    the rain finaly went this evening and i was rewarded with a beautiful starry sky so it was time to test out the dlsr on a long exposure, and boy was i impressed! this is the dslr on an 8 sec exposure (so much brighter than my compact on 60 sec), couldn't believe how bright it was! just have...

    How long is a piece of string?

    Cheers, borrowed a friends Nikon D50 to play with to see if I will cope with the bulk of a dlsr, something lovely about that bulk though. Inspired me to hunt the attic for my old Konica TCX slr, eventually found it so used it for some target practise with the D50 :) Brought back old...

    How long is a piece of string?

    Well the string is getting longer! i've now included CSC cameras in my list, the Panasonic G5 is nice, and the G3 is now only £199 in Argos, but if I get a lens changer, do I go all the way with a DLSR :help:

    How long is a piece of string?

    Hello all, I'm looking to move my photography up a level after sticking with compacts since digital appeared (I did have a basic SLR 20 years ago though). Currently using Panasonic FS10 and a FT25 for mainly landscape photos in the mountains, quite fond of night photography too, especially...
