I had a bit of a search but came up empty. Does anyone know what is the minimum write / transfer speed Id need on a CF card when shooting full HD video on a Canon 7D? I can barely afford the camera itsself, so paying jessops an extra 70 or 110GBP for an extreme sandisk card isnt really an...

After having a look at a couple of photos, Ive come to the conclusion that my sensor is overdue a cleaning. Ive had a browse around, and came across a mention of using a lenspen in one of the threads. Can you use the standard lenspen for the job, Or is buying the dedicated sensor cleaning...

I cant find anything on these forums, and very little on the net. My Cannon 17-85mm IS lens is being a pain. Its jamming in the extended position till I turn the whole thing upside down to bring it back in. Im led to believe this is because a group has fallen out of place. Is this...

Quite a lot of people find it funny. Yes it does say something about them. It says we're sick of seeing reports of scum picking on unfortunate souls, and its nice to see someone get their own back.

Granted. I can understand someone feeling jittery when theres a Realistic Imitation Firearm in the vicinity and its not an appropriate setting (convention, skirmish, private home) but when its simply pictures of said RIFs, thats when I feel they cross the line to over-reaction.

They dont even need to have that. The only restriction on pyrotechnics suitable for mil-sim events (airsoft, paintball) is that the buyer is over 18. Any devices that necessitate a license are far too powerful for the skirmish site. I can completely understand your point of view, though...

Round up the scum, and conscript them. Not into the decent mans army. The engineer battalions. Chav: Wheres my cider? What am I doing here? Sgt: You go out and find mines.... the hard way. NOW GET MOVING! ... Or is that a little harsh? =P

Just recently seen this too. I love how the punks friend is so hyped up and eager for the old guy to have his ass handed to him... and it ends up with his mate bloodied and asking for an ambulance. In the vernacular, MON THE AULD YIN!

These arent the actual images in question, but theyre indicative of the kind of photos taken on any given skirmish day. What im after is the kind of thing joodles posted. joodles said that (s)he had to call the police because someone handed in photos of substance abuse. Is that an actual law or...

Fair enough. I suppose the sight of guns is enough to make some people over - react. If I was working in a photo printers, Id probably ask what they were up to - and where I could join in! :P

Why would anyone have their airsoft equipment with them? Let alone someones mother in law. There are any number of reasons for someone to legitimately want a photo of themselves toting a weapon. Im the site photographer for an airsoft company. I get a lot of people looking for themselves...

Yeah? How so? :thinking:

Heres the situation: A good friend of mine told me about this: Now I was in asda just recently getting some pictures printed for my application portfolio. They included some photos from my UKCM events and a few from airsofting. Not one comment from the asda staff. I didnt even think that...

Well it seems that photography is going to be getting the time it deserves in the future; Im going back to college :D Im Mike, 23 from Glasgow. Looking forward to getting involved with this ere site and staying motivated with my photographising.
