    Cricket - Focal lengths

    If you read the original replies to the OP's post they where implying that the pictures produced by " Old gear" was rubbish & not worth a jot! I beg to differ! Producing a nice image via this medium doesn't make it crap and not as good as you could get with the equipment available today. I...

    Cricket - Focal lengths

    Hi NiallerM, Thank you for your reply, (at last), I'd be happy to accept your reply but TBH, I honestly aimed it at the Digi pros on here that tbh don't really know the "art" of photography! Ok, they know how to capture "Digi" images for sport & what sells, but, does anyone bother to read a...

    Camera for Rugby

    Local Football - I struggle

    Hi Perry. A better set!, well done. Exposure is a little bit erratic but given the sun it's no biggie. Always use manual IMHO, it gives you so much control & if kept an eye on would have sorted out the last ones exposure. The next thing to focus on is Horizons & framing. I'm no expert & the...

I always use card ingestion, (locked images...
