Thanks Thunderbird. I can look after your 35mm whilst you're waiting for a charger if you like ;).

Loving the portability and quality these give. I got it to use as a simple walkabout camera to use as is but really want a 35mm prime for it now. Astley Park Sunset by Gnasher68, on Flickr Astley Hall by Gnasher68, on Flickr

I got mine last week for those occasions where my 5D is too conspicuous. I've been really impressed with the picture quality and the good thing is my wife's willing to use it so I may appear on the odd photo now! Anyone else noticed a spot keep appearing in the middle of the 16-50 front lens...

Canon 135mm F/2 used off here. Picking up tomorrow :D. Photos to follow :thumbs:.

Ah. Sorry Rob, I was on about something different. The part of the grip that you insert into the camera battery compartment has contacts at the top to transfer battery power to the camera. These are the two slots I mentioned. I've had a grip where the metal contacts in one of the slots were...

Rob, Just in case you aren't aware, the round pins on top of the battery grip are the communications ones for the buttons/joystick. Battery power is transferred through the two slots in the middle of the post between the two sets of round pins (if that makes sense!) The contacts in these can...

Sounds like your 430EX needs looking at. I have 3 different types on NiMH batteries (7dayshop 2800mAh, Panasonic Infinium 2100mAh and Fuji 2700mAh). All work fine on mine.

Thank you all for the responses though my wife is unimpressed having just read Canon Bobs comments over my shoulder! Regarding the flash button, I thought this was only for the built in flash. I do get the flash symbol by default in any setting and the flash fires. the button doesn't seem to...

Nope. ISO fixed on 100 for both.

Hi all, I have an issue that is probably me being incredibly dense but need your intellect to point it out to me. I have a Canon 550d which I am trying to use a 430EX II flashgun with. If I set the camera to 'P' I am given both speed and aperture by the camera. If I now select 'AV' and set...

Just to keep you all in the loop. I have received a reply from my enquiry to the government department 'Consumer Direct'. They have forwarded my complaint on to Lancashire County Council Trading Standards. Part of reply below: As any attempt to mislead a consumer in the description of a...

Just had a call from their customer service department. They informed me also that the lens is out of stock and can't say when it will be back in as they are reliant on their suppliers. Offered me a refund or to hang on till the lens is back in stock. As my lens appeared in good condition with...

I did my daughters renewal application recently and followed a link on HotUKDeals (http://www.epassportphoto.com/). You upload your photo, some bars appear on the photo to allow you to scale to the correct size. Select 'no thanks' at the end and you are given the option to download the...
