    Need advice; shooting my first wedding!

    Thanks, I was only planning to use the tripod and shutter release for the group shots outside the venue only - the rest of the wedding, I had planned to just use it in hand... :)

    Need advice; shooting my first wedding!

    Yes, I know what the venue is like inside, it's our local civic centre and it's floor to ceiling windows, so lots of natural light. I do need to speak to the registrar and see whether they allow flash though, I had planned to do that on the day..?

    What's the best all-round lens for portraiture?

    I just can't get that crisp, clean finish. I must say, my nifty fifty was bought second-hand off the classified forum on here - and I'm not actually convinced it's working properly... but I;ve never owned one from new to compare it to. And my kit lens doesnt have the IS function that the...

    What's the best all-round lens for portraiture?

    I have a Canon 450D and I have the kit lens it came with and also a nifty fifty. However, I'm looking to up the quality - soI know this means parting with some cash for a better lens. I'm looking for a good all round lens - any suggestions? :)

    I'm back!!

    Hmm, perhaps some of you wondered where I went, though I suspect 99.9% didn't notice and/or care where I went.. Anyway, I am back from being a big, fat, pregnant balloon. My little girl is now 2 weeks old, I can fit back into my size 10 Replay jeans and I'm ready to pick my camera back up...

    Snapfish order - appalling. Their fault or mine?

    I agree - I did try and calibrate it using an online thing.. Also, have posted lots of my pics on this site and had many complimentary comments re. the processing - I can't assume that all of the people that commented also have un-calibrated monitors - but then you can never tell what...

    Snapfish order - appalling. Their fault or mine?

    Sooo... I got my snapfish order... Firstly, the 'matt' paper is EXACTLY what I had hoped it would be :clap: Secondly? All the colours seem completely out.. I'm not sure if it's my fault? Could it be my fault due to my processing of the pictures? For a lot of my processing I used...
