Thanks for all the replies folks, some great suggestions in here. I've decided to go for the Sigma 17-50mm f2.8 as I felt that after thinking of the subjects I normally shoot, it's probably best suited for my needs. If I do need anything beyond the 50mm then it's not too major a deal for me...

It was skating that got me into photography, I used to rollerblade and used cheap digital cameras up until I splashed out on my own DSLR. Bought the Sony A200 I believe it was and used that along with a video camcorder to film and photograph skating. Decided to combine them both and invested...

The 17-50mm certainly looks like a good shout. I had considered potentially looking into getting a full frame Canon in the not too distant future, but I guess I could hold off on that for another year or so until I'm a bit more skilled and could put it to best use.

I'm on the lookout for a new walkabout lens. I have a range of different lenses covering a pretty decent variation of lengths and speeds, but I would love one that I can take on travels and not worry about having to swap out every time I want to change what I'm shooting. My last holiday I took...

Hi everyone, Long time member, but long time since I last posted on here. I used to do a spot of really beginner photography years back but found myself drifting more towards videography through skating. My interest in using my camera faded a bit over time. Recently I've started getting back...

Still showing as some Scottish stores having in stock, but none that I will be able to get to anytime soon.

Spotted this on HUKD and thought I'd share. Appears to be in-store pickup only. 55mm - http://www.jessops.com/online.store/products/7450/show.html?cm_vc=PPZ1 62mm - http://www.jessops.com/online.store/products/7453/show.html?cm_vc=PPZ1 72mm -...

Looking for someone with a french shipping address that would be willing to do a massive favour.

Was trying to do a search but it kept returning a 404, so not sure if theres a problem with the search function just now? Would more than likely just be a 55-200mm Siggy.

What's the laws regarding taking a DSLR to a premier league match? Got free tickets to Sunderland v Chelsea next weekend and thought about taking the 60D along.

Take it apart and place it in a sealed container covered completely in rice. Use an old chinese takeaway tub if you have one. That does the trick nearly every time.

mod edit: breaking link as it's not OP's picture Now this isn't my photo, but thought it was worth sharing on here. Pretty amazing. Reminds me of something out of Ghostbusters. Source: http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/picture/2011/sep/01/eyewitness-bolt-from-the-blue#zoomed-picture

It's still in progress. Still got quite a bit going on just now so it's been put on the back burner a bit. I'll hopefully be picking it back up again soon, sorry to keep so many waiting.

Sorry folks. I haven't forgotten about you all. In fact the tutorial is nearly complete, I've just been pretty busy with lots of stuff going on here. Illness, preparing for moving home, teaching myself Java for going back to uni etc. I will do my best to get the next part up as soon as possible.

Yeah I'm pretty sure that 20Twenty are involved. Sure it's a board, bike and inline demo throughout the day. Good photo ops for anyone.
