More from work. I've not been out anywhere else with the camera recently! Work and the little one is all I seem to use if for. Hopefully get the Blood Moon on Monday night though. ThirtyNine/FiftyTwo - Into the rain by Aaron, on Flickr Dee Sunrise by Aaron, on Flickr

Keeps slowing down lots. I've cleared cache, reset phone etc and no better. Completely crashed the other day. Took ages to turn off. Restarted it yesterday and had a 30% drop of battery when I turned it back on

Small battery. Any specs on the 5P or are they going to be similar. My Nexus 5 is dying now and my contract ends in November. I'm going to see how close I am to getting a OPT before I go and get another contract I think but if I go the contract route it will be for this or possibly the G4...

Love that sunset one Mark

The new Nexus (2 versions being made, one LG, one Huawei) is due out soon which if I don't get any luck with the OPT I'll have a look at. If not, the LG G4 is supposed to be a cracking phone. Not sure what Sony's latest offerings are, I think it's just an updated Z3. I'll never buy a Samsung...

Looking forward to seeing the shots

Image stabilisation off. Try turning on mirror lock to reduce any more movement (although it won't make much of a difference) How sturdy is your tripod? If it's a £10 special then it will be useless in anything more than a fart of wind. Shoot f8+ and I'd look through live view and manual...

One from a visit Surf Snowdonia today. Need a longer lens! ThirtyEight/FiftyTwo - Surf by Aaron, on Flickr

Even with bad weather you should be able to get some decent shots. Have a good trip. Look forward to seeing your shots.

Last minute decision to grab sunset tonight. ThirtySix/FiftyTwo - Sundown by Aaron, on Flickr

Nice Matt. I've looked at free lensing recently. I've been trying to get ideas as me and the wife are shooting a wedding in December for a friend. I'm hoping the weather is decent but with some snow as it's at a castle. Just need to practice some flash shots as the day light will be minimal.

I don't think I'll bother with 1-3. I've just got Hardline, Star wars is due soon and there will be other games to keep me going until the new one comes out. Plus, I replayed them all last year on the PS3. Won't be that much of a change to the originals for me to play them again imo

Killzone 2 Modern warfare 2 The original Street fighter. Where there were 8 fighters instead of 74. The same with Mortal Kombat.

Megaman is on the PS store now. All games for £11.99 I think.

Yeah really nice editing there CJ. I'll check the rest of the album later

I agree it's really nice. The only thing I'm not keen on is the lights, would probably prefer them without the star burst effect.

I can't believe it's still £40 for premium. I got the game and premium for £40 iirc in a playstation sale but I think it was when Hardline was close to release.

That's another nice one Mark. You'll need a dull day where there's no definition between the horizon. Misty days work really well, or just grey days.

Yeah you have to be careful when doubling up. I've wasted 10 minutes on a 20 stop and it turned out black still. Never recovered anything from it. Sunrise is pretty unpredictable so you just have to go out and take the gamble. I've been out loads and not got anything from it. Least if you have a...

Nice that. I'd try and get down again for sunrise one morning when it's high tide and calm, Would get good long exposures there and possibly the reflection like you have on a small patch of the water.

This is just Lightroom. I should probably nip into photoshop and lighten the base of the turbine. Might do that in the future though. Before and after by Aaron, on Flickr

Everything looks alright I think from the exif. You haven't got a filter on there have you @eugegall? That could throw things off. Did you buy new or second hand? Shoot using AV at 10mm f/4. Then TV at 1/125th. Make sure iso is on auto. Then try each of the scene modes and full auto. All on...

@Geddes I just go by what looks right for white balance if I don't have anything to go from. You should try to find Lightroom 4. It will run on your pc, maybe a bit slow but it should work. The good thing about lightroom is that it is a non destructive programme, so you can go back to the...

I never noticed the noise on mine until this week when we changed furniture. It was sat on a big open TV unit and it was fine. Now it's in a fairly enclosed unit and making a right noise, think I'll have to shift it and sit it behind the TV on top of the unit.

This was a very short star trail. I really should have kept it going but I wasn't keen from. The preview on the screen. 36 lots of 10 seconds at f2.8 iso 8000. Pen Yr Ole Wen short trail by Aaron, on Flickr

Definitely the editing. The only reason I moved from my 550 was I predominantly shoot night time and the iso handling on the 6d is superb compared to the 550, plus my 17-35 would actually be that rather than 28-50 or whatever it works out as on crop. Spend a bit longer on your editing. I...

Correct. The sky won't be as dark as the glow from the moon will wash a lot out. Shorter exposures should do the trick. 10-20 seconds should be OK if 30 is too bright.

Moon is near enough full tonight @Geddes so be careful with your exposures if you are getting it in the frame. I usually Tey to shoot with it behind me as it will illuminate the foreground (location dependant of course)

If you want to send me a memory stick with copies of the ones you want done the most then pm me and I'll try and get something sorted for you. I'm going to be sat in a hospital for the next week or so so I'll have time.

After a quick look, it seems that this lens doesn't suffer distortion as bad as the offerings from sigma. Might be a good, cheap lens to go for then.
