Nice whisks of cloud!

I've been going in and out with a 7D and the 24 - 105 lens. Obviously got searched but absolutely no comment regarding the camera. Every third person seems to have fat camera hanging around their neck...!

You don't need to be a member of one of those groups, go do it yourself or with some friends! I do a reasonable amount of urban exploring - and I'm a fairly inactive member of 28 days later as well. But to be honest, I have more fun spotting places and taking photos on my own time scale than...

Great idea, and its different to see all these images on one page rather than 30....! I like!

Hi All, Have the Canon 7D, its about four weeks old and I'm getting to grips with the still element, so its time for the video part. I'm off traveling so will take the book with me and use it for reference as well as learning. I've done some looking, (Ebay, Amazon, Google etc) and want...

Hi all, Hopefully an easy one. What I am trying to do... Select 30 photos from a collection. I've saved them in a new collection called website and then loaded the web editing features. Selected my options, amended etc and uploaded via the inbuilt FTP. But how can I save this exact web...

I had this debate as well..! Upgrading from a Canon 40D. I couldn't make my mind up and spent days looking at the options, prices etc. Then by pure chance got a Canon at a one off price which I couldn't say no to. Bought it with a 28mm prime. So with that and the 50mm 1.4 I am loving it, its an...

still waiting for my mine to come through the post. The 7D is an amazing camera, been playing with the stills element so far. Not even touched HD yet which was the main reason why i purchased it...

I jusr bought that exact card for the same camera, 7D - new camera so I did some asking around and this was the one most people thumbed up! £53 from amazon.

Hi All, I really appreciate the responses to this thread, so wanted to show I have taken the advice on board, and give a breakdown of my additional kit purchased because of the advice give here... Back up wise - Chatted to my friend (Skype is amazing) and getting to a computer every few days...

Alexam - Changed my mind last minute and Upgraded to the 16Gb, in total £53 and that was Amazon shipping again. Didn't pay for the extra postage but already been told its in the post so very happy. I'm happy with my choice.... even through I did spend a long time making it!

Redhead - Good point about sensor cleaning kit etc. As this is a new camera I had completely forgotten about all that stuff. - Just purchased blower and sensor cleaning kit from interenet. Just when I convince myself I don't have the money for backup devices, Everybody points otherwise...

After doing a search on this forum, reading topics and folling up their links I can safely say a secondary backup device is way out of my budget. Sadly I don't want to carry a notebook with me which is the other option people speak bout as i'm still only travelling with a 35L rucksack. So, I'm...

Guys, if your after cheap Gels etc, then Lee aren't the only people to purchase from. When I'm on a big job we often order Gel from "Thats a Wrap". Its not Lee, but identical. I have been on so many sets where the debates about if they are the same / different from Lee gets quite built up, i've...

MisterE - Going to take your wise advice. I was under the thought my memory cards haven't failed me yet.... but I appreciate they could get lost / stolen. I won't keep any in the camera bag - more good advice. So, I have money left for a backup device. Not going to be taking a laptop, so...
