    Beginner Are prime lenses all they're cracked up to be?

    I'm a complete hobbyist, all my pictures or for my own and families benefit only, I use zooms for everything pretty much. Tried a 50mm prime and a 35mm on my APS-C camera and didn't get on with them, so stick with the 24-104 or 18-35. BUT I hit a brick wall when I found that what I loved most...

    Beginner Where to begin?

    agree with all the above, I would say you have the best mind-set already, get into a few reputable camera shops (not electronics in general, stick specialist as the staff are more likely to know what they are on about). Play with a few models, see what suits you and then don't feel bad or...

    Back from Hiatus

    Hello again all Used to be active on here, but life sort of got in the way and my interest in photography waned somewhat. Recently dug out the bag and had a ferret about to remind myself what kit I had. Immediately found the 100mm macro and went hunting into the garden. Rattled off a couple of...

    70d new releases

    i'd think about it, just got a 60d and really enjoying it but its still got the sub par 9 point AF, so if the 70 gets the 19 point i'd consider it for sure. also like the idea of the touchscreen etc, so i'd like to give it a hands on at least :)

    Filter woes

    it sounds like whatever was in the bird has destroyed the filter coating, did you not rinse the filter first before wiping with the cleaner? either way if you've tried usual practice and theres still marks......new filter time I would guess

    What ND filter(s)?

    haida do some grades, I have a 3 stop one that works well but never tried it for motorsport!lol! basically though if your looking at 1/400 at iso 100 f4 currently you'll need around 2 stops of ND to get down to 1/125 you need to get some blur, but even further may be good to get better...
