    White spots on pictures.

    Hi All. I was wondering if someone could help with this. As you can see in the picture, there are several white spots. Does anyone know what may be causing this? They are not in most of the pictures I took today, either before or after this. This is a cropped part of the picture to show the...

    Sigma 70-200mm f2.8 DG OS HSM Sport Lens

    Just like to thank you all for your replies. In the end I decided to bite the bullet and purchase the canon rf 70-200 2.8. Yes, very expensive but found SRS systems had knocked £100 off taking it to £2629 where everyone else was charging £2729. I also got a Christmas discount code of a further...

    Sigma 70-200mm f2.8 DG OS HSM Sport Lens

    Thanks Mike. I am now considering an F4 as you can get a used one for around £400. My main concern with that is because I want to do more racing photography the light can get a bit lower at the end of the meeting or if it's cloudy, and the f2.8 would be a help. I have just been reading about...

    Sigma 70-200mm f2.8 DG OS HSM Sport Lens

    Hi. Has anyone had experience of using this lens with an R series camera. I have just purchased an EOS R7. I need a 70 -200 and although the EOS RF 70-200 f2.8 is the obvious lens, at £2,600 is rather expensive for me. The Sigma is around £1200 and has excellent reviews with many saying it as...

    Marks on pictures

    Hi all. Thanks for your replies. I use Dust Aid cleaning swabs and liquid so a reputable brand. Did all the cleaning correctly but don't think that can be the issue as the marks were there before I cleaned it. Have now had a good look at the sensor and it does appear that for some reason there...

    Marks on pictures

    Hi all. First of all hoping I have posted in the right section but am asking for some help please. For various reasons it's been a long time since I've posted on here or been doing photography. I'm at the point to start up again and got my camera (canon 40D) out again. I thought I would clean...

    The Photography Show 2016

    Went today and am there again tomorrow. I live in Coventry so always go by train. 10 mins and just over £2 return. Would agree this was one of the better shows. Didn't buy anything but will probably get some radio triggers tomorrow. Missed the Mark Cleghorn Photographer Academy stand not being...

    Computer spring clean

    I'm trying to clean up my lap top which seems to have used a lot of space on the C drive. I ran Ccleaner and defraggler which cleared up about 11GB. However, it is still showing that I have used about 57GB of space. I can't understand what is using all this space. I don't have hardly any...

    Time lapse photography

    This thread inspired mre to have a go myself. Something completely different to what I normally do. It was only a trial to see how everything worked. I used a 40D tethered to laptop and used EOS utility. 0zylGsuDutU
