    D40 - D80??

    Is this a worthwhile upgrade? What does the D80 do that the D40 can't? Apart from the internal focus motor of course. My set up would change from: D40 + 18-200 + Sigma 30mm F1.4 to D80 + 18-200 + Nikon 50mm F1.8 The sigma would have to go to make the extra cash for the D80 body...

    Sports Specific Lens

    I am after a lens that will be mainly used for Equestrian Photography. Ideally with some zoom, but the overall range is not a huge issue. I am getting it part funded so the total budget would be about £400. My first port of call is the Sigma 50-150 F2.8 HSM as its quick and auto focuses...

    w890i!

    Got a W890i this week, cracking little phone! Was going to get a 6500c but this won me over! metal casing, 2gb card, nice crisp screen, great video playback and very solid. Also.. very small... dimensions are better proportioned than the 6500 imo. Got the black version and so far so good!

    First attempt at Sports Photography - Cross Country Horses

    Well, I think my D40 did very well on Saturday, the weather was cloudy and was a little worried that the light + not so quick lens would come in to play. Overall I think the pictures came out well, this is the first time I have ever panned moving subjects. Opinions/Constructive Criticism...
