Hello all, Just wondering if some of you may be able to offer an opinion on the above 2 lenses? I have the option of buying one or the other, and I'm struggling to decide without having owned either. I'll be using solely for landscape photography, and being used on my Lumix S5 (Canon with...

Just wondering if there if an area on the forum, where folk can ask for/offer assistance on identification of kit, other than just a new thread? I've been looking around to try and ID this lens and what mount it is, but not sure where to start. Can anyone help? Thanks. Dan.

excellent! Thanks for the advice both. I'll have a mooch. Ta'

Hi Thanks for taking the time to comment. Sorry, you'll have to walk me though, as I don't actually know what I'm looking for. I currently have the kit 18-55 lens and I've had a quick go with my old mans canon 70-300...so I suppose I'm after something similar/would do the same job...or close...

Hi All, Still very new to photography. I have a 'preloved' Sony A390 and, after having a morning with my Dads Canon 4000D + 70-300mm lens, I have been looking at lenses (you know how it is.) Obviously with me still be very new to the hobby, I'm still a bit wary of getting carried away and...

Chris, Baz, Toni, Tom, Andy, Ian, Jason, Steve. Thanks for the input and tips gents, ill try to keep it all in mind when I'm next out. Which will be tomorrow!

Thanks Steve and Tom. Number 1, was an attempt at a leading line and catching a reflection...in an ideal world that big ugly bush would've been a castle or something interesting to look at. Hey ho... Number 2, I just liked the look of the running water and reflection. Number 3, was an...

Ok, So I've been out today for the first attempt. I really enjoyed being out, purely with the intension of taking photographs. I wasn't sure what photographs I was planning on taking though, and I think this is where I struggled most (Apart from not actually knowing what I'm doing obviously). I...

Lovely Jubbly. Thanks for the tips Baz. (y)

Right then...I'm all set. I've got me some books to swat up on, camera and SD card, gonna get my hands on some of the suggested software, and I'm fully armed with bags of enthusiasm. I'm out tomorrow to look at some stuff in the cold. Probably take a few crap snaps while I'm there. Wish me...
