Go to Belle immediately after entering at rope drop. Be at the front entrance 15-30 minutes before posted opening. This works even better if you're staying on property and can go for early magic hours in the morning. Watch the opening show in front of the train station and then you will be...

ARRGGGHHHH..... So I went over to Adorama and B&H to check on that great price. While there I'm reading lots of reviews that say the Sigma is unreliable, focuses poorly wide open, and may need to be sent back for recalibration of the lens if problems occur. I'm not sure I want to drop money on a...

Hmmm.... seems the Sigma may be the way to go. Thanks to all who responded. If anyone else has additional thoughts, please chime in! :goodvibes

Hi all. I've got the go ahead to buy another lens. I've been using the Canon 1.8 50mm for dark rides and doing o.k., but would love the additional capability of a 1.4 So, all of you with an opinion, if you could have one of these as a choice (mostly for dark ride captures since I can use the 1.8...

We are DVC and usually go twice a year, X-mas holiday and summer. In the summer we go in late July or August. I am always blown away by the amount of people in the parks during the holidays. You are actually stepping over people in the castle hub during parades and fireworks. EPCOT is a mad...

Thanks for the reply ladies. I dropped in a new card and will try that out. My guess is that was the problem; I HOPE that was the problem!! :thumbsup2

While working in post, some of my raw images came up obliviated by a layer of white and pink that seemed to be spread over the picture. I could view the image as a thumbnail, and they looked fine, but when I clicked on the raw thumbnail to enlarge it to full size for processing, the white/pink...

Got it. Thanks for your insight, I always appreciate your opinion and get good advice from your responses. I'll try it again tonight! :thumbsup2

Thanks for the info. This makes sense to me! :goodvibes

So I can try it again with a lower ISO and that will allow me to get a longer exposure at the apeture I want. I'll give that a try. Thanks for the info! :thumbsup2

So I thought I had this figured out. I'm taking a sunset shot of Animal Kingdom rooftops. I want to extend my exposure time because of the darker dusk light conditions. I'm shooting with a Canon 70-300 zoom all the way out to 300, on a Canon 40D body, 1600 ISO. I set the dial to "TV" mode, dial...

I've been hearing about Disney bringing up the temperatures on rides and in shops throughout the parks. Can anyone who has been there rescently (say within the past week or so) or is there now, report on climate conditions in the rides or the stores? I saw one person who said Spaceship Earth at...

Now that is a quote to live by.... for photography or any situation!

Oops, sorry. SSE is spaceship earth.

Drat! Why can't getting around an established computer monitored system be easy? I'll be at the world for a longer stay so I'll try your technique first but check for other threads to "creatively ensure" the room is comfy. Thanks for responding... stay cool!! :goodvibes

We are heading down for the month of July and I've seen some random comments about rides and stores being warmer than normal around the parks. One comment stated that SSE in particular was very hot earlier this month. If anyone has recent info on ride temps I would be curious to know if things...

Hi everybody. I really didn't anticipate making a controversy with my original question. But thanks for the replies. I certainly understand the reasons behind possibly not shooting during peak sun hours now. And, I have the added subject of photography art interpretation to consider! So thanks...

Thanks for the thread lead. One of the posts gave me the idea that maybe I could keep my gear in our "cold bag" that we use for transporting food from the grocery store to the room. If that were empty, and I zipped it up overnight, it should keep the cold air out as well as it does the warm air...

Good tips everyone. Balcony pre-warm, wrap in some type of cloth, keep near fridge vent, place between curtain and sliding glass door to catch the sun.... got it. Thanks as always :goodvibes

Forgot to ask you Justin, how do I override the motion sensor to keep that A/C cranking while sleeping?? That would be a great tip I can use in about 3 weeks.
