I went to a wildlife wetlands today and got home and realised there is some dirt or something smudged on the lens. I have tried to gently remove it using a microfibre cloth but had no luck. I didn't want to apply too much pressure in case of damaging the lens. I know there are a lot of lens...

Oh wow...the price shot up after adding it to the basket :( Are there any good value sites that are reliable and will give the true value before adding it to the basket?

Has anyone used this site before? What's it like? How would you rate the service? Thanks

Thank you :) I'll have a look at where you suggested. I don't come from Cheshire way, only living here at uni so have no idea of the places around really :shake:

I was wondering if anyone has been here? What's it like for wildlife and photography, especially water fowl. I'm considering going tomorrow if the weather holds up to get some photos. Also, any other places with a good variety of water fowl near Nantwich? Thanks

Okay, this might be a stupid question but what do lens hoods do? Are they worth investing in? Also, I've noticed there different size a shape ones. Which ones are best? Are different ones for different things? I've currently got the standard 18-55mm kit lens for my Canon 450D. I'm also...

Hi, my D-SLR arrived today and I'm very happy with it (The dog not so much, think she's got bored with me using her to experiment with the settings :lol:). The camera is a Canon EOS 450D, second hand and in very good shape. I was wondering if there are any good books to help me get to...

I've just purchased a second hand Canon EOS 450D. It comes with the 18-55mm kit lens. I've been looking around at other lenses but not really sure what I'm looking at (hope that doesn't sound stupid). Is there any other lenses I should consider looking at? I've been looking at the Tamron...

Thank you everyone for your help :) I'll check out the places you've suggested. Also, what are 'grey dealers'? I've found a reasonable priced Canon 450D that I'm currently considering. Does anyone rate them as a first time D-SLR?

I'm currently looking to upgrade from my bridge to a D-SLR. I've been looking at a few used camera sites, a couple of shops and eBay. My main issue is I'm not exactly sure on how much I should be paying for a used camera, and I don't want to be paying too much. A lot on eBay seem to go...

Hi, I have just joined the forum. I enjoy photography (though I'm probably not very good) and messing around with my camera. Preference is animal photography and nature. I currently own a Fuji S2500HD but I'm looking for a nikon D-SLR to upgrade to. Kelsey
