I didn't go this year but past years were good. Thoughts on this year ?.

Thanks @PeteNaples - did you use Stanley Productions personally ? Any other recommendations

I have a number of home movies on VHS and camcorder formats. Can anyone recommend a reliable, quality and reasonably priced conversion service ? I have googled and there are many but looking for recommendations based on experience. Thanks.

Thanks for all the suggestions. I keep going off to look them up. I know i am a bit all over the place but there seem to be a lot of options. One I came across is the Panny LX15 - anyone with experience of this one who can comment on its performance ?

I like the fact a GF6 is small but is the AF faster than the Nikon ? Also, worried that a 14mm lens will overly compromise on portraits - any experience with that lens ? Also, any opinions on the LX100 compared to some of the other cameras mentioned here such as the TZ100, XQ2 etc. In...

I have been looking a bit more today and realise it will be a struggle at this budget. What can I get up to £300 ? The Nikon Coolpix A sounds like it could be good at that price range. Any experience with the Nikon as a street camera ? Also, trawling through the classifieds here, I see that...

So what is the general consensus on the Apple event last night ? It seems it was all focussed on AI, is it worth buying a 16 for the AI features ? As regards the Watch 10, I can't tell if it is a decent upgrade from the 9 - opinions ?

16Gb instead of 8Gb as standard is a spec as opposed to new tech to be announced tonight.

That looks great. I have a few tapes lying around. I need to dig out the camcorder and see if it powers up. If not, are there any services I can send the tapes to get them digitised that people recommend ?

I am looking to get back to photography and interested in a small and compact camera I can carry around, as small as possible that I can whip out and take good photos, low light included. I heard that the Leica Q cameras are good for that but too expensive for me. I want something cheap, so...

Porsche Curves was always a good location, sitting on the grass banks.

Welcome. Lots of inspiration and advice available here.

Welcome to TP and an interesting topic to start

Every where I look, prices are going up. Surely the official inflation figure is wrong.
