    'Ultimate' DSLR Accessory - Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV)

    Now I like that a lot, not sure if I'd get more fun out of flying it or getting shots. Actually I would probably be to nervous to fly it, think of the cost if you get it wrong!!

    Going to the Olympic velodrome tomorrow

    Hi there, was also at the velodrome this afternoon and was worried about getting my camera in so went minimalist with a 70-200 f4 and 28mm f1.8. Lighting is pretty decent and there are some good spots that are cordoned off for photographers. I have put a post up about twenty minutes ago with...

    Olympics and DSLR's - Test event

    Hi, Having read the thread regarding taking DSLR's into the Olympic Park I was a bit nervous about taking my camera up to the test event at the Velodrome today. I needn't have worried as after a brief security check I was ushered into the Velodrome to snap away to my hearts content. I am...

    Red Bull Minidrome // Manchester

    Great vid, would have liked to seen the music built up as the event came together with a bit of crowd noise for the final sequence but apart from that bit of critique its a great videography. Great work.

    sigma 17-70 f2.8~4 DC MACRO OS HSM

    Hi there, I have had one of these lenses for just over a year now and love it. Had heard about soft focus issues on this lens but decided to get one anyway and haven't regretted it one bit as the one I have is pin sharp. Go for it!

    Mountain bike video

    Hi Iodious, some of the footage was slowed down a couple of notches but the rest was at normal speed. Aidan the rider is pretty handy and the trails flow really well so getting a bit of speed was no problem. Already looking forward to getting some more footage, just need the weather to co-operate!

    Most creative time to work?

    So my 9 month old daughter decided that this morning 4:20am would be a great time to wake up and want feeding. After getting her fed and put back down to sleep my brain was working overtime and there was no chance of getting back to sleep so I got up and flicked on the computer to edit some...

    Flip camcorders

    Think they are pretty good however I read that Cisco (parent company for Flip) were shutting the operation down? If you choose not to get a Flip there are loads of this type of camcorder on the market which are pocketable and record in HD.

    What is up with people bidding on Ebay?

    Its all about paying a price that you see fit for the item. If you think £6 is good value for a 6" piece of rope then go for it but I reckon that 99.9% of the public would think your bonkers! I have bought and sold a few bits on Ebay and have been suprised at how much some items go for and...
