That was full manual. Try shooting in aperture priority for a while (AV) Leave the iso on auto too. Just while you get started

I still get emails through Gmail too. I think its just that you need to have a Yahoo account /email to start a new Flickr. You'll need a tripod for doing pretty much any long exposure shot. If it's dark enough though you can get shorter long exposures without a filter by making the f number go...

What lens do you have? Just a kit lens? 18-55? To achieve a blurry background you need to bring your f number down as low as it will go (shooting using AV mode on the dial) but you'll need a decent distance between the subject and background for a decent amount of but. The 50mm 1.8 is...

Cheers Ben.

Another Arrows shot that I found this evening. 8 not 9 by A_Cro, on Flickr

Well, that comparison says the Note wins the first few but seems to favour the Z3 towards the end. Very little in it, depending how you use your phone. I must have missed it when you said you were considering a Note. My mate has a Note 2 and its big. A lot bigger than my Nexus 5 but the dual...

Z3? Have you seen one yet to have a look? They aren't out until the end of the month and is the only phone that is being touted to go head to head with the new iphone unitl the new Nexus comes out. Its a pretty impressive specced phone. Better spec than the M8 or the G3. You must have got it...

Cheers Tony. Looks a nice place for a misty morning shot.

Another Red Arrows shot from a few weeks ago. Black Arrows by A_Cro, on Flickr And one from yesterday morning. Morning steam by A_Cro, on Flickr

I'm sure if you asked on here you'd get better advice and it wont cost you a penny. What do you want to acheive? Just getting off Auto? What do you want to take photo's of? Any particular style? Ask questions on here before spending £75. Chuck that towards a 50mm 1.8 if you can.

I agree about not needing expandable memory any more. Why do you need more than 32gb? I've got my Nexus 5, have never ran out of memory with it but I do back up my files to my computer plus to Google drive/ G+ Gally, if you dont want pure Android and want the very latest then look at the Z3/ Z3...

But it's Apple... Its innovative, like widgets in ios couldn'tgiveafuck. I know of a lot of people who are going from Apple to Android and not one who is going the other way. They might have a nice looking, slick operating phone but it's miles behind with a lot of things imo.

Is this all online Multiplayer or can you do the campaign on your own? I like the look of Evolve too which is all online by the sounds of it.

I'm usually quite polite [emoji5]

Have they finished the installation now Jay? Off to London end of October and planning to go there. The Mrs has bought one of them already.

Please and thank you... I'll set up a new account later then I think. I have 15 days off from Monday to chuck in to some game time! 16v_er might be interested in this?

Dig it out :cool:

Yup. I'm liking the new browser. Does seem a lot faster too.

He's not a beginner, had a decent setup for a while before selling it iirc. II think I'll be going the same setup soon, deals to be had.

I've printed from my 550d and the images have been fine. I've only printed to 20x16 inches though. I suppose it depends how big you want to to print to.

Some lovely shots recently on here. I've just got back from Festival number 6 in Portmeirion. Absolutely fantastic venue for a festival, hopefully they will be back again next year. I didn't take my camera due to reading that any cameras with detachable lenses could be confiscated and with...

Yes. Its been pushed back a couple of weeks though so the didn't have any in store. Looks pretty good from the images though and the write ups seem to think it'll be pushing the new iphone for top phone.

The wife went in to upgrade today but she's going to wait until September 22nd (I think) and get the Sony Z3 mini (the standard one is a bit too big for her) . Very good spec of it and unlike most other manufacturers, the mini isn't a downgraded version (well, mostly)

Yeah I've seen a lot of shots with your lens but not many with either of the others. Also read that as the 2.8 non IS and the 4 IS are similar prices, it's best to go for the 2.8 Decisions... I'll pass on your comments to her. I'm just saving for a 6d & 24-105 f4 that I've seen.

Well I should be getting my laptop calibrated which will do for now. I might take my old monitor and see if I can calibrate that at the same time. Now, another question for you guys... The wife is looking at a new lens. She has a couple of friends ask her to do some weddings for them (I'll be...

Cheers Ben, It was lovely today. Summer seems to be back.... For now!

One from this morning Outbound by A_Cro, on Flickr

Cheers. I think I'll see if the docu is still on I-Player as a few people mentioned it yesterday and it sounded pretty good. Another one from yesterday. A bit tight to the right of the shot though. Proud to be British by A_Cro, on Flickr

Nipped to the local airshow. Red 3 was missing due to his wife being in labour - Here's the adopted formation to replace the traditional Diamond. Missing Red 3 by A_Cro, on Flickr

Looks an interesting technique! Took this yesterday using the Sigma 17-35 2.8. Not a bad lens for star photography but I'm not convinced of it as a walkabout lens, especially as the aperture blades are stuck. Canal side landscape by A_Cro, on Flickr
