    It's cheap for a reason tbh. They aren't the sharpest of lenses but for £100 you aren't going to get great optics. If you want a macro lens, buy a macro lens. If you want a zoom, buy a zoom.

    Just natural light. It's quite noisy due to the fairly high ISO and didn't print as well as it could have (I used gloss instead of Lustre and didn't download the profile for it) Hopefully I'll get some more riding shots over the summer.

    Galaxy S8

    Same, I've reverted to stock on the Nexus 6p but wasn't sure what it's like the the Samsung devices hence suggesting SwiftKey.

    Call of Duty WWII

    From what I've seen (which is very limited) they are adding a carbon copy of operations. They are also adding a social hub area like Destiny. I hope it is decent but we'll see.

    Cheers. I don't know what the other entries were like but it's usually a pretty strong club. Second time in 4 years I've won this trophy though which is nice and I won another at the start of the season. I'd just like to have a bit of luck in external comps now.

    Why are my photos so dark?

    I'd check then as Lightroom is much better for photo editing if it's just corrections and not heavy editing. I think it's a basic package which includes PS & LR.

    I'm a member/on the committee of our local camera club. Every season we have 5 open competition's and two themes ones. The last night tonight and i was working late. Managed to pop in on the way home to be given the trophy for the presidents comp which was very surprising. This was the winning...

    Why are my photos so dark?

    Just for Photoshop or are you getting Lightroom too? Should be able to get both for cheaper than that.

    @optical try downloading SwiftKey, might be better than the standard keyboard.

    The "Ive taken a pic and I kinda like it" thread

    Picked up the wifes 105mm this morning before I headed to work. Bloody windy in the garden but I quite like this. Need to take this lens out with me in the future as it really is nice to use. Shades of spring by Aaron Crowe, on Flickr

    Traffic cops, crashed and burnt out 182

    It's a limit, not a target... First thing I thought, I wonder if there was a cs sticker melted on a window.

    The "Ive taken a pic and I kinda like it" thread

    That yellow coat really stands out in your shots @nius02 . Yourself and @Yanoo have been keeping this thread going recently. Hopefully I'll manage to get out with my camera soon. Not even had anything decent in work recently.

    Can you get a decent laptop for around £450?

    I've been looking at new laptops for photo editing. Cheapest I've seen (good spec, i7 etc are around £800+) My current Dell has lasted 4 years though and that is an i5 but over the time I've upped the memory and swapped out for an SSD. It's just starting to lose WiFi but it gets absolutely...

    Why are my photos so dark?

    It's just over £8 i think for Lightroom and Photoshop. 2 minutes in Lightroom would solve any of these issues and will make any cataloguing of images a piece of piss.

    Why are my photos so dark?

    Just dark? Not blurry? As TEG says, put some examples on here. My bet is you've knocked the dial and you are underexposing. Or possibly on manual and shooting way too high shutter speed/aperture. What settings are showing on the camera now? Where's is the dial on the left?

    Call of Duty WWII

    This might make me go back to the series. The last few games have been absolutely terrible imo. Like said above though I hope they don't throw some random s**t. Perks such as stealth bombers and other s**t that didn't exist in ww2.

    Battlefield 1

    I've hardly played recently. Had a few rounds on the new maps, got absolutely annihilated in every round, mainly to me being s**t but sometimes due to issues as said above. I wonder what the next title will be? WW2?

    My take on New York ...

    Good set there. Can't wait to get back (probably be 8 years or so when the little one will walk for long enough)

    LightRoom/ Photoshop request

    I did start a few last night then my laptop started beeping. I couldn't be arsed finding my charger so just turned it off.

    Photo help with a bridge camera

    There will probably be a few good videos on YouTube which will show you how to get the most out of the camera tbh. There will be better images taken with a shitty compact then there will be with a top of the range DSLR.

    Photography in London.

    Nice set. I'll have a proper look when I'm on my laptop. I need to do a London trip but to get the early train in and late one back it's close to £100 if booked well in advance.

    Photography Chat and Questions Thread

    Are you shooting video with that? Looks like a videographers tripod to me. I much prefer the option of getting low to the ground rather than a fixed low point like the one you have. As for the sorting, that sounds much like Lightrooms capabilities then. Tag, rate etc and batch process. I...

    Nikon? Not sure but I can't see photoshop not supporting Nikons Raw system. That would be a massive f**k up if so.

    Oh you'll need a ND filter to reduce the light coming in. That was using a 10 stop. You can pick them up super cheap but they will be pretty crappy and you'll have to do a bit of post processing to sort the colour cast if you shoot colour and not in black and white. I use Haida. Cost me about...

    Don't convert it to a JPEG before editing. That's the whole reason RAW exists, to get the most out of the picture. Photoshop has no issues with RAW, it'll just need updating if it does. Which picture mate? If it's a mountain/ space one then it'll be to the minimum light pollution in the area...

    The New Phone Thread

    I think he's talking about using Nova launcher to make it LOOK like a Nexus/Pixel. Last time I owned a Samsung you couldn't delete their apps so that's a mass of shite on to start with. If you want a Nexus/Pixel then just buy one and you'll get the updates first.

    Battlefield 1

    Went to play the new maps tonight. Forgotten that we had a power cut last week and i didn't set my ps4 back up before i went away on courses. 8gb download now. Think I'll be playing it tomorrow night now.
