    Any sensor cleaning while you wait places in Midlands

    Morning Glyn, I would recommend H. Lehmann in Stoke, they are very good and very knowledgeable. But I have also used these http://www.warehouseexpress.com/buy-digipads-starter-kit-type-1-for-1-5-1-6x/p1016578 before with good results, just make sure you get the correct sized swabs for you sensor...

    7D AF problems

    It was H. Lehmann in Stoke On Trent and from memory the technician was called Jeff. And as stated, as well as this Firmware it also required calibration doing. And in the future I shall just keep this type info to myself, as it seems that there are people on this forum who seem to have such...

    7D AF problems

    Well, your always welcome to your opinion, but all I can say is, we were told about this by 1 person (happened to be a Canon rep who was at a Jessops store) then went to the Canon service centre and explain the problem without mentioning what we had previously been told, and without prompting...

    7D AF problems

    It seems to be primarily a problem locking onto moving targets or miss focusing resulting in a slightly out of focus image. My mate was chatting to a guy in Jessops who mentioned that he should take it to be checked over, and sure enough the service centre admitted that they'd had loads of 7D AF...

    7D AF problems

    Guys, sorry if this has already been posted but thought it was worth mentioning. My friend has been having problems with the AF not locking on at all or being slightly out of focus, so as I was going to my local Canon service centre he came along with his 7D as well. Turns out it is a known...

    Bird of prey locations

    Hi Trev, Sorry for not replying quicker but things have been a bit hectic. I did receive your pm thanks. I wasn't able to open the images though as it says they were not available. However from your directions I thin I know where you are describing. I did try to go by the scout huts the other...

    Photoshop or Lightroom?

    I have recently started using Lightroom 3 over PS and I also bought this book http://www.amazon.co.uk/Adobe-Photoshop-Lightroom-Digital-Photographers/dp/0321700910/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1299083775&sr=1-1 Which is definitely worthwhile. Found out so much that I would never have found...

    Photography courses

    I have also subscribed to the practical Photography £10 boot camp via TopCashBack. However, it does appear from the description that after the 6 issues you will automatically be billed £23 for the next 6 issues and that you can't cancel after the first 6 as it is a 12 month contract. From the...

    Bird of prey locations

    Hi, I am looking to get some shots of birds of prey and have seen a few places dotted around the country that have daily shows. The question is which one is the best one to visit as obviously I don't want to spend 2-3 hours travelling there if its not going to be worth it. The places I've...

    Is this site trusted?

    Don't use them, I just bought a 100-400L off them, they are cheap because they dont charge VAT, but when the item arrives you may have to pay VAT and import duty depending where they sent it from (they are a Hong Kong company). There communication is appauling, they said my lens was in stock and...
