Photos look fab - well done for your 1st attempt!

We have done all of ours in eggshell, much nicer than gloss. If you're painting directly onto raw wood (pine) i would strongly suggest buying a knot sealer or an proper knot-sealing primer as the knots will seep resin through within a few weeks and it looks awful. Yes - we made that mistake...

Another airgunner here, had plenty of springers and PCPs (PreCharged Pneumatics) in the past. Can highly recommend the Daystate Mk3, get the regulated version for very consistent shot to shot accuracy. These work on an electronic trigger and solenoid system which makes them near enough silent...

I have a Dakine Photo Mission, will do all what you want and more, can't recommend it highly enough, had it for 3 years now - awesome! Review here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JOpvKwL7O-8 Jonathan

Meter off the tarmac or grass? For flying planes? I nearly always use centre weighted, can make the sky blow if the plane has been painted in dark colours though... JB

If you were in Av mode, all you probably needed to do was up the ISO a bit more, as it has been said many times before, it is better to have a grainy photo, rather than a blurred one! ...or use flash ;-) Jonathan

So do you have a press pass, or are you just an "average joe" and turned up, did you go suited and booted? I would like to get amongst the celebs and give this ago, just for the experience and atmosphere... There are a few in there where a slightly higher shutterspeed would have been...

A friend of mine has narrowed their search down to these two cameras. Can anyone pick between the two? Both have good reviews, the only down side to the Sony one looks to be Sony Duo memory sticks and the non-orthodox usb cable. These are the cameras is question: SONY DSCW215.CEH...

Search for Intro 2020 and ask them for a quote, they re-aligned the elements in a Tamron lens i used to have. Jonathan

Think i'll give the cheap ones a blast, see how i get on then if i'm struggling i can always pass them on and get the Kenkos. Cheers peeps, Jonathan

Hi Folks, Just looking into purchasing some extension tubes for macro work, and have found some really cheap ones ont'ebay, some as little as £8 posted. I have also been looking at the Kenko ones which seem to be going for around £75-£85 second hand. Before I potentially splash out on the...

Don't you just press "up" on the d-pad when you are viewing the image so you cycle through the displays. Jonathan

error, please ignore

Maybe i'm getting confused, but I have used a D200, 300 and 700 and they have all "remembered" the settings i had before in manual, shutter priority and aperture priority with the exception of ISO. I just thought that was normal. I'm confused as to why it would change at all? Joanthan

Not sure if this has been posted yet, or if this is the right place to put this, but I just got sent this from Nikon: - D700 Firmware Update 1.02 now available - Dear Customer, Our records show that you are a registered owner of a D700 Digital SLR camera. We would like to inform you...
