:plusone: with regards to the jessops 360afd, I also have one, and I am pleased with it. As a starter flash it is ideal, as I was not sure if I would use a flash a lot so did not want to blow big money on the Sony branded ones.

Wow what a very generous aunty indeed. Hopefully your cruise will take in a trip to Barbados, the harbour in Bridgetown is a toggers paradise if so... Likewise, you mentioned St Lucia so the Piton mountains and the st lucia volcano are a must see. It is the only drive through volcano in the...

From one newbie to another, I can only offer you limited help, but I'll share with you what I have learnt. First off what is this "good picture" that everyone talks about, what defines a good shot.... 1. If you are comparing your shots with pics that you have seen taken with a D3 and a...

Thanks for sharing the link, has helped me out, even if not the OP:clap:

As I am learning, I shoot most of the time in Aperture priority. However, I have been playing with Manual Mode quite a bit more of late. I think with time, I will be using manual more and more...:nuts:

Im with snaphappy, I also have the lens, and was fortunate enough to get it in the chrimbo sales for £99! For the money v newbie learning, it is a steal. Images are fine, I am more than happy with them. Yes the af does hunt in low light, but I have not noticed purple fringing as yet. Its...

Om me lappy, and colours not perfect by any means, scored 40. also had difficulty on purples.

1. Sony A200 2. I wanted an entry level body to see if I liked photography. The choice at the time was A200 Nikon D60 or Canon 1000D. I opted for the Sony as it felt better in my hand, and the image stabilisation was in the body and not the lenses. Hence, I could buy second hand glass much...

Not sure if it is any help, but jessops in Lowestoft had a 16-80cz in store today.
