Originally posted by 90 mm Tanker To begin with, I am older than dirt and technology is terrifying. I have been shooting figure work for six or seven years with a standard DSLR and for the most part doing OK. I got my 645D after some years of yearning (and saving) for medium format.
Hey, welcome! Nice that you joined! I think you'll fit right in. I think there are a quite a few users on this forum with similar background
I don't have 645 to help you with that, but I'm sure someone will answer your questions soon
you can also start a thread in the 645 subforum - 645 is a different kind of beast
Most I can recommend is to check the contacts to make sure they are all clean and free of damage and make sure your shutter speed is not too fast and that you give the flash enough time to charge.
Feel free to post some photos in the photo sharing subforums, as well
