What did you upgrade from? Was there a notable difference? I think I'll probably just get the i5. They seem to overclock pretty well too from what I have read.

The Incipios do a good job of scratching the phone too though. When I find the inclination to do it, I'm going to stick the invisishield on it.

I have decided to upgrade my C2D to some quad core goodness, but really cannot see any reason to go for the i7 over i5. I use the PC to play games, and have a 4870 1GB card which will not be upgraded for the time being. I also need to edit large photos (21MP) and full HD video files...

What are these? There is one local to me and I quite like the look of them.

A mate of mine has been using a N900 for a couple of weeks now and is happy with it, aside from the battery life. It does look like a nice but of kit, but is certainly chunky.

My holiday broke mine.... can't really get back into it now. :D

The latest bunch look okay to me in terms of sharpness but it is hard to say without seeing the 100% crops. It looks like you had tricky light to work with too, cloud infront of the sun kills colours. You can sort this out with a bit of fiddling in Lightroom or Photoshop in a few clicks...

^ Really nice shot. Would make a nice desktop wallpaper. I managed to snap the head off my tripod just before I went on holiday so will have to buy a new one before joining in the fun. :D

I'm going to have to call a timeout on this. I am on holiday in the arse end of the world and they have not been connected to civilisation yet. Look forward to seeing peoples shots next week when I have a connection quicker than 1k.

Cheers for the info. I really need to do some more reading up on flash work, I get fairly inconsistent results!

My PSU would melt at the thought of running another card! Upgrade time again soon I think. :D The only question is i5 or i7... but that is for another thread.

I'd be interested to see the benchmark differences.

Damn.. no exif! What sort of settings do you use for a shot like the first and second one? Normal exposure and rear curtain sync?

Love the zoo ones, especially the shots where you can't really tell it is a zoo.

I went for the 1.4. It as better focussing and build quality. The Sigma f1.4 gets the best reviews though, but it is more expensive.

Thanks guys!!!! :) Nice review Ian. :D

Impressive noise (or lack of) at 2500! I had to use 3200 & 6400 the other night in desperation and was pleasantly surprised how they came out considering but I think your D3 would be better.

Really let down by that rear window. Not a bad looking car overall, once you get past the badge.

Gorgeous. The end.

Like the cheeky domo. What lens is he hiding behind?

One of those things when you think, "I wish I had thought of that". A great series.

You will need to speak to the IT dept. They would also have to have active sync on (I think) for it to work too.

Cheers Ben. That's the one upside of the sunrise/ sunset being later/ earlier. It was stunning yesterday though, hence the pic, even if it was through a dirty window on the 12th floor.

20 & 21

I bought an external case with an e-sata connection. It is loads faster than USB and saves hours on my backups. When you get into TB territory, it is definitely worth getting e-sata if you are actually going to be transferring 1TB of data regularly.

LOL!! Genius!!! :)

It cannot find my phone, which is a fairly common problem at the minute looking through the forum. itunes is okay to use, I just wish that it could monitor media folders and update itself automatically when new songs are added outside of itunes.

NP.

Loving that last shot! Whenever I see the words "Bikini shot" I always get a mental image of this.. really spoils it:
