Hw about this taken on my EM5 Mk. III with the standard 12 -45 kit lens at 42mm. Who needs macro - smile!

I have both a mirrorless Olympus SLR AND a Canon EOS650 film camera. I use both regularly - look at my photo web site. I used a phone for a couple of year but realised that I was taking picture rather having "photography" as a hobby. I bought a Canon 90D (as my previous SLR before the phone was...

I bought a Canon 90D last October without checking the market. In March I sold it and bought an Olympus M5 Mk.III. Revelation. Tiny, not-heavy (serious arthritis in hands and wrists). The lenses are very small. The facilities built in are really great - I love the Pro shot (that pre-takes 15...

Not today but last weekend it was a fun run around the Ipswich waterfront so I was out taking photos for my blog. I use a wheelchair and it is often a problem when busy that no one gets out of the way. However, I bumped up the curb and the tyre on one of my front wheels came off. Now these are...

Just done another run around the Ipswich waterfront with my Canon EOS650 (35 - 80 power zoom) loaded with HP5. This time I was looking for interesting textures and shapes. Interestingly, loading these into Photoshop wasn't really necessary as even the Levels Auto didn't really change them - the...

I live on the waterfront here in Ipswich and have a blog where I post about events, happenings, vessel movements and anything else of interest. I also have a photo blog where I concentrate on my photography rather than a location. As this is a location forum, I would like to tell you of my...

Well things moved on. When I bought the 90D late last year, I didn't look at the current market but just bought what I saw as an upgrade to the 80D I had two and 1/2 years ago. After buying it, I saw that the world was moving to mirrorless. Now, I know that I will want to upgrade my camera to...

OK so I have a 90D with these two lenses. Is it really worth all the expense to change to an RP or...........

Thank you.Now I have to workout if it is worth the change.

Hi everyone. I currently have an almost new Canon 90D which I bought last November. I can swap it for a 2nd hand Canon RP mirrorless at almost no cost. I would then need a EF-EOS R Mount Adapter and then I can use my current 18-55 and 55-250 (at least for the time being). However, one of the...

On Ebay there is a nice Canon 80-200mm F/4.5-5.6 EF II Telephoto Zoom Lens at a very reasonable buy it now. My main camera is a 90D but I am also messing around with film and have a nice original EOS650 film camera. Will this lens work with this camera? David

Hello everyone. I am a keen amateur photographer who had a couple of years out. My regular "job" is to photograph the models that come to the table at our local scale plastic model club - IPMS Clacton. I persuaded myself that I didn't need a Canon 80D and a 24mm lens to do this so I sold it all...

As Robin used to say in the original - "Good thinking Batman!" Why didn't I think of that. David

Sorry couple of mistakes. Underexposed of course. I meant HP5. I bought two new rolls from Wet recently so it is new stuff. I mixed the developer using 68f water. Developer was Ilford ID11; IlfoStop; Rapid Fixed and their wetting agent - all new. Developer 1-4 for 9 mins with 10 agitations...

Hi everyone. I went for a roll around the local park on Saturday. I took my EOS650 loaded with HP4 and left my 90D at home - so that I didn't get a set of duplicate photos. It was a cold day and the wheelchair just about managed the path down to the lake. I met a couple of other keen...
