    Batteries and chargers (Eneloop and BC-900)

    Seems there have been a few melt-down problems with the 900. Many places seem to be out of stock. Think I'll go for the Maha/Powerex C9000.

    Batteries and chargers (Eneloop and BC-900)

    What I find surprising is that despite these La Crosse/Technoline BC 900 chargers being raved about as chargers they are an absolute PIG to get hold of. Only one place in the UK seems to stock them and they are out of stock until April. It's like they must make 50 a year or something...

    Elements 8 - Trial / register for full licence?

    Quick query. Out of UK at the moment. If I try the trial of Elements 8 then order the disc from UK (for Mac), when it arrives is it simply the case of my wife needing to give me the licence number to register the trial and convert it to fully licensed or does it work like that?

    Image management - fresh start.

    Thanks. Think I'll just run with iPhoto for now (not sure if the 2009 upgrade is worth it, or even 2010, I'm sure there'll be one) then see if there is anything I cant do then decide. Once I decide I suppose I can then download a trial, order it, and just 'register' the trial once the...

    Image management - fresh start.

    Thanks. I am very much a novice and have used a Canon Ixus 850is in the past. I am not so much a hobby photographer but got the D90 to enable taking better pics in more difficult situations and some wildlife/ancient architecture. My only concern in overload with trying to master everything...

    Image management - fresh start.

    I have a D90 now and a Mac Book (Intel 2 Core Duo / 2.16 Ghz) and a Windows desktop (Dell XPS 600) at home and am looking to start afresh with image management etc. My main interest will be photography and not editing but I would like to be able to do something more sophisticated than just...

    Dubai airport shopping?

    If Abu Dhabi is anything to go by you can get the stuff more cheaply in the UK. Tax free UAE may be, cheap it ain't. For anything except junk! :thumbsdown:

    D90 Owners Thread - Anything D90 related

    It's only for casual really. I considered the 300 f/4 but it's fixed whereas the 70-300 gives some flexibility if you don't always want 300.

    D90 Owners Thread - Anything D90 related

    Not long had my D90. Well impressed. Not used it much as I have been a bit busy. Got the kit 18-105 and also the 50mm f/1.8. I do like wildlife photography so MAY get the 70-300 VR. I was also contemplating the 35mm prime but may wait to see if I NEED that. New to DSLRs but had an SLR...

    Which 70-300mm for Nikon D90?

    Hi, great looking forum this!!! Pointed in this direction from a fellow on AV Forums. Relatively new to DSLRs but not to photography (still got an Olympus OM4 from a long time ago). Not long had the D90 and it seems a fabulous piece of kit! Got it with the 18-105mm which seems quite good...
