    What DSLR for 400 squids

    Uk retail, you'll probably find the cheapest here.. http://www.camerapricebuster.co.uk/ Before you buy either, go to shop and play with them. I'm suggesting Canon as I'm biased as it JJ suggesting Nikon. Only you can decide which feels best for you..

    Manual focus, then take a spoon or stick or some sort or pointy thing and place it in the water, move back and forward until appears sharp. Remember where that spot was, aim for it and spray and pray...

    What DSLR for 400 squids

    350D Official re-furb for sub 200. Maybe even get a 30D for sub 400. http://stores.ebay.co.uk/Canon-Outlet Then the rest is up to you, depends what you want to shoot. Want a cheap prime add the 50 f/1.8 or with the saving consider the Sigma 30 f/1.4 or Canon 50 f/1.4 Want flash, get the...

    Lol exposed, so no point in me adding but what the hell, try those images with a darker backdrop and more shadows. Also DSLR's are capable of producing lots of noise but this is a result of poor exposure by the user.

    Downloading Illegal Material

    I buy CD's when I have some great respect for the artists, random songs nah. Just to add to the debate I think software piracy has a positive impact for some major players and they won't clamp down on the little guys. Take Photoshop; when non-professionals get hold of this as kids and use it...

    Camera or Lens?

    I'm not sure that's a big enough jump in body to be worth it, get an awsome f/2.8 VR zoom lens! D50 to D200/300 maybe.

    New camera.

    Get the kit lens and learn what you want to buy as you learn but remember only AF-S lenses will auto focus so if you get into wider primes your fooked unless your happy to manual focus. Learn a little about focal length.. http://www.tamroneurope.com/flc.htm Read this and the Photography sticky...

    Canon Lenses

    Endless choices but I'd say the 100 f/2.8 Macro is the best bet, internal focus make it that little bit better than the Sigma 105..
  17. U

    Canon Lenses

    Use the Canon 85 f/1.8, its a good focal length for portrait shots on a crop camera.. its also quick to AF so great for low light sport, even shooting your pets down the park.. p.s. if you want to save money on Canon/Nikon gear drop this guy an e-mail, he's cheaper if you go outside of eBay...

    Lens for Nikon D40...

    If your after a lens for holiday snapping and don't have a need for speed or amazing image quality then the Sigma 18-200 OS or Nikon 18-200 VR would be ideal, just a fair bit more costly..

    Canon Lenses

    If your serious about low light stuff look into the Sigma 30 f/1.8, better build HSM etc, mind I use the 28 f/1.8 USM but the Sigma appears to be sharper in the center in many reviews.. (found 50 to long for indoor work... just missed it as well, sold it cheap)

    Lens for Nikon D40...

    For the money there won't be much better, f/5.6 isn't going to set the world on fire but that VR is a nice addition, should be nice and light/compact as well... depending on how serious you are, or how much you need to top action saving lots more for a 70-200 f/2.8 of some sort might be worth it...

    Canon Lenses

    Deffo shift the canon 20-35mm usm, 4mm at that range is nothing, 10-14mm is massive but not 20-24.. Try the POTN Market Section.. http://photography-on-the.net/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=14

    Nikon D40 or Canon 400D...?

    Sounds like your lenses will work, check they are EF mount though. Thats a very good price, much better than UK prices.. http://www.camerapricebuster.co.uk/ The only place you might get it cheaper is from the official Canon Refurb Store.. http://stores.ebay.co.uk/Canon-Outlet 350D's...

    Canon Lenses

    Yup tis mine, do need to work on its realism but my cheap Cokin grey density filter left a nasty colour cast. Its since been modestly tone mapped in photomatix (HDR) and had its contrast adjusted in CS2. Might have a play again in a bit...

    Canon Lenses

    I think the 70-200 f/2.8 would be a little short, might be fast but it won't have the reach, afraid the 300 f/2.8 IS is the only better option ;) p.s. :hail: 10mm..

    Depends what are you shooting, how much do you need to stop action? F4 IS vs f/2.8 non-IS?

    hmmm what next... 10-22 Sigma 30 f/1.8 or Canon 28 f/1.8 85 f/1.8 430EX flash Tripod if you you have the time to stop and shoot, more water movement etc... 70-200 F4L was buy-able at under 300 with the rebates on but to be honest I don't use mine as much as I thought I would... Depends what...

    what site to use to upload DSLR pics??

    hmmm Deviant Art may be worth a look, its aimed at more art based stuff than file sharing but it can be used and abused to work this way. You can upload full size images, choose the display size and let other people download the files..

    Tripods for SLR

    Use a Velbon 250R for landscape shots, can hold a 350D + 70-200 F4 + 430EX flash. Not very portable though unless you've got a camera bag that holds a tripod easily. Picked it up for about 55quid...
