Re: PS4 pre-order Does it have voice recognition? I've not looked in to the camera.

Lol at all the slating because Sony have some unit failures. Can't wait until the xbox launch. Bet it has just as many faults but the majority on here will be silent. Any new tech will home some faults on launch. Anyone who thinks otherwise is deluded.

Samsung Nexus, Jelly bean. I've tried an app called themr but it's still in early days and has a few issues with it. Once they are ironed out though, it should be really good.

Liking that last one a lot. Got a few ideas for this. Going to try to get our later and give some of them a go.

Re: PS4 pre-order http://www.polygon.com/2013/11/14/5106186/uncharted-4-playstation-4 Uncharted 4 confirmed. No other details , just a voice over a map which could hold clues to the story. No confirmation that Nathan Drake will return either. Can't wait to see this on the next gen...

I imagine once Brazo has decided on a theme and told jenic

Really like the last two of the set of 5 Ben. Off to Chester Zoo tomorrow, hopefully the weather will be kind and the animals will want some pictures taking!

You'll probably find its sharpest at f/8. Apparently my Sigma 10-20 is sharpest there.

The higher the iso, the more stars you will see in your picture. If you have a low iso and a time slower shutter speed then you will start to see trials, which is OK if you are stacking, just not very good for static shots.

If you go somewhere without the light pollution and let your eyes adjust, it's amazing what you can see. In the right months, the Milky way is extremely visible, as are hundreds of satellites, comets and meteors. It's worth a long drive out somewhere on a clear night to see it to be honest.

I don't know how many of you use Google plus but I find it brilliant for following photographers. This image is from one of the guys I follow. America is the place for night photography!

They look good for your first attempt mate. What lens did you end up shooting with? I managed to get one of the milky way on Saturday, wasn't great and had to bring it out a bit in light room but you could see it fairly clearly with the naked eye which was surprising in November.

The Mrs has a 50d and it's cracking. Better ergonomically than my 550d and could be had within your budget. I nearly went for the 60d but thought I'd use the video option (which I have done, twice!) I'm probably going to try to upgrade to a 7d next year. Not sure if can make the jump to...

I know Google+ has a backup system for photos. I'm not sure if you'd have to go to the play store and re-download your apps. I need to check about contacts and messages too.

If it's crop it only works on then you won't be able to use it with an XD camera (apart from the 7D) The XX and XXX ranges are all crop so should be fine. What are you planning on upgrading to?

Can't you just back it up to Google? That's what I'm hoping to do when I upgrade from my Samsung Nexus.

Anyone playing this? Picked it up this morning, not amazing but I wasn't expecting much after AC3. Will give it a proper run through this week though. Game have promised a £40 trade in value for it though which is OK. Can't help think that I should have gone for BF4 instead but wanted to...

Prince of Persia was better originally tbh.

Meant to post in here earlier regarding 500px. First time logging in for a long time today and yeah, the layout is pretty horrible. The old layout was perfect really. Hope they take things on board and revert to the old style. The same as Flickr, they have it good and then they ruin it...

I think I'll trade this in tomorrow. Not played it for a while so may as well put it on my GAME card or put it towards AC4 to keep me going until the PS4 turns up. Online bored me was was just full of glitches when i finally got a game!

I've got an old Vivitar 28mm f2.8 that I use now and again. Think I only paid around 20 for it and probably 20 for the Canon fitment adapter. Should start using it more as it's a fairy good lens. Will also look at some other Vivitar ones too I think maybe some wider ones if I can get them...

Very nice Brazo. Really like the "Cubes" and "Shard of Glass" Couple from work yesterday. Insignificant by A_Cro, on Flickr Pastel sun set by A_Cro, on Flickr

Re: PS4 pre-order Just looked in GAME website regarding the bundles and they have no answer as to what is replacing Drive Club yet. Just hope it's a decent game they replace it with.

YouTube what you want to learn. Will be the easiest way to get your head around it IMO. Good luck with it.

I think at one point, Lumix was the go to camera for point and shoot but there has been a lot of advances and from what I've seen, Lumix haven't kept up. As Niall says, wait for Brazo as he shoots Sony and he gets some superb images from them.

Available in the play store now. £339 for the 32GB version. Dispatched within 1-2 business days. I'm due an upgrade in Jan so hopefully there will be some good deals around by then. https://play.google.com/store/devices/details?id=nexus_5_black_16gb&hl=en

Try Amazon for the 50mm, I'm sure I had an email from them about a lens sale and it was one of the featured lenses. Think it was £70 new.

Still soft on the focus. Remember to use manual. Auto focus on the dark is useless. And use the live view (zoomed in) to get the focus sharp. Also, the white balance looks odd. Too blue. DanJenks - read the stickies on here for a guide on star trials and have a look on Flickr too.

Was that one long exposure or did you stack in the end? Can't see the exif data on my phone for some reason. One thing I would say though, it looks like it is soft on focus on the pylon and the stars. Might be down to me being on my phone or it could have been a knocked tripod or focus dial.
