    Looking for a Location in cheshire

    Thank you for that, much appreciated. I was told a short while ago that it had been painted over ? Obviously given duff info. So this is where i will go, really looking forward to it, i think i'll go as it starts to get dark, and uses several flashes to light the car and background. Thanks...

    Mac users, what software are you using?

    I have both Lightroom and aperture on mac... I personally think aperture is much more user friendly, so very rarely use Lightroom.. I much prefer the interface on aperture so can edit photos in bulk much quicker than on Lightroom. Both have their upsides, but my recommendation to you would...

    Canon 100-400 Clarity.

    Thank you for the responses, i just wanted to check, and it wasn't just mine. Still a great lens, shame its not as sharp, i think an upgrade may be in order :-)

    Canon 100-400 Clarity.

    I currently have a Canon 100-400L and a Canon 70-200L f/2.8 mk2 I am finding the clarity on the 100-400 is much poorer than the 70-200, i know its a cheaper lens, but surely there should not be that much difference. Has anyone else had noticed this ? or does my 100-400 need some attention ?

    50D underexposed

    Canon or sigma!???

    I started with sigma, but then upgraded to the canon, it may be more expensive but worth the extra money !

    macro lens help advise

    Hi I had the same problem when deciding, so I looked at the image quality on both, the L lens is head and shoulders above the standard, well worth the extra money. I think you may regret going for the cheaper one, and end up upgrading to the L series anyway.
