FIXED,,,,,, cheers!

Either one would do, i'm missing Photoshop 2024 in the 'right click' drop down options. Everything else is still there, but not Photoshop. I fixed this problem last time they did a big update, but i'm struggling this time. It just costs a bit of time that's all,,,, in a bit of a faff!

I've lost the 'Open with' ability on my windows files. Affecting Photoshop only. Anyone else had problems?

Just purchased Topaz Denoise,,, can't log in after multiple password changes,,, and can only save mages with their watermark still. Passwords keep getting rejected. Downloaded from the proper site.

Its a long and boring story, which i'm not going to repeat here, but in my opinion if you're using Nikon PF lenses, throw away your converters. They work much better without.

Just tried for the third time to sign up for an instagram account, and now i give up.

I've had this lens, its a budget zoom lens. Its fine when you get used to its foibles. Most models are soft at 500mm, tickle it back to 490 or 480. The sweet aperture is like most zooms f8, but its reasonable at one or two wider. I'd trust the factory calibration initially at least, they usually...

Same Firefox/Yahoo issues here, seems to be something to do with the dodgy re-direct (s.yimg.com). Even when i google Flickr it cuts in. Tried and failed to get rid of it.

Agree, but the 'Great Escape' tunnel was a tad OTT, and Kestrels fighting on a bird table,, nah. Tawny Owl set-up very good.

Flickr is a mess at the moment. I might kick it into touch.

Simon said: This was my conclusion when faced with this question earlier this year. I was shooting birds and butterflies for fun. For a pro,,, things are different. I could have just about afforded the D700 body, but where do i go from there,,,, second mortgage time. In the end i settled for...

Hya Alan, all of us that are not affluent, and want to get into bird photography have wrestled with the question of balancing lens quality against lens price. I don't know what your budget is, but i wouldn't go for a mirror either (for all of the reasons previously stated). A prime will offer...
