    Sling Bag?

    Any recommendations? Going down to Cornwall in 4 weeks and want to take all my gear with me. After a fairly compact sling type bag I think. Needs to hold body, 17-50, 70-300, 50mm and few other bits in future such as flash, maybe a wide angle too. ​Trying to avoid anything too big or bulky.

    Why choose full frame?

    I have never taken that much interest in full frame, but when I was reading all the D7100 previews and reviews they compared it a lot to the D600. In some areas they said the D7100 was better, in others the D600. The difference in price of the D7100 and D600 body (if you get an import), is...

    Tamron lenses

    Any used or using any? Was looking at the 70-300vc as its getting better reviews than the Nikon 70-300vr. Also interested in the 17-50vc, and if my mental state goes in to overdrive the 24-70vc f2.8 just looks superb. It's a big heavy lens but I'm so tempted to blow my entire budget on one!

    Raynox DCR-250

    Anyone used one? A couple of people have them on their Pentax K5 II with some outstanding results (IMO). I know its cheating a bit, but they still seem quite crisp! This one is quite scary! Worth splashing £45 on for a bit of macro fun??!

    Sigma 24-70 F2.8 on a crop?

    Anyone used one on a crop sensor? I intend to get a 70-200 Siggy f2.8 in the future but looking at something for the lower range. I barely shoot wide so that will not be the problem. I know it uses larger filters, but anyone had experiance of this lens? Want a fast zoom, and a constant f2.8 is...

    Micro Four Third Users

    Do you find the m43 tricky for moving subjects? What's the CAF like as was tempted to try the G3 for some show jumping. Was looking at the G3 with 14-42 and 45-200, combined size was pretty small and would be easy to chuck in a pancake lens too. Just seen the G5 but actually don't like it as...
