    what tripod?

    If your looking for Manfrotto, red snapper make very simular products, very good quaility but a lot cheaper and they used to offer a 10|% discount for TP members (not sure if they still do but would guess so). Worth looking them up.

    Canon EOS 400D thoughts and Buying second hand tips.

    As mark says its worth paying the extra for I.S if you can. It really depends what you do with it as to whether you'd want to go telephoto or not. My fav is my 24-105mm L series but that set me back £500 second hand. Marks suggestions are all good ones.

    Hi guys

    Hi Ben, If you've not brought yet its worth looking in the for sale threads. I got a lovely telephoto lens from Steve the stinky when I was starting out and its still my fav now.

    Anyone picked a Nissin flash over canon?

    No doubt an age old question but I'm in need of some help chosing a flash. I have a canon 40D and its for things like weddings and Portraits. I recently read a review in a mag that put a Nissin above the Canon 430 and 580. Any one have any experience with this make. All advise greatly...

    Panasonic or Canon? Anyone got both?

    Thanks, this looks good.. This sounds like a pretty good spec and good reviews, plus only £149 from Play.com. I like the size of it and its a wide angle right? How is it with Video? I'm assuming it has sound? I thinks its only samsung that seem to miss off the sound.
