    No you're right - out of focus. She was jumping around a lot so I guess off camera flash and someone holding it for me near the front would have been easier.... As for wide open, a 70-200 f2.8 cost an arm and a leg and I haven't got anything wider!!! Thanks guys ps - I ended up using the...

    Mmmmm.... I know what you mean - had half a thought to give her a bit of a helping hand, but didn't. She still rocks like you wouldn't believe - very very good gig and I wouldn't say I know her stuff at all Thanks!

    Hi all This is the first time I've really experimented with low-light and no flash and I think the results came out ok, despite the fact that I didn't have the metering set up correctly I think! Anyway, some still wildly out of focus, so any tips on how I can push the shutter speed up without...

    what other editing software apart from photoshop do you use?

    LR 2.7 and Photoshop 3 (4 at work) Recently upgraded to LR 2.7 and found things to have slowed down on my Macbook pro - would suggest sticking to earlier versions or going full hog to 3 as people seem to really like it Pete

    Anyone using Zazzle.co.uk?

    Hi you lot I've been approached by someone local who wants some prints of the town and surrounds and was cruising Google for print/framing solutions when I came across zazzle.co.uk - can't see that it's high end of the market in terms of framing, but it has a nifty way of letting you sell...

    70-200, 2.8 - Sigma or Nikon?

    Yet another vote for the Nikon I'm afraid - fantastic piece of kit and solidly built. I'm very pleased with mine and I'd suggest you would be to. Why not try them both in the shop and see which one feels best for you? Pete

    Sigma 24-70 2.8 how sharp should it be?

    Well I've been playing around again with the lens and generally different results again to last night with a bit more ambient light. One portrait handheld of my flatmate with some pretty harsh off-camera flash came out just fine at f3.5. Some other shots weren't as crisp with the same...
