    DSLR Upgrade

    Cyclone, I finally made up my mind a couple of weeks ago and went for the D300, Grip and 70-200 F2.8. I have had it out to a few events and I am really pleased with the results.:) I have used the combination both with a monopod and hand held. I was really pleased with both results. Boy is it...

    Hi All

    I can across this Forum by accident really but as I have fairly recently rekindled an old interest in photography and especially motorsport photography I thought that joining would be a good way of learning the art of digital photography from all you other members. Photography is only a hobby...
