The only time that I will use my phone if I have my camera with me is to do a panoramic or photosphere. I think some phones can produce great images though and they will only get better. As for shooting on film, I think a lot of people still use this method because is looks better. Portraits...

It pisses me off when you play by their rules and still get kicked! Was on a 500% tdm on canals the other day, no shotguns, c4 or semi auto snipers. I hardly use them anyway yet was killed by spas12's, dao's and SKS loads. Then I got a kick and ban from admin. It normally doesn't bother me too...

You had anymore thought on this? A mate is after a wide angle, so if you have a price in mind I'll let him know.

I'll definitely get this. Gutted that its being delayed though. Need to find something else to play soon. BF3 is getting on my nerves.

I have £100+ worth of 77mm filters from my old Tamron so I thought I'd go for the Sigma as the Tonika is 67mm iirc. Plus slightly more zoom range and 75% of my shots will be on a tripod so the low f number wasn't a major point, although it would be nice.

Yeah I'd try on here or maybe at a local camera shop as a trade in of you can. London camera exchange offered me a decent price on my 30d but I used it as part of my trade in for the sigma instead. EBay was my last resort, luckily I didn't end up with it on there. Good luck though with the...

I got my sig 10-20 a couple weeks back, mint but no box, was up for £299 in local camera shop. You might get £330 on eBay maybe? I had a go of that Tonika and its a lovely lens. There was an ex demo for £420 I think at the same place.

This is a possible entry although I have a few more ideas to try if I get the time. Cave orb by A_Cro, on Flickr

I can vouch for this. I've just got the same for my 550d and its hardly been off the camera. I would like to get a 17-50 f2.8 that I've seen recently but can't justify spending at the moment even though its a bargain at £300!

Have a look at snapseed, I've got it for Android and it seems decent, should be out on iPad too

Pretty much what Dan said although I should have bumped the ISO up a bit more though or left it for longer and illuminated the foreground.

Went out last night to get some star trails and general night sky pictures, so headed out a bit earlier to get some sunset shots too. I'm fairly happy with this one, should have maybe exposed the rock a bit more though. Incoming tide by A_Cro, on Flickr Then the sky didn't clear at all...

Took this the other day. Some may have seen it on the news about the Airbus wing carrier breaking its moorings in the strong winds last week. Its sat on the sand banks now until they can move it. They will try on the 11th Feb and if they have no luck then it might not be until September when the...

Congratulations Tyler. Nice open theme this month so hopefully a decent number of entries.

Went out yesterday to get some waterfall and long exposure shots. I swear the rain was following us! Finally headed back to the coast and the sky was nice but I wish we had got there half hour earlier. A couple from Betws-Y-Coed during the brief dry spell. Betws arches by A_Cro, on Flickr...

Try to get booked in on the shard, looks great for evening pics of the city. The eye and along the Thames are good too. As is the underground. There's loads I want to go back to. Weather was a bit crap last time I was there

Nav free seems decent. Can't stand the android voices.

The deer shots are amazing! Took this this morning. Loving the 10-20 now! Pilot by A_Cro, on Flickr

Traded in my old 30d and a couple of lenses for a Sigma 10-20 today. Nipped to the beach on the way home to have a quick play. Started raining and the wind was horrible so I didn't do much but I quite like this shot. Not sure if i prefer the colour or b&w edit. 10-20 at Colwyn bay pier by...

Popped up to Cwm Idwal again today. Bloody bitterly cold. Cwm Idwal in the snow by A_Cro, on Flickr

ENTRY Baahh by A_Cro, on Flickr

Good idea. You have some cracking shots so I will be keeping an eye on this. Are you shooting a different spot on the canal each week or the same one so you can see the changes throughout the year (maybe a final time lapse video?)

I managed to get a few long exposures of the sea the other day without a filter. I had ISO at 100, f18 I think and the shutter was a few seconds. Done the job. I'll upload them when back home and double check the settings.

The 10-20/22 is the next lens I am after. Just need to free up some funds for it. Found one second hand for around £300, New they are around £380 (for the Sigma) Good thing about it is the thread size is the same as I have now so all my filters will cross over. Have also considered a...

That's nice ^^ Took this yesterday, came out well I think. Had to crop it a bit though as there were a couple of buoy's which I struggled to clone out. Times changed by A_Cro, on Flickr And this one which I had taken my ND filter off, well over exposed but quite like it. Over...

Couple of shots from my way home today. Snow doesn't seem to be sticking around here though :( Slight dusting of snow by A_Cro, on Flickr Cold out there by A_Cro, on Flickr

Did you download just the cs2 file? The serial number was right next to it. There should have been two files, one Windows, one Mac and the relevant number next to each one.

Took this last bight. Pissed off that I must have knocked the focus ring as the church isn't right. Also thought I was getting the north star in shot when I was setting up. Wider lens needed, so will be selling my other camera to fund I think. Will be going back soon. Pretty cold last night...

Cool. They look bloody good anyway. Nice RT by prof Brian Cox too.

Nice Scott. How long was the exposure on the milky way ones? Quite a bit of movement in the stars I see. I was reading a thread which tells you the best shutter speed for capturing static stars (I assume it all depends on how your camera copes with the high ISO though.. I think its 600 divided...
