I have just got myself a brand new A7ii and after just a day of playing around with it, I absolutely love it. The menus are going to take some getting used to after spending 11 years using Canon but I don't think it will take me too long. One thing I am struggling with and I have searched...

Take this with a pinch of salt as I don't have a mbp but I have read a lot into the upgrade options available one. Keep the hard drive in its original bay as there is a sensor which senses if the device is dropped which lifts the head off the platter protecting the drive. The optical bay won't...

Why dont you just but the biggest uv filter you can buy and fit it into the box and then have the lens look through that. This way the box would be weather sealed and you would still be able to take the camera out. Joe

Thanks for all the replies guys. With regards to the canon flash cheap, i can get them through work so not widely available at this price im afraid. Iv got a set of wireless triggers for use with off camera work. A lot of what im doing is going to be off camera work so im now quite tempted...

Hi im currently after getting a new flash for my 450d, it will be used both on the body and off the body via some wireless triggers. My budget is about £200. So far i have found the; Canon Speedlite 430EX II Flashgun i can get this for around £175 brand new. Nissin Di866 £204...

Crumpler do a extensive range of sling type bags that don't really look like camera bags. Joe

Id rather have a wire running to a laptop or pc and the £700 odd in my sky rocket. Yeah some free canon software would be good i forgot to install it on my laptop before i came away Joe

Im 19 and so do I, got to love the vintage. Currently on a gap year traveling and although iv been into photography for a couple of years before i came away i seemed to be stuck in a rut of just doing sports photography which did seem to get a bit boring. But now im away im trying all sorts...

Im on a gap year now and i was worried about backing up all my photos. However being away for 6 months i had a little more photos to deal with. However i dont shoot in RAW very often so im not eating up data like you would be. At the moment while im in New Zealand and the next couple of months...

i was in very much the same boat as you a couple of months ago while i was planning for my trip away, currently in New Zealand. I wanted to try my hand at land scape. I dont have any NDs or ND grad filters just a CPL which i dont really bother with and i have been able to get some really nice...

May i put my name down for the Canon after Sam please? Cheers joe

cactus v4 should do me for a few months im going to have to invest in one quality lens before the end of the year to me taking my camera traveling a sensible choice as lugging 4 different lens half way round the world with all my other gear is not really an option. joe
