    Yup, £12 profit! Take away delivery (luckily they have been local) and time actually taking the shot/putting the finished product together and you really don't make much. The frame is from a small frame maker in North Wales. It's pine but stained. I'm hoping to get a better price on some...

    I have sold a few prints over Facebook but haven't made much profit. I could if I used poor quality materials but my print cost me £13, Mounts were £5 and frame £20 (fairly cheap for the quality of it but I got a good price through my camera club). Add time to that for collection of prints...

    Nice Ricardos, I know exactly where that is. I snapped a quick shot on my phone as I didn't have time when I walked past to set up the camera but never went back.. Would make a good long exposure next time I go .

    Sorry, I made a slider with a rolling dolly, not a crane.

    I started making one for timelapse but it didn't work out right. It wasn't smooth enough, mainly to so with the motor. The dolly was alright but struggles under the weight of a DLSR. Need to look back into it this year as I want to sort a stepper motor and a timer.

    Because they can. @Matt_90 does wedding photography iirc. I think this is his site http://www.matthewlawrencephotos.co.uk/

    I went for a Manfrotto 190. It's weighty but it's very stable. I'll still be using my compact though sometimes.

    License to print money. I should have started doing wedding photography years ago. Or anything to do with weddings tbh.

    Some lovely shots there Piers. I need to get out and do some landscape this week while there's still a bit of snow left in Snowdonia.

    That seems an odd pricing structure to me, but I don't photograph weddings (well, not usually) Buy I can't see you getting a full package for under £800 - going on where you live. Assuming it'll be on the London price range. All I can say is do so research into someone, especially of they seem...

    Look on Tesco direct. Traveller pro compact. It's £25 on there. I used one for years before upgrading to my new one. http://www.tesco.com/direct/hama-traveller-compact-pro-tripod/210-4437.prd?skuId=210-4437&fromRV=true

    You could end up paying a fortune and having s**t pictures if you don't put some effort into researching. I'd find a few around your area and meet them. Ask for examples of the previous weddings they have done. There's a lot of different styles that people use. I know people who have paid 1500...

    The canon lens you first posted for the money is very good value. I used it for a long time while I had a crop body. The image quality is no different to the kit lens in my opinion, it just gives you a greater reach. You could probably get it cheaper though, I think I paid just over £100 for...

    BT TV

    With my current box, most of it (all of the free view non hd) is run off the ariel. The BT sports channels come through broadband as do all of the HD ones (you need fiber for them though according to the box I have)

    Battlefield 5: Hardline

    @gally You can have an outside view, press L3 iirc (on PS) not sure about xbox. I'm just thinking they have got to a point and thought f**k it. It's nothing like the BF of old and I doubt it will ever get back to that. I hope Ghost Recon is decent when that eventually comes out.

    Battlefield 5: Hardline

    I think BF4 started to draw the COD crowd tbh, mainly though due to how s**t the games were getting. I played BF4 for a while which was still full of bugs 6 months after release so I sold it. Having played the Alpha and now the Beta of this, I can say that I wont be buying it. Some of the game...

    Yeah, that's a different box to what we have. We don't have you view. I might give them a shout and see if I can get a new home hub and new box sent out.

    BT TV

    I've got it and only have usual broadband, so fibre isn't a must imo, although it is if you want HD. The box is alright, can be a bit buggy but it's pretty simple to use. I'm not sure about recording from a week ago though,unless that's a new feature in a new box? Or maybe a fibre option? Can...

    What happens if you are carrying around a tripod when you visit? Do you have to leave it somewhere? I spent a couple of days in Cambridge. The wife was on a course so jumped in the car with her. Free hotel and some time in a new city. Saves sitting at home on my own. Only gone through a few...

    Well I made a voting thread but it didn't get featured for a couple of days and overlapped the time to vote. You won one and Piers won the other iirc. I didn't know who was sorting the new ones out, it had been Fatty for a while, I thought he would make a new thread with the winners etc and sort...

    Samsung S5 software update to lollipop.

    Can you do it via the computer? Keis maybe? Although I remember that being utter turd (as with any Samsung software) Other than that, I'm not sure. Backup and reset then update? The s**t way to do it though.

    Does PS4/XBO have these features?

    Your smart TV will probably do the USB playback too so it would depend on what games you wanted to buy imo. The ps4 is supposed to be getting 4od (I just use my ps3 for that If I need to)

    I'd have a look at the Z3/Z3 compact over any Samsung tbh. Not as much bloatware either and it's a good 6 months newer iirc.

    The Alarm - Gathering 2015

    Went to a gig last night to watch "The Alarm". A local band who have a fairly big following. Got free weekend tickets for helping put some speakers out in the morning. Took my 6d with 50mm 1.8, 17-35 2.8-3.5 (didn't use much) and the 24-104 f4. Taken off my Facebook page. Quality somewhat...

    Brand New Dell laptop and connection issues to BT homehub

    I sometimes have connectivity issues with my Dell vostro and home hub 3. Im guessing it's a HH issue though as I had similar problems with my old Acer laptop. The PS4, Phone, tablet etc all stay connected with no issues though.

    Nexus 7 boot loop after upgrade

    Mine went a bit mental after the latest update but then sorted itself out. I left it on charge after I managed to turn it off and went beck to it a day later and it was alright. Might be worth trying that?
