    Nikon D7xxx owners thread

    Ordered one of these last night along with a third party grip. Going to be one hell of a step up from my D40!

    D90 Owners Thread - Anything D90 related

    Ah, so not the genuine article then? Isn't that a tad...illegal? False advertising or somesuch. Regardless, does anyone know if it's any good? Or is it worth splashing out for the real thing?

    D90 Owners Thread - Anything D90 related

    Looking to get myself a D90, so I've been looking for accessories to go with it, namely a grip. I've seen an MB-D80 on eBay for under £40. Too good to be true? The seller is top rated, which leads me to think it isn't a scam, but that cheap?! On Amazon it's going for £105...

    What next?

    I'm looking to upgrade my from D40 and get a D90. At the same time, I'll also be looking to get a new lens. The only problem is I have no idea what to get. I already have a Nikkor 50mm f1.8, 18-55mm kit lens and a Tamron 18-200mm. I'm looking to go into photojournalism once I graduate, so...

    It has begun....and now it's ended....again **TP OFFICIAL WORLD CUP THREAD**

    RE: UK Team The only players that would get into the team from outside England would be Fletcher, Ramsey, Bale and Gordon. Even then, they'd all be subs apart from Fletcher.

    HOLGA tastic... Show us your TOY CAMERA pics...:-)

    So these are my first attempts at using my Holga 135BC (and indeed my first attempts at film altogether): Unfortunately I had to use my DSLR to get them onto my PC as I've no sodding clue as to how my scanner works...

    In pictures: Gordon Brown's last moments inside No 10

    I think number five is a cracking shot.

    Its the photographer, not the kit - challenge

    Taken on my very first camera, the Olympus C370Z. Probably cost around £40.

    Photographic Idols

    There was an interview with Tony Vaccaro for a BBC documentart called The Genius of Photography. He talked about that picture and how he saw the tank explode in front of him, that soldier fall out of the turret and then taking the picture as bullets were pinging off the tank. It's all...

    Photographic Idols

    To me the composition is less important than capturing the moment. With Vaccaro's image, getting a shot of a man who's just been blown out of a tank not five seconds before is more authenthic and has more of a wow factor.

    Photographic Idols

    Aye, I think I would as well. None of Capa's images, although fantastic, made me go "Wow!" like this one by Vaccaro: Just incredible.

    Photographic Idols

    As with all things in life, there are people we look to as inspiration; someone who shows us how it's done and inspires us to go out shoot. I'm relatively new to photography, so my idols are perhaps cliches, but I look at the work of Cartier-Bresson, Capa and Vaccaro and I'm both amazed...

    Barcelona

    Unless of course, that's what you like taking pictures of.

    Barcelona

    Oh yeah, you must order paella while you're there. Bloody fantastic stuff. If you can get it with langoustines then even better!

    Barcelona

    Been there twice and I'm looking to go again over the summer with my girlfriend. It depends on what you want to take pictures of. Las Ramblas is fantastic for people, as it's full of stalls and street acts. FC Barcelona are playing at home against Xerex as well, so the Nou Camp and its...
