    Photography Courses

    I should've said that first shouldn't I? I am a pleb. Ideally, I want to turn it into a career. Being a failed Design Student I've always felt Photography was best for me, I've always enjoyed it and it has been a serious hobby. And I do want to make money out of it, I feel as though theres...

    Films that make you cry......

    Ha, and I thought I was the only one. I was only like 13 at the time and wept like mad! Some reason The Return of the King where everyone meets up at the end got to me a bit, agree with Schindler's List too.

    Knowledge or Chimping

    If I am honest, when I first got into Photography seriously a few years ago I did chimp around. And I still do now, and I don't see it as a bad thing. I believe that if you knew everything about your Camera and how to use it, it wouldn't automatically make you an amazing Photographer. As...

    Jessops in talks to become Canon-only Dealer

    Jealous. One of the reasons why I want to live in Norwich hehe. We had a Camera Store in Ipswich, but it closed due to the bloke retiring. Shame, wanted to swap some lenses as well :(

    Are you brand loyal, when it comes to your compact

    Dad is a Canon fanboy so that makes me a Canon Fangirl. I've never been tempted by Nikon or any other brands to be honest, I think I wear those rose tinted glasses a lot haha. My First DSLR was a Canon and the next DSLRs will be Canon, and my Compact is obviously Canon too <3

    No dSLR allowed on Wembley Stadium

    I got away with it when I saw Muse at Wembley Stadium, even then I was told not to use it as Security would confiscate it. I dunno how they would considering I was right in the middle in the standing area so they couldn't see me :D I guess it's different for you.

    40D prices

    They will keep falling too mate. I'm keeping my beady eye on them as I want one too, with the 50D they are so cheap now. Got something from Warehouse Express through the post today, 40D (Body Only) is £518 and with the 17-85mm Lens it's £734 with cashback also. It's a bargain, although I want it...

    Pictures of your Gear/Workshop/Studio

    Thought it might make an interesting Thread. Post photos of your Kit, or your Studio/Workshop or where you do all your Photo work. As I'm a Student, I have to do mine on my Desk which is about to break. :razz: Just printed some Photos out to see if I can get the colours right, which I...

    Do you nearly always have your camera with you?

    When I'm out yes, I always carry my G9 everywhere I go. If I want to go out and take Photos, I take the rest of my gear with me. :D I hate going out and missing a great opportunity for a Photo, hence the G9 is always with me. Or my work would be pretty scared if I took my DSLR to work! Hehe.
