    Lesson learnt- Equipment failure

    Good to hear you can at least recover what you had shot up to the point of failure. Do you mind sharing the make of the card?

    Noise reduction software - Whats best?

    I have used a very old version of N oise Ninja successfully, so I reckon that it must be even better now. I've heard good things of the current versions. But for my use, even LR can do wonders. This photograph was taken at ISO 1600 on the ancient D70s in RAW, of course, and treated with LR3.

    Finally picked up my first ever DSLR

    Congrats on getting a decent camera. Interestingly, you do not need good weather to shoot with it, so take off the UV thing and return it and either use the camera inside or go out now :)

    48" Canvas Print

    Just send it as is. The software is clearly not very intelligent. Canvas prints do not have such high DPI and even normal photo prints can be done at 150 dpi without normal people seeing any difference.

    Wrist watches

    If you like Steinhart also take a look at Orient. They have some very nice divers as well.

    DXOMARK 5200,D7000,CANON 7D

    The 5200 has the best sensor of the three, what is confusing about that? It is newer than the 7000 and .Canon used their old sensor in the 7D. DXO do not compare cameras, they compare their sensors (and the image pipeline).

    Getting the best from a Canon 40d

    Shoot raw and use some current, decent processing engine. They get better at fixing noise-problems and other stuff every year.

    Would You Have Your DNA Tested?

    Why not? It is certainly better to know if I might develop some condition later on. Maybe I can actively do something to stop it breaking out?

    Nikon D5200 Colour Feedback

    Consider that your lenses will still be black. Personally, I find red or silver cameras ugly, but in the end, the outside hardly matters, right? As a side note, I would also consider upgrading to a better camera. 3100 -> 5200 makes very limited sense, unless the main feature you need is the...

    What has happened to Canon?

    Yes, certainly. I was talking about the past generations, maybe my grammar was wrong? There was a very long wait for that new sensor and generations of cameras using essential the same one. And the new sensor is also not as great as many people had hoped. I'm only writing this to inform...

    New nikkor 58 f1.4

    This will be a fantastic lens, but the price is certainly crazy. However, I can see some "serious amateurs" buying into that lens for the specs. I kind of doubt that many professionals will want to use it.

    Brazil World Cup 2014

    Only £7000 for the group games? You would need a very good client to cover that. I mean, the experience will be wonderful, but the money side sounds unreasonable.

    What has happened to Canon?

    Canon are making their own sensors, which has worked fine for them for a long time. But you can see that they are slowly falling behind. They had the same crop sensor in about 3 generations of cameras now. Nikon buys their sensors from the best manufacturer at the time, which means they will...

    whats this beast?

    At first I thought it looked like a stereo cam, but then you turned it around and it was obvious that these where film holders. I guess freecom2 already nailed it :D There is no model name because it's the first one.
