Thanks for the tip on keeping it separate to my camera and away from my lens. Watched the videos on taking it apart and it's looks quite fun and challenging. Will give it a go when it affects photos, hopefully that's a long time to come. Ordered a sterilising UV light and if it's fungus...

Thanks everyone for confirming it's fungus. Well it's a used lens I just bought. Thought I got a bargain since it cost £120ish for canon 70-300 IS DO since I like the compact size. The company is happy for a full refund or give me a partial refund of £20 making the it only £100ish. I quite...

Hopefully someone might be able to let me know if this is fungus or some sort of dirt in the lens? Unfortuntely its behind the rear glass element so cant get a cloth to get rid of it :( Never seen fungus on a lens before, but i thought it being so big it would have fine lines growing out of...

Not been active for many years as my kids have grown up and not cute anymore lol. Just started again as my missus booked a puffin trip and so its got me going again. Will be posting and wanted to see if there was anything in the classifieds to updae my kit. How do i get access again?

Just wondered if anyone has used a canon EF converter for the micro 4/3 rds cameras? As i've seen 2 types of converters on ebay.

I've just brought a GF2 for my wife and will be testing it out with this weekend. And will see how it feels compared to my ageing 5D. I thought it also be good that i could use it for video as it be an expensive upgrade from 5D to 5D mk3. Was the photo manual focus or auto? The shutter speed...

Do you get tax or customs to pay when its delivered? Or the price quoted £1995 covers all? So tempted to upgrade from a 5D Mk1. Also does anyone use their MK3 for video? Is it easy to use like a camcorder? just fancy been able to take videos aswell :D

The DOF at 1.2, 1.4 etc is very low so i never recompose and shoot. So i wasn't sure how you can select individual af points since there are so many of them. Also with the mk1 and a presuem on mk2 you can use the joystick to select the focus point to use very quickly, not sure on the mk3 with so...

Im looking to upgrade to a mk3 not sure how i would focus since i'm used to the middle focus af point on my 5D. I tend to shoot with f1.2 to 2 - so wondered with all the af points on a mk3 how you will do that since dof on 1.2 is very shallow. Hope it makes sense.

would you feel safe with these strap as i presume someone can just come behind you and cut the strap off and run off with your camera? But i do like the idea instead of using my neck to hold the camera.

I brought an 85L MK1 a few years back and haven't regretted in buying it - glad i did as the prices for used are much more higher now :( Shooting in 1.2 is fun and also its amazing how much light it sucks in. I find the picture quality, colours are great and sharp even at 1.2 , compared to my...

I think PC World and Currys are the same - so you can check your local Currys :)

I was looking at these awell but read in a few places that they were not as good as the major brands in keeping their charge even though they are meant to be LSD.

All my rechargeables batteries are crap and so i've decided to look for the best price of Sanyo Eneloops and stumbled across this in PC World (Solihull) http://www.amazon.co.uk/GP-Battery-Charger-Rechargeable-Batteries/dp/B000T9XDBA/ref=pd_rhf_shvl_2 for a price of £4.47 :woot: They are marked...

ordered one just incase if we get lucky :)
