    Canon 100D or CSC/Small DSLR

    How about a Fuji system? I've heard good things about them. They do a fixed 35mm or a version that has interchangeable lenses The fixed (x100) can be had for around £575 (cheaper that what the d600is body is going for)

    Couple more from Cornwall. Long exposure at Mevagissey, shot rested on my camera strap as I didn't take my tripod with me that day! The rock by Aaron, on Flickr 6 shot panoramic, attempted stitch. The Zenitar 16mm lens has a lot of distortion which made this a right ball ache! Should have...

    Use manual focus. Auto focus will not work in the dark. As for photoshop: File>New> (when the info screen comes up, change your pixel area to 1050x1400) Open image. Save blank image and name it Template. Whenever you need to use this, open Template and then open your preferred image as a...

    @Hans. Having a quick look, this seems ok for Mac http://www.ironstarmedia.co.uk/resources/osx-image-resizer/ I only know the photoshop way but there should be a few online places if it's just one or two images. The one I linked says it can do batches so might be better. @Geddes The easiest...

    Very quick edit from the 50mm 1.8 from Cornwall. I have a massive panoramic to try to put together this week from the 50 plus one from the 16mm. Distortion aplenty! TwentyEight/FiftyTwo - Dust by Aaron, on Flickr

    Nipped down to the beach last night. Could have stayed there all night if I didn't have things planned for this morning. Milky way down Cornwall is ridiculous. Next time we come I'm planning to drive down further south. Taken at Porthpean beach, 50mm 1.8, 15 seconds iso 4000 I think. Edited on...

    You should be able to get an older version of lightroom (not that different really, just slight tweaks) . Search for LR4, you should find it easy enough and you can find the serial number in youtube. It's one of the easiest programs to find and install as it doesn't dial in for the serial...

    Yeah, just looking online because I was doubting myself, it looks like it might not be on your camera. Maybe just try shooting 200 if you notice the shutter speed dropping.

    Unless you are shooting sports, there is no need for more than the 11 focus points imo. The 7 is predominantly a sports photographers first choice camera over the 5mk2 and the 6, simply due to the focus points and the extra reach you get from the crop factor. The 5mk3 is obvious a good choice...

    Try using auto iso if you are a bit unsure, you should be able to set the max iso if you don't want it going too high, so maybe max 800.

    The "Ive taken a pic and I kinda like it" thread

    Only hand a look at a couple of them but you must have kept your iso at 100. Did you use a tripod for the landscapes? If not, they will be the reasons for lack of sharpness as they are 1/15th of a seconds exposure I think. If you did have it on a tripod, then I'm not sure, maybe a focus issue...

    [PS4] Uncharted 4: A Thief's End

    60fps has been scrapped though but that's not going to stop me getting this. I'm hoping it's better than 3, I was a bit disappointed with that tbh. Number 2 was superb though.

    I'm getting more used to the driving controls although they're not great, especially when you have to chase people/ do missions. I do quite like the joker in it though.

    Got the email, I'll have a look at it in a bit. I don't have IS on. Maybe try focusing on something that will stay there, like the rock or whatever foreground interest there is.

    Soft as in not sharp, not fully in focus. I'll fire over my email via pm, you could try sending it over that although some have file size limits.

    I have my camera on standard or a custom monochrome setting, but only so I can see what it will look like in mono the way I edit. They only apply when you are shooting jpeg as far as I'm aware and have no effect on the raw setting but I could be wrong. I'll have a look at your image later when...

    I assume you are talking about the water near the bottom of the frame? It's 100% down to the ND filter and nothing to do with the editing, in my opinion. It's a 2 second exposure so you will get most of the movement. If you had left it for 30 seconds you would have just had a flat sea. It's a...

    Well I have found a small glitch with one of the AR challenges in the Batmobile. You have to drive towards sets of drones, clear them out and go to the next set, repeat and go to a third set. There are markings on the ground to follow but between the 2nd & 3rd sets, the markings disappear. I've...

    Yeah sorry, its a f2.8-16, 16mm. Full manual functions though but that's fine for the purpose that I got it for.

    New lens turned up today. Very surprised with the delivery speed, just over a week from Moscow. £99 & £17 p+p. Its not much bigger than a 50mm 1.8, not that heavy, very smooth operation of the aperture ring. Looking forward to testing it out properly at night. TwentySix/FiftyTwo - Soviet Glass...

    It's good. Nothing super special jumping out at me at the moment though, probably about 2 hours of game play so far and 6% completed. Graphics are good. Batmans voice is annoying. Batmobile controls took a while to get used to.

    Wife went on an Owl experience day today so I tagged along with the camera. Only used the 70-200 really which was a bit tight a lot of the time indoors. Got this though which I quite like, just wish the eyes were a bit sharper and I'd got the legs in. Ruffled by Aaron, on Flickr
