Great video like always... quick question do you use filters on your lenses if you do would you mind telling me the brand of the filters (UV, CPL, and GND) also I am having some issue with flash batteries running out quickly what do you suggest to help me with this problem. Thanks

@dk2893 havent used cpl for a long tme but should get myself one some time. the gnd are by cokin which i have done a video on and uv are just lens protectors.

How do you attach the rosco strobist gells to the flashes. I noticed that you had no Velcro on the flash. I know the sb-900's have a holder but as a sb-600 owner I don't. Thanks

Why do you have as a second camera a Fuji instead of a Nikon?

[dombower]

cos the fuji is amazing! if fuji bring out a s6 ill buy that over any nikon d800 or d3! ask any portrait photographer and they will say the same.

@dk2893 I use energizer rechargeable batteries with the 15 minute charger. It is so simple and the battery life is amazing!

@dombower do the fuji use the same lens bajonets?

[meltdownman1]

I think Nikon is the same: My Canon 5D Mark II has the ability to adjust the RGB balances. I have not come across any real good explanation of using this capability. One of the questions I have is can you adjust the settings on the RGB balance in place of colored filters? Is this its purpose? Note: My camera makes duplicates of the shots with these color adjustments. In fact I can do "color bracketing" e.g by coming up with 3 pics for every 1 and 9 pics for every 3 during a bracketing shot

how is the fuji ?

How do i keep or protect my camera from getting fungus or damage? Can i use those Crumpler photography bags for storage?

[RoundTheBendFilms]

What's the bag? I might get something like this. Do you think it's airport "certified" cause I don't know if you can have those light stands sticking out like that.
