Thanks for your input guys, much appreciated. That session was cancelled and this week again due to the snow. I did take some at the match last weekend with mixed results. I have a rather old Canon 400D and was using 70-300mm lens, the field had a rather dense fog so I am not sure how much of...

Thanks sportpicguy, training was cancelled due to the weather, so didnt manage to get any. It is a good facility with very good lighting so am reasonably hopeful of getting some, albeit it will be evident its dark. Never mind, match day on Sunday so fingers crossed for a clear blue sky frosty day :)

Hi I am not exactly new as I have been a reader of the forum on and off for a few years. I have never really got to grips (read easily give up) with anything much beyond automatic mode, or sports/portrait/landscape etc mode. But I have vowed this is my year to challenge myself to produce some...

Thank you, very useful pages. I had almost come to the conclusion/ was hoping it was going to be the age of the lens causing the problem so i thought trying out a new one in the shop with my body would help eliminate that, and get me started too. Thanks again for taking the time to answer.

Hi folks I recently acquired a 400d and sigma lens ( 2 seperate purchases) i am getting the error99 message so i am off to Jessops this morning to look at a new lens. A. to establish if the problem is the old lens or the camera ( dont really know how old the lens is as it was a 'gift'/ pass...

Hi :wave: I certainly want to reduce my weight by a significant amount, mainly as i worry about my health now i am into the 40's. I cant seem to get the motivation going and my usual excuses start.... 2011 needs to be different, and i have a holiday to go to in June so dont want to scare...

I know i didnt ask the question but thanks, there was some really useful information in there, in nice basic language which i like haha.:naughty:

Hi folks, i have been online a few days now, i have even made my first purchase. But i havent said an official hello.:wave: As you can see i live in the glorious Lake District, i had a film canon eos 1000 about 20 years ago, but never really got into it properly ( read didnt really know what...

There is a shop that used to be called Circuit City, 7802 South Orange Blossom Trail, but looking on the website it appears to have changed to CompUSA. More like a Comet/Currys?dixons type of shop. Never bought anything but always like a wander if i saw one on our travels.

No it really isnt any issue at all Sanford, its just me, i like to be off and into hotel asap. In fairness you can often clear customs and pick car up far quicker from Sanford too.

Indirect isnt ideal and certainly not for me, if you visit the Dibb you will see plenty willing to do it. Plus some people live in locations where they have to do a flight to connect with main flight anyway so choose to do the indirect way, clear customs etc in the tansit city. Personally i am...

If you dont mind going indirect check out some of the american airlines, delta, united, etc. You will usually get a better price. All depends on what your comfortabl with, booking seperate will 8 times out of 10 work out cheaper, but then you dont get the security when things may go wrong...

Thank you that is also a very useful link. We have been out today had a browse in the shops, held a few, ummmed and ahhhed and left :thinking: Gonna spend another night reading through the forums and keeping my eye open for a bargain on the sale threads. thanks again for this info everyone

Many thanks for that, very useful, just what i wanted. :thumbs:

Hi folks, a newbie here and pretty much to photography too. I have had film canons' a long time ago ( talking 15/20yrs) and enjoyed the experience. I have more time now and am really looking to getting a dslr instead of the point and shoot i have now. I have been lurking on these boards for a...
