Hi I have plenty of Harrington in competition if you are interested in them

I agree with you where CS4 and Lightroom etc are a little bit of an overkill for the basic editing that goes on at pitchside and Elements would probably be fine for that but for captioning and sorting then Photomechanic is an absolute beast for speed and simplicity. For the code replacement...

I normally try and keep the 6:4 ratio and let the papers do the rest. You'd be amazed at the difference between what you submit and what's printed.

I'd love to Gary, I really would but I can't let this one slide unfortunately :) All the metering references above were EXAMPLES so you could see what I mean by exposure. They weren't meant to be taken literally as I can't imagine too many people running onto a pitch with a lightmeter! You've...

Attack?? I'm sure Gary and many others are very helpful to you and others but it's not very helpful when you are being told incorrect information. If people can't see what is wrong here then that's fine but what Gary is saying in this case is just nonsense. Exposure is exposure regardless...

I give up. I don't know you but it seems from other posts that you are a working photographer so I presume this is all some kind of joke and you are taking the **** out of me with these replies. And if you're not then I'd suggest three things. One - type this entire post out in some other...

Don't worry it's not going to happen! :) Unless the camera is broken!

But that test you did is the same as taking a picture of a horse, then one of an elephant and then another of a dog. They are completely different???? Also, the first one is underexposed a fair bit, the second a little bit and the third is about right. If you had used f4 and 1/50 for all three...

Maybe to you it is but not to me. If you take a meter reading of a footballer running around in a field and the meter reads 1/640 at f2.8 and ISO1000 for example. You now go to take a picture of the footballer. You have two lenses - a 24mm f2.8 and a 300 f2.8 - do you have to take a...

Is this correct??? I would have thought that the exposure settings would be the same no matter what kind of lens you use once the light on the subject stays the same. It doesn't make sense that they change depending on the lens??? Is 1/200 at f2.8 and ISO1600 not the same with all lenses and...

I'm in a similar predicament. I have a 300 2.8 IS and the opportunity has come up to upgrade to a 400 2.8 IS. I do a wide variety of sports so I'm not sure what to do. I do equestrian, horseracing, rugby, football, golf etc. As most of the stuff is during the day, the 300 with a 1.4 is...

You can also be full sure that the FA or any other organisation for that matter wouldn't have to think too long and hard if Getty were to offer them a big bag of cash for exclusive access. They already accept it for tv rights and photographic rights ain't that much different at the end of the...

That definitely is not true when it comes to the printed press. If it was then you wouldn't see half the crap printed. All they care about are deadlines and cost. If you can get it to them reliably, fast and cheap then you're onto a winner.

Forget about the foam. It's a nightmare. You can't change it once cut and it deteriorates badly over time. Get yourself the dividers instead
