Just been down to Harvey Norman in Belfast. They are closing down their electrical end of the stores. Few good discounts to be had. 20-30% of all camera gear and accessories. Was a couple of D7000 with kit lens left. Few Canon bodies and some manfrotto tripods. Camera bags as well.

Thanks for the tips. That is definately going to be a big help and time saver! Again thanks for the advice. I never even noticed the bow until you mentioned it. I will have a play when i get home tonight. Would like to get them as good as possible because i am thinking of printing them i a...

Hi Ian Mostly i just followed the examples on Youtube. I must have spent easily 2 days watching videos on the ipad. My basic workflow as i do it is Import to Lightroom from memory card, rename and convert to DNG Sort through the photos in Libary mode, deleting and rating as i go...

Cheers mate. Much appreciated.

Hi everyone :wave: I have just recently got myself a nice shinny new D7000 and thought it was about time I learnt to shoot in RAW and edit my photos. So after a nice week in Malta I got myself a copy of Lightroom 3 and sat down to start. Initially I was overwhelmed but after watching alot of...

And we only paid $70 per room per night

We went as part of our honeymoon in Aug this year. Stayed at the Trump Hotel and could not recommend it enough. Really great hotel. It is a non gaming hotel but that was what we wanted. Rooms where fantastic, you can see them on the website. High rise as well so good views of Vegas and the...

Good news mate. Enjoy it, I am still trying to work it out!!

Just web chatted with nikon uk and they say they offer no vouchers directly from nikon but have to come from the shop you bought the camera at???

A final update guys. Just left Calumet with a new D7000. They replaced it with a query or hesitation. No problems what so ever. The guy was really helpful. I guess this is the advantage of buying from a bricks and mortar shop. I was going to buy online and can only think of the hassle it would...

Thanks for all the replys guys, I am definately going to go back to the shop with it tomorrow. I have posted a pic with the dot in it below, linked to flickr i hope. It may not be a big problem but I am the type of person who will always see it and will never be happy with it. Whilst I...

Thanks mate. Think I will take it back on Monday. After doing some research on google it seems to have been a problem with earlier D7000's. Apparently a firmware update was supposed to fix it but mine already has the latest firmware.

Hi guys Looking for a bit of advice. Picked up a new D7000 today from my local Calumet. Was taking some pics today and noticed two blue dots on every picture. They are small but depending on the background fairly noticeable. I think they are a couple of dead pixels. Should I return the camera...

Hi Guys Just opened the box on my new D7000. Excited is not the word!! Upgrading from a D5000. Expecting a steep learning curve. Anyone got any advice on a new lens as well. Was thinking of a fast 17-50. Either tamron or sigma, I have no more money for the nikon. I already have a nikon 70-300...
