Interesting thread Pat. I knew you through Match Fishing etc, way before I met you on here/Flickr, so perfectly understand what you are trying to achieve. My earliest "pro" work was with Sea Angler, and I remember getting a similar "lecture" about how to take pics with Fujifilm many years ago...

Intersting comment Mike. I always try to be mega - careful when changing. Had a friend try to clean a sensor on a 20D - Fail Had it cleaned at Focus (30 quid) - Fail Bought some cleaning swabs on here - Result :)

Both my local rags, part of bigger groups, do not pay for images from anyone, however good and whatever the subject may be. However, they are quite happy to accept "reader photo's". One of them actually has a Flickr group, and by joining that group you give them permission to use your...

Thanks for the comments. On doing a bit more research I agree with Cuthbert :( The Mark II came out in Sept 2010 and is compatable, but the Mark I isn't!! Not even in manual mode. Ah well, eBay it is then :)

Hi guys. Picked up my 5D II yesterday, had a quick play last night and a (very) quick scan through the instructions. Fitted my Nissin 622 flash unit and it doesn't seem to work "properly", the quick look at the instuctions seemed to indicate that it won't work properly, only Canon flash...

A friend of mine was asked to sell a full and exclusive copyright on a picture, he asked for £2000 and was knocked down to £1600 He then went back and took more photos of the subject.

Not sure what you mean by that Beagletorque.

H type, 256MB, Fuji card came with the camera.

Clappers. Tried that, only had a FAT 32 or a FAT option. "Could not format disk", then "Windows was unable to format disk" pop up windows appeared. Marcel. I am afraid that that was my gut instinct, backed up by the above :(

Hi everyone. I have a Fuji Finepix A500, as a carry everywhere compact, but it if showing a message in the display window. A Red box with bold white lettering - CARD NOT INITIALIZED - and it won't let me take any pics. I have tried formatting the card with no success, so presumed the card...

Holyhead Breakwater, Penmon, Llandwyn Island are all on Anglesey. ogwen Valley, Llanberis, Beddgelert, Capel Curig are all in Snowdonia.

I work there :) here is the link... http://www.angleseycircuit.com/ As pricey says you can get to most of the track, but the popular places fill up quick on race days. Click on fixtures, Track Days are free admission, charges vary for competitive racing. Can be cold with a north wind blowing...

I have a 20D and regularly take the ISO up to 800 or even 1600, dependant on light, for indoor shots with no flash. Manual. ISO 800 f4.0 1/30 - 1/20 Try it, you've nothing to loose.

Try the car park at RAF Valley, on Anglesey or drive to Maelog Lake at Rhosneigr. Hawks are in and out of Valley all day, occassional SAR helicopters + others. Also th odd "strange" plane too. You may even see HRH too. There are regular plane "anoraks" there and no trouble form security...

With pictures everybody likes different things, so what is "great" to someone is not to the next person. I have pics up in two cafe's, and reception at work, on a sale or return basis. The cafe owner gets free pics to decorate the oremises and I get an outlet. Change the pics regularly and...
