Beginners luck? :P It depends on the magazine, they will all have their regulars who they know they will get consistent results with, so for you as you seem to only do portrait work you will be an unknown entity, it's risk vs reward and the only way I could see them agreeing to have you do...

Hi folks, Our Camera Club (Royston Photographic Society) has arranged for Will Cheung to come in to do a talk the 3rd May. This is sure to be an interesting evening and we are opening this up for non-members to attend for a small fee (£6) and we have a limited number of tickets available...

Assuming I can say on here, Jacobs, £569, it was £599 at Camerworld and £800 at Calumet (O_O) I checked prices before I left and WEX were selling online at £613 I think.

People with Backpacks and Cameras, I felt like I was fighting through Kings Cross on a Friday Evening :( On the plus side I did pickup a nice new 17-40 f/4L at a very good price Oh, and it was nice to fondle the 1DX (wasn't fussed about the 5d3)

Cheers, I'll run a few little tests!

Hi all, Upgraded to a 5d2 last week :), I guess I must stop pixel peeping, maybe the calibration is wrong or I'm just plainly expecting too much but..... Is this noisy to you? It does to me but I think I've been looking at it for too long, thinking it's noisy at 100% 100% Crop, 1/200sec...

Thanks, I've had a recommendation for a local supplier too so I should be getting a sample this week but the price quoted was pretty good. That was for printing onto foamex board (the sort used in Next/M&S etc) Will see what the client says and go from there although at that size, Foamex is...

Hi folks, I've been asked to price up and supply 10-15 72"x48" prints While the client hasn't yet decided on the final process (ie, gloss, matt, canvas or acrylic) I do need to quote on all 4 finishes at the above size. DSCL and Loxley don't seem to be able to supply up to that size...

Yes, I was thinking on the automotive section to have more specific galleries, split into different shoots or models of cars for example. I'm torn between getting as much info about what I do on the front page at the expense of real estate for photo's though. What do you think? Absolutely no...

Honestly, I change my mind as often as a BBC Weather Forecast. I'm looking for some good, honest C&C on my site please. I'm not overly happy with it, can't quite place my finger on it. Software wise, it's currently using Slideshowpro which is great. I'm thinking of going fullscreen perhaps on...

This is the kit I've recently purchased, recycle time on full power for two lights @ 8secs does seem about right although I've not timed it but then recycle time of that duration doesn't bother me, there is a fast option on the pack but I've not used that (not needed to, perfectly happy waiting...
