    Just made a list...

    My opinion? Thats a f*cking a cheap list, wish mine was like that lol Only thing I'd not bother with is the Color Filter Set unless you really know your stuff, had my external flash nearly 2 years and never had a moment where I thought I'd need filters but I'm just a hobbyist..

    Anyone used Sigma 24-70mm DG Macro?

    For what camera? There is a new HSM version coming but imagine it'll cost a fair but more but will auto focus on entry level Nikons.. Only held one in Jessops and wasn't to impressed with the feel on the zoom ring but then I'm comparing it with far more expensive lenses. Would have been tempted...

    Graduation today.

    Nice shots, I'd be happy with them, specially without flash. Lent my dad my 350D + 85mm f/1.8 at my graduation, needless to say it was all blur when I got the camera back! p.s. looking at the shot with the pro, looks like is possibly using a cheap ebay Cactus trigger, hard to tell with the b&w..

    Buy faster glass? Otherwise get the flash, makes a huge difference to indoor shooting & outdoor..

    Some crimbo holiday snaps..

    Thought Id share and look for feedback, take at either Virginia Waters or Worth Matravers in Dorset, well worth a visit just for the Square and Compass pub :) Larger sizes in flickr.. http://www.flickr.com/photos/pete-eos/3166588558/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/pete-eos/3165750819/...

    Pics too dark

    Tried resetting the camera? Could you have exposure compensation turned on?

    Pics too dark

    Either adjust the brightness of the LCD on your camera or learn how to use a histogram, assuming your camera can display one.. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image_histogram http://www.luminous-landscape.com/tutorials/understanding-series/understanding-histograms.shtml...

    400D - Cheapest/best place to buy.

    http://stores.ebay.co.uk/Canon-Outlet_Canon-EOS-SLR-Cameras_W0QQcolZ4QQdirZ1QQfsubZ3QQftidZ2QQtZkm If he goes body only, on a budget the 18-55 IS version is probably the only cheap lens worth getting.

    PIcasa vs flickr?

    hmmm I currently upload my images and tag them using Adobe Lightroom and use that to find old images, is Picasa any good for archiving?

    noob q - canon firment sigman lense

    Your camera accepts both EF and EF-S lenses, EF is just the name for the mount. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canon_EF-S_lens_mount p.s. probably worth spending a few more notes for the APO.

    50mm 1.8 or swap to a 1.4??

    For Canon yes but one is built like a McDonalds happy meal toy and the other has Micro USM that can full time manual focus :)

    50mm 1.8 or swap to a 1.4??

    Buy the 1.4 because you want better AF and build quality, I wouldn't expect a noticeable change in IQ or massive difference in DoF.

    Sigma 24-70 f2.8 macro or canon 17-85 IS?

    In that case you look good to go. Food for thought.. if I was using a lens just to shoot kids I'd buy my 85mm f/1.8 back, if you want a lens that gives you a wow factor from the camera that can shoot in low light and create dramatic portraits, this is the one...

    Camera bag for 450d, Reccomendations please.....

    Been looking at one of these, note its now called the Muffin top. What do you want, shoulder or back pack, I've got a Mini Trekker AW which is great for carrying everything, tripod included and going on trips but its naff and over intruding for just taking out a few bits, really puts me off...

    Sigma 24-70 f2.8 macro or canon 17-85 IS?

    What he said. I'd rather look at the Tamron 17-50 f/2.8 but download and run ExposurePlot to see what focal lengths you use the most. http://www.snapfiles.com/get/ExposurePlot.html
