anyone been to Pembrey recently? Last post in here I can find is 2016 which mentioned its was quite restrictive. Wondered what it’s like for taking images. Cheers.

Now I've moved to the west coast, a chance to get some good coastal sunsets :) 20170405018 by Steve Bird, on Flickr 20170405034 by Steve Bird, on Flickr 20170405041 by Steve Bird, on Flickr

Are you on android or iPhone, Tony?

First chance of getting the camera out since moving house. A couple from the garden this afternoon, taking advantage of the sunny conditions. 20170313002 by Steve Bird, on Flickr 20170313003 by Steve Bird, on Flickr New garden, new Pigeon's! 20170313006 by Steve Bird, on Flickr

iirc if you share an album link you get an advert about every forth image

ideal, thanks for your help Jeff

Thanks for the detail Jeff, I'll give it a go. Do you change the settings each time you use a different lens and keep note of what settings work with each lens?

do you have an example of how you do yours Jeff? I was going to follow the method shown here View: https://youtu.be/dpkDJhiid8c

There's a lot of custom settings you can adjust in the 80D to suit the situation. I've used it for everything from motorsport to wildlife to ice hockey and haven't had any issues.

nice one Jeff. When I get chance I intend to check the 'C' model I have. Just occasionally I think it could be better, probably my poor handling of it but worth a check.

And soooo, back to the wildlife..... :D Sharing the mince pies 20161230006 by Steve Bird, on Flickr 20161230011 by Steve Bird, on Flickr

I'm no expert but tend to use this method after finding this youtube tutorial View: https://youtu.be/SPUWDvD9XFI

Can sometimes be a pain but the low afternoon autumn sun can give some great light. Almost looks like flash in some of the shots from today. A couple of hours out on a walk in Oxfordshire. iso 1600 anybody! :D 20161125006 by Steve Bird, on Flickr 20161125009 by Steve Bird, on Flickr...
