    Picking an editor is hard

    I’ve used Adobe Photographers package for a few years and find it much better than the old model of having to pay for new versions to keep up with the advances. Great value for money for me, a fraction of what I’ve paid for my camera gear, laptops and other peripherals. I’m not sure I...

    Tips Of The Day

    Hits the nail on the head for me, I enjoy any street photo that tells (or suggests) a real story. If there’s no story I feel it’s more of a document or record of the scene rather than what I would consider a true ‘street’ photograph. Nice that we all have different expectations because it keeps...

    Hi from Scotland

    Hello all, I joined a few weeks ago and have already had some very helpful advice on the forums here. I‘m returning to photography after a 10 year hiatus (work/family etc.) and am hoping to learn a lot through use of the forums - I’ve forgotten all I used to know! Started out on film in the...

    Care to share a simple Photoshop workflow?

    Excellent Eucris thank you, I’ve been doing this & saving as DNG file then re-opening it to save as a TIFF to edit more expansively later. Just wondered if the RAW could be saved as a DNG and also as a TIFF at the same time to save a bit of clicking?

    Care to share a simple Photoshop workflow?

    Anyone care to share the beginning part of their workflow from bringing RAWs into ACR and then saving both the RAW as a DNG file (no sidecar) and a TIFF on the PC. I’m starting with CR3 RAW files and have a PC that accepts the card they’re on. I’ll only be using Photoshop and won’t be processing...

    Canon EOS R Series Cameras

    Thanks Phil, I’m just getting used to the camera and probably getting lost in the menus. I want eye detection and animal detection switched on when photographing birds but not when doing static subjects since it’s a distraction. I’ve set up BBF with AF-ON for single point and * to switch to...

    Canon EOS R Series Cameras

    Thanks Tim, I’ve set up a separate wildlife profile in C1 which appears to keep the two different shooting styles completely separate, thanks for your input.

    Canon EOS R Series Cameras

    Excellent advice Tim thanks, I’ll either do that or just configure the set button to return the AF spot to the centre. I’ve figured most of it out but there’s one situation I can’t seem to fine tweak. I have single shot AF isolated to the AF-ON button (no AF when I half depress the shutter) and...

    Canon EOS R Series Cameras

    Thanks Tim, I disabled touch and drag in settings but the AF point still moves when I touch the screen!

    Same here on my R6 mark II. I have touch shutter disabled but haven’t yet found the setting to disable the AF point being moved by touching the screen. I’ll keep mining the menu and let you know if I find it.

    Where's all the Apple speed?

    Read this topic as “Where’s all the Apple seed?” I was on the fourth post when I realised it was about chips and not seeds.

    Continuous lighting for diorama photography

    Hi Phil, valuable input thanks, will avoid those. An LED panel sounds like the way to go (I have an older light to use as well so only looking for one). What power would you suggest as a minimum for my purposes? If poss will try to get one with variable brightness/temperature but it’s the power...

    Continuous lighting for diorama photography

    I will be creating 1/12 scale dioramas for a project (interiors of houses) and am looking for affordable (under £200) options for lighting them. The models will be photographed indoors and almost of the light will be directed through the model’s windows with a little fill in as well. I have been...

    Well done Scotland raise taxes to pay for NHS and Benefits

    Yes they followed Wales and NI in this respect leaving England the only UK country to charge. The majority of prescriptions (over 80%) were already free - the young, elderly, those on low income and cancer patients - so it didn’t really cost the Scottish Government much at the time and probably...
