    photobooks

    Thanks for the advice folks, had a look at myphotobook.co.uk looks like the software is pretty flexible so reckon I'll go with that and looks like they only do photobooks so one would think they might know what they are doing... Cheers, G.

    canon ip4700 advice please...

    This printer produces astounding results. So far I've tried "Canon photo paper plus glossy ii PP201" which is the best so far. "Epson premium semigloss photo paper" is really close to the quality of the canon paper and quite a bit cheaper. Just tried "kodak gloss brilliant photo paper" which...

    how do I do an HDR from 1 RAW file

    printer

    :shrug: Yeah, given up with my epson (s20). Not worth the hassle. And then when I thought about it I've spent hundreds of pounds on lenses and yet I'm sitting with a crappy printer that won't even print photos that do my pictures justice - particularly anything dark. Tried editing photos...

    Anyone got the Nikon 105mm f/2.8D Macro?

    My favourite lens, oozes quality and I find the VR useful for doing more general stuff other than macro.
