Thanks for moving it. I hadn't realised it was in the wrong forum. I have read something about hot pixels and will look into that.

Yesterday I took some photos of my buddha statue. When I put the photos on the computer I noticed little white and red spots (really tiny) at several places on the photo. I shoot RAW (fyi) and I don't have clue where these come from. Does anyone know what they are? They can best be...

Almost forgot: will this help at all?

Now, before I begin, I will admit that I'm not very good at it myself. What I do know however is that for panning you need to set the camera in shutter priority. That way the camera will pick the appropriate apperture for you, so you don't have to worry about that. As far as focussing goes...

That's very helpful, thanks. My main problem as far as location goes is that I won't be able to have a look at all! It's in London at the end of March and I'm in South Yorkshire without a car. They don't seem to want an official photo shoot either, so I'm stuck with the ceremony and the...

I believe you. :D I haven't had the chance to find a photo of me to upload. Don't have that many. That's what you get when you're behind the camera...

Anything I can get my hands on, really. My favourites: cars and concerts. I have been looking into portraits as well and I am learning, but I don't think I'm that good. Anyway, the bride thinks my photos are wonderful (not being a photographer herself) and they really don't have a budget for...

There's a lot of weddings, eh? Well, no money to be made here, it's a favour for a friend on a very very very low budget wedding. The situation: only a few people (not even 10 in total, I believe), bride will not be wearing white, but a warm colour of some sort, no big reception either...

Sadly I registered to this forum after his birthday otherwise I would have sent a card. What a sad story. It must be very very very hard for all those around this brave young one. I wish all of them a lot of strength.

Thank you all. This should keep me busy for a while.

I've just moved here in October 2008 from the Netherlands and I'm obviously trying to find my way around. Up to now I haven't been able to find a camera and photography equipment shop anywhere near where I live (Barnsley). Through Google I did find there's a Jessops store in Meadowhall, but...

Hi! Found this forum by chance, must be my lucky day. It looks like I will have fun here. I'm Nicky, currently 39 years old (and counting). Moved to the UK from the Netherlands in October 2008. I've been taking photos for as long as I can remember (first, very bad, photo I made at 4...
