Personally I would be thrilled if anyone thought any of my images were worth pinching, only in my dreams am I that good!!

I upgraded, thanks to a generous Christmas present, from a 350d to a 60d and I absolutely love it. I have since bought a canon 28-135 lens and the 50 m 1.8 prime lens, couples with the 18-55 kit lens and a 70-250, I am covered for everything I need at the moment. I have borrowed a sigma macro...

Hi Just interested to know if anyone has any thoughts on a good underwater camera, not an SLR, too expensive for housing. Am looking at a canon G11 second hand just now and wondered if anyone had any views on them or any others. Thanks Tina

Hi I recently purchased a Canon 28-135 lens as I wanted a good all round lens to take on holiday without having to take different lenses. It was within my budget and reviews seemed ok. I purchased it from Jessops only a month ago. Since then when pointing the lens down it doesn't just creep it...

Well I got elements 10 after all. Not sure it was the right decision but too late now. Some things are easier. One of my projects for college is a poster and for some reason I find it easier to put together in elements than CS4, don't understand why. The editing is obviously not as good in...

Thanks for the feedback, the reason I didn't want CS4 on my mac book is because it is the full creative Suite which I have borrowed from a friend and I don't want the other bits clogging up my machine. I thought i might get cs6 when it comes out soon and just get the photoshop elements to keep...

Hi I would really appreciate people's views/thoughts. I have just bought a new mac book, 4GB memory. I already have an iMac which i use CS4 on. Do you think, given the memory on the laptop, that PS Elements 10 would give me enough to do a little bit of editing but then use the iMac for...

Really sorry to ask this if I am asking in the wrong place but I have just joined the 52 group thro Flickr and I am not sure if I just post pictures there or on tp as well. If tp can someone tell me where and how. Sorry if I am being stupid here! Thanks

Thanks everyone, but still not sure which to buy. Guess I just go for one and hope for the best! Thanks anyway for responding and I do value your thoughts.

Hi, I would love to start taking macro pics and would like thoughts on which lens is the most suitable for a beginner. My budget is about £300, either new or second hand. I have a canon 60d. I have tried looking at reviews but am struggling to work out which would be best. I am particularly...

Hi, I just want to say that I upgraded from a 350d at Christmas and was given a 60d from Father Christmas, I absolutely love it! I am extremely pleased with it and my photos have improved hugely. I am only a novice at this though but am really glad I have my new camera.

Just looked at your pics and they are exactly the sort of thing I am aiming for. I especially love 'Hold On', I am doing a project on Urban lines for my course and that is exactly the sort of shot I want to do. One of my other projects is sweets and I wanted to do some shots of sweets with...

I think that is probably where I went wrong, I have major major problems with lighting. Really struggling.

Tried loading software again on my mac book but didn't work, either the disc is faulty or my mac book is too old or full. Getting new mac soon so will wait until then.

I have paid £11, which includes delivery for 2 A3 high gloss sheets, one in black and one in white. Hope they work. I tried glass over black card but didn't give a brilliant reflection. Will let you know what they are like when they arrive.
