Yes a pretty big difference. Looking forward to printing and seeing the results.

It's 100% an AIO. The reason I thought I couldn't use a calibration device was because there's no dedicated graphics card, just an on-board type. Anyway, I have the screen calibrated now having used a Syder4Pro. Thx for all feedback.

It's a Lenovo C30.

OK, I'm using a Lenovo All-in-One PC, I use Photoshop CC and LR. But I can't calibrate my screen as it doesn't have a dedicated graphics card. My prints are always far darker then what's on my screen, so I've to drastically brighten (by about 30-40 on the brighten slider) my images before I...

Ordered mine 2 days ago.... gawd it's frustrating watching the courier status updates!!!

Thanks for all your feedback guys. Instead of deciding between the two, I'm gonna get both the Canon 17-40 and the 24-105 f3.5-5.6 STM (not the L), as it gets great reviews and the optical quality is excellent. Oh, and it's cheaper. Can't wait now.

OK, the time has come to sell my Canon 60d and Sigma 10-20 and go full frame with a Canon 6D. I shoot mostly landscape and floral macro, hence the 6D over the 5D MkIII, with occasional Club studio portrait night. My dilemma is do I go for the Canon 17-40 or the 24-105. I like to shoot wide...

I have a Samyang and I don't think it can even take a screw on filter, let along a Lee system. I bought mine to use for astro-photography, not as a landscapes lens, and I'm very very happy with it.

Guys, I had a Meike Grip for my Canon 550D and it had a timer on it to take 999 photo's and was great for shooting star trails, since getting a Canon 60D Meike don't seem to make a grip with timer. Does anyone know where I can get a grip with built-in timer for a 60D?

OK, I recently had to sell my camera kit but I'm now in a stronger position and thankfully can now buy a new camera and lens. I have two options and would like peoples feedback/opinions on the best option - Canon 60d and Sigma 10-20 or a Canon 550d and Canon 10-22. I'll be using Lee filters...

The site clearly states there is no additional extra cost - it cleary says no extra VAT needs to be paid, they pay VAT - price you see is price you pay. I was really hoping to find if people have had any experience, not heresay or speculation.

Has anyone ever used www.bignorman.com? I'm on the verge of buying a new camera and they have great great prices. they operate out of Gibraltar and so prices are VAT free. anyone any experiece?

OK thanks for everyone's feedback. I only have 1 Lee and sometimes it's just not dark enough, 2 stop. I was hoping to buy a Z-Pro as it's far cheaper than the Lee's, but if it's gonna add a cast I'll just wait for the good ol' Lee's. I know I can remove a cast in PS, but I just like to keep...

So hitech are like Cokin A & P that they cause a cast when stacked. Anyone know if Cokin Z-Pro cause a cast or are the Z-Pro Cokins top line top quality filter similar to Lee Filters??

Hi guys, I wanna get a new ND Grad filter, I currently use Lee Filters on a Cokin Z-Pro mount (I bought the Cokin Z-Pro because it’s cheaper than the Lee mount but both are the same size) Does anyone know if the glass/resin used in the Cokin Z range of filters is the same as the Cokin A...
