Thanks for all the suggestions guys. I ended up going for the Slingshot 102AW. I've had it a couple of days now and I love it :thumbs: Got a bargain too as Amazon reduced it's price just before I ordered it :cool:

Thanks for the link Adam. I think I'd have to try one on before I bought one. I've tried on the Slingshot and it seems perfect for me. Thanks anyway though.

Thanks for your reply Ben :) Quick update: I went to Jessops a couple of days ago and tried on the 102 & 202. I've decided on the 102. Hopefully I can find a second hand one in good condition for less than the £50 retail price ;)

Yes I'd seen it thanks Sam. To be honest none of those suggestions look quite as useful as the Slingshot. Thanks anyway :)

Thanks for your answers guys :) I guess it's down to personal opinion as to whether it feels comfortable or not. I definitely need to try wearing one with a bit of weight in it. I'll pop to Jessops over the weekend :thumbs:

Thanks for your answer Chris :) I guess you're right. I'll head down to Jessops with my kit and try a few out for size. Then I'll probably give Ebay a try for a used one ;) Hi Tommy. Can you expand on that a little? What was it about the strap that you didn't like?

When I bought my 450D second hand, it came with a Canon 10EG Deluxe Gadget Bag. It's a very nice bag, but I find I usually end up leaving it at home as it's not very convenient for the type of stuff I do. I've been looking at the Lowepro Slingshots and they seem pretty much perfect for me...

Thanks for the recommendation Graham. Unfortunately Mark Pearson isn't available on our date :( but thanks anyway. Thanks Hugh. I'll have a look through his website. Coincidently we noticed there was a wedding fayre near us today and we managed to pop along. There were a few photographers...

After 6 years together, I finally proposed to my girlfriend just before xmas. We don't want to hang about so we're now getting stuck into planning the big day (the joy :bang: ) We're not doing bad so far. We've got the venue, registrar and caterers booked and deposits paid. The big day will be...

My first 'bump'. http://www.talkphotography.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=361412 To me, there are a couple of obvious reasons why these photos don't work too well, but I'm just wondering what other peoples thoughts are. Thankyouplease :D

Thankyou everyone for your replies :) I completely forgot the filter was on until afterwards. I tend to just keep it attached to the lens as I don't really have anywhere else to store it. I'll make sure I take it off next time. I definately need to get myself a lens hood too. It's good to...

I was out shooting some light trails the other night (first attempt) and I noticed a few unwanted effects on some of the shots. The picture below shows the two effects I'm referring to... Top-right of the picture, near the street lamps, there are some concentric lines which I'm assuming...

Well today was great :) The weather was fantastic and there was plenty of action on the track. I took just over 1000 photos :eek: but this evening I've cut that down to just over 500 by deleting the OOF/blurred/ruined ones. To be honest, I'm not blown away by any of them, but I've posted...

Thanks everyone for your replies :) I just hope this crap weather clears up before Saturday. I'll let you know how I get on :cool:

Thanks for your replies guys :) A difference of opinion there. I guess the shutter speed is something I'll have to experiment with anyway. I want to get as much motion blur in the backround as I can, but I guess it depends how good my panning skills are as to how low I can go while keeping...
