I was bored yesterday so went for a drive around to see what I could find, which was not very much. Wildlife is pretty much ducks and swans around here, and it is not too easy to find either near anything idustrial. The closest I came was the below... a bird sat on the train power line...

Madness I tell thee!

No problems with mine at all.

I just got the same message tellign me that I had to format the disk before i could use it after waiting for ages! I will give it a shot. Cheers!

Photozoom pro. You will always loose quality when you blow up a pic though. Post it up and I will give it a go for you. How big do you want it?

I am trying to recover the data from a hard disk for my wifes work but am having some trouble... I have a handy IDE-USB cable with a power supply which can normally be used to open most hard disks but this one does not even register on the PC. I can hear it spinning up and the PC registers that...

There are a load of old WWII bunkers around here but they are pretty tough to get to and apparently surrounded by quicksand and who knows what else. I dont really fancy uncovering a mine on my wombles across the dunes...

I borrowed somebodies 350D today and took a load of photos with the 40D and the 24-105 & 18-55 then the 350D with 24-105 and 18-55. It showed that I was just looking too closely at the photographs and that the lens is fine. The 70-200 F4 L came out best of all though. It stands out from the...

5.5K's worth of glass down the pan..... ouch!

Nope, I learnt with a film SLR many moons ago, I had the 350D for a year and a half too so I am fairly confident that it is not down to user error... although you never know! I also took a load of shots at f8 and f16 last night with the flash to test it but did not get a chance to go through...

I'll take some pics this weekend. So far, the pictures just don't seem very sharp when you look at the 200% crop but maybe I am just expecting too much. I have tried IS on, IS off, manual focus, autofocus, low ISO, fast shutter and it doesn't seem to matter. I was just curious to know how...

Please can you do me a favour and post a couple of shots up with 100% and 200% crops at varying ISO's? They can be of anything. I think I might be pixel peeping too much but I just want to know that my camera is not under performing. Thanks!

Or buy an Ixus camera, as they do it for you. :D

IMG burn.

Canon EF 85mm F 1.8 USM... at a guess.

and there are reports of some of the sigmas having problems. If I bought one, I would want the dealer close by for any exchanges.... just for peace of mind.

127 shots with the flash not skipping a beat before I hit the cameras buffer. The flash not firing on full power which may have helped it along. Video is here

Yep.... superbly. I'll even do a video clip for you to see how long it keeps up for. I managed around 10 raw files yesterday at 6.5 fps without the flash missing a beat. Proper paparazzi style. lol

Nice case. ;)

I'd say the Canon but everybody has their own priorities and mine might not match your shooting: High-ISO image quality (better than the D40 according to various reviews) 9 AF points (vs 3 on the D40) 10 Megapixles (vs 6?) Automatic Sensor Cleaning Lens selection - You are limited on the...

Nice pics. Taken with the nifty fifty?

Nice shots. Really want to get my hands on an UWA now!

Could try updating the drivers but as it used to work okay, I dont see why this could have been changed... give it a shot anyway?

I'll have a look tomorrow. Just picked mine up today so should be able to do something. You can also download everything on the canon site for free... might be quicker? http://software.canon-europe.com/products/0010513.asp

I don't think that there is enough of a difference between the wide ends at 17 and 24 to justify it surely? The new version is 16-35 too I think. I definitely would not bother with the F4 but the F2.8 might be more useful. I dont know how second hand prices are in the UK but over here, second...

^^ Good taste sir. Planing on getting the 10-22 and a Sigma 30mm F1.4 before too long... I'll let my account recover from this lot first though. :D

Cheers guys. I am going to have a rummage around t'internet and see if I can find some ideas. I have come up with three different proposals so far and they have all been too corporate. Some of their competitor sites: here here and here

Went for a drive today and picked up these..... I had to force myself to leave before I picked up two other lenses too! I had enough explaining to do when I got home to the Mrs..... "I had to buy them, I saved 210 Euros by buying them!!".... I'm not sure she bought it but I am loving my new...

If I look back to how invincible I felt when I was younger, this really hammers it home that you are not!

I have been asked to do a website for a jewellery company. I am doing it as a favour for the owner of the company as they cannot afford a professional to do it. I am technically good enough to make a site with some flash banners etc but am completely lacking inspiration on how to make the...
