help keywording images?

« on: October 15, 2007, 18:03 »

Hi,

I have thosands edited images redy for upload, but they are not keyworded and now finding best solution for improve and speed-up process.

One of those solutions is to pay someone to keywor my images. Method will be to send someone small images and they will keyword it and send back. Don't know how much is real price for this job and have anyone some experience about this.

Additiona question is workflow, software and best practice for keywording.

I using microsoft photo info for adding KW's to images, stockphotomaster for generating. Also, here is one tip. Search fotolia database for same subject, order by downloads and copy some of relevant KW's to my images. After all that import generated KW's from Microsoft Word to iStock ImageManager for removing duplicate KW's

I need:
- offer for keywording 100 images
- advice about keywording software
- tips and advices to speed-up process
