    First SLR - help please

    I'm going to say that I've found a great number of good nikon lenses at sensible prices pre owned, I was lucky enough to get the 55-300mm and the 35mm prime together for £200. Combined with the 18-55 kit lens I felt I had enough to get me on the road to learning how to compose and take a decent...

    En-el4a and charger

    Same here Amazon have plenty with great reviews, I picked up two third party ones from a local store that was closing down, have never had any problems and they hold charge as well as the "official" ones.

    Beginner Nikon D3200 + Kit Lens

    Sorry to hijack but to save starting a thread what would most of you say a pre owned D5500 would be fetching, fancy a move up ( in terms of bells and whistles ) from my D3300. Have looked on ebay but price vary pretty wildly.

    Sony RX100

    It's perfect for those occasions, the other half get's a face on when she see's my camera bag as she knows I'll have my "I'm taking pics" head on, however I can snaffle the RX in anytime and she doesn't know until it's too late :D

    Ross Harvey - Street Photographer in Cuba

    Have to say I thought it was just me, honestly not blown away and perhaps it was all the heralds on his blog such as xxx of the year that got me expecting magic, great shots but in truth nothing I wouldn't expect to find from any number of members here and I'll even be so bold as to suggest you...

    Nikon D3400

    Picked up a pre owned D3300 and kit lens for £170 have since added the 55-300mm and 35mm prime which I bought together for under £200, got two spare batteries from amazon for £15 for the pair. Sadly there's nothing to tempt me even slightly, is this the norm for DSLR's? All seems very odd to me...

    Titling shots,unnecessary evil or worthy companion?

    I'm guilty of that to a lesser degree, I usually have at least a general location unless it's obvious (Blackpool tower in the background etc) I'm the same with exif info, I'd like to know what was used in terms of equipment and settings etc.

    Thanks for the welcome Andy, just taken a look at your site and loved it, there's a good few places that I've got fond memories of, my family background is rooted in Leyland, ROF, BTR, Leyland and Birmingham and I currently work at Trucks myself.

    Titling shots,unnecessary evil or worthy companion?

    Brilliant, that's a complete nail on the head moment and one I wished I'd come up with!! It won't make a lousy picture fantastic but it can add to it surely? A good title can provoke thought and enhance a picture is where I'd say I stand on the matter, thanks Ian.
