    Photo Stitching - DOF

    +1, I'm not really sure whats being achieved that can't be done in the camera.. its probably so subtle that its not worth doing IMO.. maybe its for huge prints? but a 5D + 85L/135L would produce a very similar image.

    Best Lenses

    Can't give a long explanation at the mo but check this.. explains well, apart from aperture the freaking size is a start! IS, USM, cost (especially with the price rises, bad time to be buying)! better glass elements etc...

    Best Lenses

    If your learning and on a tight budget get the 18-55 IS + 55-250 IS combo. Should be a great start for holiday snaps, then add the 50mm f/1.8, teaches you a lot about big aperture lenses. If the 18-55 IS isn't wide enough on your travels learn to photo stitch before you go. You don't need to...

    thinking of selling my 400d+grip+17-55

    look on eBay and http://www.camerapricebuster.co.uk/ and f*ck me prices have gone up, you could easily get back what you paid for the 17-55 if you sell it on its own, maybe more than you paid for it? Paid 580 for mine, now sells for 770+, you could start at 600-650 in good condition. The 400D...

    What tool, '97 Brake Calipers

    Big thanks guys, I'm an idiot and removing the two bolts was infact enough to get the caliper away! Just had to wiggle it!

    What tool, '97 Brake Calipers

    Thanks but afraid its a discs and pads job! Same still apply or does the pentagon have to go?

    What tool, '97 Brake Calipers

    thanks for the help so far! They are fronts, the shot it taken from inside the wheel arch looking outwards, you can see the top half of the caliper, bottom half is the same. The bolt at the top came off easily (was 14mm) but doesn't seem to have changed anything, seems like its the big ''allen...

    What tool, '97 Brake Calipers

    Hi, Trying to remove the brake calipers for my 1.4 1997 Clio Phase 3 but have got as far as getting the wheel off! Have tried metric allen keys but no luck, is it an imperial fit or a renault tool of some sort?

    this lens worth bidding on?

    Undercut the Canon xxxD range. Anyway if your after a value for money prime that will AF, look at the new AF-S 35mm f/1.8, looks fantastic. http://imaging.nikon.com/products/imaging/lineup/lens/af/dx/af-s_dx_35mmf_18g/index.htm http://www.camerapricebuster.co.uk/prod1013.html

    300V Lens on a 350D/400D?!

    If its an EF lens it will work.. which is very likely as the 300V has an EF mount... it won't have a similar field of view though, will be longer and not as wide on the digital body.

    Your 'worst' camera best pic..

    Simple concept, your best picture from your crappiest camera... not about the IQ but everything else... something you'd caught with everyday gear.. ..start the ball rolling with a shot of Wembley..

    A few from the New TZ6 (TZ7)

    That aimed at me? my 40D is going no where!

    A few from the New TZ6 (TZ7)

    Would like a decent p&s to accompany my 40D as well and this ticks a fair few boxes, would be hard to decide between this and a G10/IXUS 980 IS or SX10 but I think the optical zoom and price would win. That last picture is crazy!

    MTBing shots from Afan

    Took my rents p&s with me on a trip to Afan, decided a hydration bag was better than several KG's of camera and lenses! Wish I'd taken more Pano's to be honest, some stunning views to complement some awesome single track downhills... http://www.flickr.com/photos/pete-eos/3456997630/...

    Rugby

    Look up the custom function that moves focus to the rear * button, find it really helps for sport. Manual Mode, aperture f/5.6, Shutter above 1/600, preferably closer to 1/1000, balance the exposure with an appropriate ISO and Ai-Servo focus mode to track the players. Oh and I find shooting...

    Indoor Sport photos

    ISO 1600, 1/100, aperture wide open so f/5.6, then bring the shutter down until you get a half decent exposure or resort to ISO 3200 if have it or your shutter gets to slow. If that leaves you overexposing bring down the ISO or up the shutter depending on how much you want to freeze the action...

    Got the wedding date

    Second body? I'd not bother with the TC (not that I shoot weddings). It ultimately depends on your style but as a Canon shooter people generally use the 17-55 f/2.8 or 24-70 f/2.8L as their work horses depending on FF or crop. Whilst others choose to shoot with two primes like the 35L + 85L...
