I am new to the forum, however am a very experienced photographer.

If you have any questions about DSLR's (especially Canon's) then post them and I will answer.

That camera has no inbuilt flash. My old 1dx was the same - if you want a built in flash you will have to drop down to a consumer level camera. However my advice would be to upgrade to another pro body, and buy an external flash.

The 1d series are great - but the mark 2 went out with the dinasours.

I'd advice to stick to automatic (green square) until you understand what you are trying to achieve.

With regards to jpeg quality, always go for the best you can! So large. However if you have editing software you should go for raw if you can, as it allows you to correct many basic mistakes, which you will make as an inexperiences ameutere.

You are being silly now. This is a serious thread, to answer questions for those wishing to know how to shoot with a dslr.

A very good way is to use a long exposure and then move around.

However like the previous poster I feel you are trying to be humorous in a serious thread.

Sorry - after some of the stick I have taken on here, I don't want to link to it now. Maybe in the future I will.

I was a press photographer, and now work in weddings and portraits.

Yes I am new.

I offered to help any less knowledgable photograpgers. Nothing more and nothing less.

Do I think I am better than most on here? Well yes. Do I think I am the best... I don't know, maybe. However I have offered to answer questions relating to digital cameras, not provide my cv.

It would require an editing package which can deal with layers of opacity. But I'm no videographer, so i'ts best to ask a pro.

Why don't you just respond (sensibly) to threads rather than making an AMA thread?

I want to see your pictures, I don't care if you can google answers to peoples' questions.

I don't google anything. Please stay off my thread, as you are not the sort of person I want to help.

I hear some photographers can have a problem with attitude verging to arrogance. How do you deal with that?
