    Entry Level SLR. Is this a good deal?

    Well we disagree all day long, but despite its apparant bad focussing system the K5 got a rare gold award from dp review: http://m.dpreview.com/reviews/pentaxk5 But back on topic did you get the camera? Get yourself a prime next! Pentax do quite a few inc some tiny pancake ones. Current...

    Photo books - professional

    Will have a look at Loxley. Photobox is a no no, they just don't do the quality or type of book we are after. Budget is circa £200-£300, photographer wants more but that involves his labour in putting it all together so trying to find places ourselves. Im sure anyone who has been dragged to...

    Entry Level SLR. Is this a good deal?

    I'm afraid I disagree with what's been said about Pentax. You can use lenses dating back to way back when and also, the current range of lenses is huge ranging from a good collection of primes to telephotos etc. Also, Sigma and Tamron make lenses too. Pentax gets dismissed too quickly. The k5 is...

    Photo books - professional

    We want to get a photo book done for our wedding photos. Our photography can do them and uses a couple of companies from Australia and America. They are costly but we want to get one done. Anyone done one before? Not talking boots or photo box etc. I have found a company in London called...

    Photo Printing

    Hey peeps, Any suggestions on where to get some our our wedding photos printed? Trying at home but our printer just does not cut it when it comes to colour reproduction. I know boots etc can do it but no idea who does the best quality.

    Entry Level SLR. Is this a good deal?

    Good buy that, K5 is a beast if you ever want a high level DSLR, plus you can use your existing lenses.

    Canon powershot G1X

    No doubt a great bit of kit but the following steers me away: Size - its massive for what is a high end compact Compact system cameras are more versitile and smaller Optical view finder may as well not be there - does not actually show what your shooting most of the time (same prob as most G...

    Entry Level SLR. Is this a good deal?

    Nothing wrong with Pentax, read a review of the camera here: http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/pentaxk100d Nothing to lose really, give it a go and if you dont like it then flog it for a profit on ebay!

    Pocket point and shoot - suggestions/opinions etc?

    Ixus 230hs is a great little camera for just over £100. Was genuinely impressed with its detail and low light ability.

    iPhone and network speed test

    Yeah that's purely speed test from my mobile connected to 3G. No wifi at home due to Sky being s**t slow and getting it sorted but should be installed and running by today apparantly!

    iPhone and network speed test

    Downloaded the speed test app just to see how quick/slow my phone/network is. I have nothing to compare my results with so no idea if my figures are average, low or high. What speeds are you getting? Network: Three Ping: 172 Download speed: 4.43mbps Upload speed: 0.67mbps

    How bad is yours? (iphone/ipad screen)

    Always had screen protection on front and Pinlo slice case. Few light marks by port, but would probably polish out! I did drop my phone in the loo last month but it is still working. Kind of thought it might have stopped working by now!

    Couple from our short Honeymoon break in the New Forest

    Sadly money ran out and we couldnt afford a proper honeymoon so we booked two nights in a hotel on lastminuite.com. We ended up in the Four Poster room (some of our friends rang up and said it was our honeymoon break so they upgraded us for free!), which was lovely. Was meant to be £249 p/n...

    4S 'my number' wrong after porting (OS 5.1 issue)

    Can't change it on mine. Can't edit that field anymore - used to be able too!! Seems I am not alone though: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3790390?start=0&tstart=0 Oh and I'm on 5.1.1 if that makes any difference!

    4S 'my number' wrong after porting (OS 5.1 issue)

    Anyone no any fixes: Ported my number to Three and now my phone displays 'my number' as the old pre-ported number. On IOS 5 you could change this manually or do the imessage/facetime on/off trick. IOS 5.1 has taken this feature away! Any tips?

    Olympus e-pl1, any good?

    Tis good, old model but IMO one of the better looking ones. You can get it new for £220 inc. 14-42 lens - will give you an idea if you think that it makes it a good deal for you or not.

    Nokia - on the brink of self destruction?

    I thought Blackberry may have continued success in the business market, but so many companies are now going down the iPhone route. Us (network rail) have just moved from blackberry to iPhones and they are proving to be a great asset to the company and helping more productive and safer work than...

    Samsung Galaxy S3

    I do like galaxy apart from its size! It's half phone, half tablet! I guess if you don't mind big phones it's pretty decent. Need to up the build quality though, the battery cover felt a bit cheap for such a high end phone.

    Recommend a non SLR digital camera.

    I know it's a lot of money, probably same price as one above, but the canon s100 is superb. Bigger sensor than most compacts, full manual controls and impressive features. Just google the reviews.
