Hi Henning91, I love your light painting shot - I spent pretty much my first few years of SLR photography doing this kind of thing!

i'm not sure if it's feasible at all, and I know there's a written article about it on dslrtips.com, but it would be great to watch a live camera/lense dust cleaning session!

I would like to see a macro and external flash video.

As for all of your other videos, I found them all great and helpful.

Keep up the good work!

I think it would be great to have a review on nightphotography more in depth the one that is currently up, or may i suggest a more "in depth" photography....something along those lines how to actuatly understand the things involved, compostion/postprocessing/ISO/fnumbers, etc all those things that you have to think about when taking a photo, what i m trying to say that is quite easy to just put ur camera on "P" mode and then take a pixture but when it comes to shooting in M, i get a lill scared...think you knw what i m trying to say Gordon?

srry for the big mess but i cant really explain myself

Hi Alex, I hear what you're saying! We will have some more advanced workshops in the future once I've got some more basics out the way...

make that two votes for f stops/synchronicity with DOF...(and throw in a tip or two on how to get good shots of fast moving birds).

Feel the need to upgrade to small moving objects..lol...yeah.

lovin life....

....... and have at least 3 cups of coffee before shooting at 1200th plus...... f stop depending on the day and surrounds

Flash photography! I've got my external flash and would love to know how best to use it. I realise it's a pretty wide scope but anything on flash photography would be great!

Hi Gordon.

I have a so called "photo pass" for a few concerts - but I just can't get that perfect picture!

What about a workshop for concert photography? :)
