    New walk about lens - Nikkon 16-85

    I wanted a decent good quality walk around lens and previously had the 18-200. This was a very versatile lens, but had a few down points. I then managed to pick up this 16-85 fairly cheap and first impressions are very good. Its fairly light, the zoom is nice and tight and it has full time...

    Bye bye D40, Hello 450d!

    Well I was getting fed up with the lens choice, the price of primes and the lack of focus points on the D40 so I went to Jessops and gave a few cameras a go! Tried the D90, but it was a little expensive for me, then tried the D80 and was fairly impressed, followed this by the 400d and the...

    The Harbour at night

    Went for a walk down through the harbour last night, tried a few shots hand held but even at f1.4 there was not enough light for decent shots, so I used a few walls and set the shutter to 20 and 25 seconds (my first time at trying this). The street light was hand held though.

    Nikon D40 + lots of extras - £795

    Probably not the best time to be selling this due to the big old credit crunch! Most people probably think its expensive, but this set up will cost £1200+ to buy. I am not splitting anything - its all needs to go as a package...

    An evening stroll at Beachy Head...

    Was a rather creepy yesterday evening, think we were there just after someone has jumped off the edge or a boat might have come aground (Beachy Head has one of the highest suicide rates in the UK). There were police and an ambulance and although we couldn't get close you could see the lifeboat...

    Nikon Owners - which flash?

    I currently have an SB-400 but considering the SB-600 as the 400 has its limitations. Plus the SB-600 matches your zoom level. Anyone got or used the SB-600??
