So you'd be alright with the new sony's as they're SLT then?

ok fair enough

As the requirement to view the classifieds forum has now been lowered to 25 posts, that means I now qualify. Can I be added to the list please

right click on the image, click which size you wish to view

I know people in Newmarket and visit regularly, I'm living in Leicester at the minute. Never been to Bury St Edmunds though

I think the idea behind the 'every picture has been cropped' is that you decide the 'crop', if it has not been cropped it would be a 360 shot all around you. Even if you take a step forward you are effectively 'cropping' the image

It's been posted before on here but I'll post it again I've used http://www.bestphotographybooks.com/ to look for some books, but also it links you to the amazon.com website to buy them so I have a look at reviews on there aswell I'm not sure if it gets updated with new books or not, so...

I would of thought frames per second would be a big factor here, d3000 has 3fps, i would definitely shoot on continuous mode. Maybe try on the driving range to get more practice as on an actual round of golf the amount of shots you get to take to get practice on is limited

Set it on aperture priority mode (A) and you should be able to set your aperture and have the camera sort out shutter speed and flash power

I've heard good things about this book, not read it myself though
