Thanks for the clarification. Just came back and was looking for this. I second the question on what it takes to reinstate, any updates?

I haven’t been on the forums for a while but I’m glad some of you found the review useful! Still no better alternative in my opinion.

So many options! Very grateful to all of you. Instead of relaying the information I will just send the link to this thread and he can decide for himself.

Thank you both very much! I have to admit I’m intrigued to consider one for myself at that price.

A friend asked for some help in upgrading from his phone to a budget camera in the £200 range. I know very little about that end of the market but I’m inclined to tell him to get a better phone instead of a camera based on what I have seen but thought it better to confirm here. He is mainly...

Screenshot of the donation confirmation. For reason behind donation, in addition to father in law I added that this is to thank the talkphotography.co.uk community. I will reach out individually as suggested to get hi res pictures once I get home. Thank you all for your kind help!

Just realised I did not respond to all posts. @ChrisR @moggi1964 On the negative front, this was taken by a professional photographer at the event, close to impossible to track now. I’m getting another wild idea to create a small album out of this for our wedding anniversary in August. I’ll...

I don’t know where to start. This forum is full of genuinely wonderful people. I wasn’t expecting much of a response but to see so many spend their time for this request is touching. I showed my wife the thread and she went through all of your messages. She asked me to save all edits and is...

Thanks @Lllewellyn, just to make the skin tones and dress more vivid like I recall the original photo. I don’t think we can get any detail back from his suit but would be great if possible. I’m getting antsy thinking about the result!

Thank you all and apologies for the late response. Between the heatwave and some unexpected workload I did not have time to scan the photo until now. Here is the image as a JPEG, scanned at the highest settings available (Canon Pixma 8050). Happy to mail the photo if it helps with the repair...

I’m looking to have one photograph of my wife and her late father restored. Are there any reliable services I can send it to? I’m no good with photoshop and given how much it means to her I would rather get it done by an expert. Not sure if this is the right place to post. Mods feel free to...

This is not so much a technical review as it is impressions of the two main 3rd party macro lens options for Fuji X. Compared to many of the posters frequenting this forum, I am a relative babe with rather limited (albeit enthusiastically earned) experience. Unlike many here who have taken the...

Just make sure you get the H CPUs and not those that end with U. The specs may look similar but the U ones have lower power limits and throttle very quickly under load. You will pay more but you get a good CPU in return. This lettering convention conveniently applies to both Intel and AMD.

I bought this Lenovo Legion 5 @£1000 a few months ago and it runs very well https://www.currys.co.uk/gbuk/gaming/pc-gaming/gaming-laptops/lenovo-legion-5-15-6-gaming-laptop-amd-ryzen-7-rtx-3060-512-gb-ssd-10220328-pdt.html CPU: Ryzen 7 - 5800H RAM: 8GB DDR4-3200 (since updated to 32GB @£140)...

I have noticed the same WiFi problem. It is intermittent and happens after I wake up the laptop from sleep. Connecting to WiFi takes a little longer than Windows 10 but is stable. Stability is fine, takes some time to get used to the new UI but the settings are vastly superior to Windows 7 and...
