    Safety in Motorsport Photography, is rallying safer?

    Thanks Guys, great comments. The contrast here was that it was rallying on a circuit and using a lot of circuit marshalls. Hence the rapid response to the guy when he sat down in the line of fire (under 30 seconds )

    Safety in Motorsport Photography, is rallying safer?

    There have been a few accidents in recent years in rallying where members of the public and photographers were involved. I recently attended the Neil Howard rally at Oulton Park. As a race photographer I am aware of certain rules and always making sure you have an escape route. I saw this...

    Windows laptop / Ultrabook for PP in the car

    very interesting especially that last comment actually power isnt a problem beause I will use a car charger after Garys comments perhaps 13" is too small and I should be looking at 15" no decisions yet but getting closer

    Windows laptop / Ultrabook for PP in the car

    Windows laptop / Ultrabook for PP in the car

    I need to replace my ageing sony vaio 16.4 Laptop I use for editing on the move. its been a great workhorse but its getting to the point where I should replace it. I have decided I need a windows machine with 1920 by 1080 (full HD) screen. I have been looking at a few and spotted this one today...

    Nikon D800......

    any 1 else find taking photos at Museums etc
