What ND filter, if its a screw on you'll quickly want to throw it in the bin... I'd also go for a back pack unless you need v.quick access personally.

:clown: you kinda ruined that one!

Can Official Refurbs for the money... or second hand.. http://stores.ebay.co.uk/Canon-Outlet

FLOL

hmmmm true, well, yellow mugs are probably the cheapest part! depends what you shoot with now, at the end of the day a dslr with kit lens is going to be better than a point and shoot if your wanting high quality and don't need something compact. Just look at ukaskew, he doesn't need all the...

I'm weak lol p.s. do it fUbar :clown:

This forum will turn evil, very evil, you'll all end up in lens re-hab.

lol beaten to it!

Indeed, great for Batch processing, making borders etc..

lol what he said /\/\ ;) You need to shoot fully manual, make sure they all have the same white balance, make sure the camera doesn't move and don't let the light change. If your having photoshop issues I just added each layer one by one and did selective erasing..

450D will hit the streets soon....

Anyone got any to share? Here's my set that I've made up... http://www.mediafire.com/?0d2ynmxujl3 Original Tri-x B&W Film Cross Processed Film Dave Hill (Does the first two steps on the tutorial below, bad example, lacks the right lighting)...

Nah you gotta buy a 1 Series to get that kind of info from the camera, the only way to track it on the entry level stuff is for a Canon tech to find out or to keep the IMG numbers in order..

Try and find out what IMG_number he is on, if he's had 1 camera and 1 card it should indicate roughly how many actuations the shutter has done. Aside from that try and take a few test shots, see if the focus is accurate etc. If you want to save a bundle the 350D will be very cheap with the 450D...

Good pic wozzaa. dunganick - looking at the Ibiza picture it looks sharp around the door handle, just looks a little back focused. Same with the second one, it looks a bit soft but sharp where it says red fox, could be poor light or just the lens being shot at maximum aperture. You could try...

hmmm you shouldn't really see handshake at 1/500@300mm, post up some of the shots that went wrong, could possibly be miss focus? Are you using Ai-Servo?

To much spare time as a student! :clown: So yeah just playing around, if you can understand the relationship between ISO, shutter speed, aperture and how they change exposure your set...

IS stops hand held shake and helps with panning a little but it won't stop the motion of a car. The 55-250 won't help as its actually slower at the long end than your current lens, f/4.5 vs f/5.6 Are you shooting f/4.5 and ISO 1600 and still getting bad shutter speeds, say below 1/100?

Thanks.. The multiple exposures won't affect the image colour, I've posted below what these came out converted from RAW to jpeg with no fiddling. http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y167/BluePete85/DSLR/IMG_5735.jpg A quick contrast adjustment on the curves brought out the colours. Check some...

What are you shooting in low light, i.e. are you shooting moving subjects?

So now no one is home broke the tripod out. Dull light so figured I'd use a few cheeky tricks... Tea? More Tea?

Photomatix ftw.

hmmm just attacked the kitchen hand held natural light but my house mates are now home so err this is it for now lol I feel these go well together... p.s. great shots caeteez!

I'd say 3 pictures per person. Could do with having two threads. One to discuss, one to show case. I'm also again your view of the digital dark room but I'll play by the rules ;) Time to explore the new kitchen and finally break out the rig, good work on the challenge idea!

Got my rents this for X-mass, the macro mode amazed me, the lay out is also good but my 4 year old Sony DSC-P100 destroys it in auto using the flash, the 75 just blows everything out. I'd deffo recommend an IXUS further up the food chain though but then your getting closer to the G7/G9 prices...

Same here! Mind the 28 f/1.8 isn't so bad and the Sigma 30 f/1.4 gets good reviews if you don't want to spend 650 quid.. Back to what the OP asked, depends on your budget, the 17-55 f/2.8 IS would the best choice IMO. Failing that the Tamron 17-50 f/2.8 or if you can source it for a few more...

Goin on what Rasclart said your metering system might be very inaccurate, your best bet will be shoot in full manual if you have issues..

Canon A720 IS? http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/canona720IS/ By the time you buy memory, bag etc it'll come close to your budget... Has 6x zoom, with an average wide end and moderate long end. The IS may also come in handy. Only thing that puts me off is the batteries but get a decent set of...

/\ Mint! me thinks I want one now...

What you after, one for taking to clubs in your pocket or a larger super zoom/bridge camera? fully manual settings?
