Thanks everyone for your advice. My main reason for asking was I normally only want to print a few images at a time. To make it feel cost effective I need to wait and batch up 10 - 20 print to justify the £8:50 delivery charge. There is also the beauty of being able to get an instant result. I...

Hi I am starting to produce work that I would like to print A3 size. At preset I have an all in 1 print that produces average photo prints unto A4 (but the printer was not brought as a photo printer). Am I better off sending my images off to a professional lab like Pro Am where I can get my A3...

I am trying to keep my ISO as low as possible (low 100's) by extending the exposure time. I'm guessing the best way to see the difference is to take two shots and compare them afterwards. Thanks again to everyone for you advice.

Ok, thank you for that. Do you know what the affect in IQ is when you turn this off?

I know this is going to sound like a daft question. But can anyone tell me why the camera takes as long to process the image after the shutter closes as it did to take the original shot? I am experimenting with some low light photography with an exposure of about 10 minutes, but this is taking...

Hope you get some great shots Dean.

Thank you everyone for you all your advice. I have settled for a cheap and cheerful generic wired remote. This should get me started, can wait for it to arrive to start to play. Will post some images when I have had a chance to play.

Thank you both, I will look into both options

I have started doing some late night photography. I have reached the 30 second limit for setting the camera shutter speed and I know I now have to move to bulb mode. Can anybody recommend a reasonable priced remote trigger with timer for a Canon 7d. I see Canon sell a Timer Remote Controller...

Thank you all for your comments and advice. It has given me a lot to think about.

Hi All I am looking for some advice. I am have recently brought a macro lens for my Canon camera and I have already found that I need to add more light to my photography. I noticed that the Canon macro flashes are very expensive and would it would take a lot of convincing before I would...

I have a 7d and the EF-S 17-55mm f/2.8 IS This is a great lens producing excellent results. PLEASE NOTE: The EF-S lenses will not work on a full frame camera if you upgrade the camera body at a later date.

Thank you everyone for your advice and great photos. I had considered the Sigma 150-500 but wasn't sure about the f5-f6.3 would be too slow? Can I ask another question, has anyone used a Sigma 300 f2.8 with a 1.4 multiplier? is that worth considering?

have you tried this with a x2 mk iii extender? if so what are the results like at the 400 end?

:thinking:Hi I am looking for some suggestion / advice as to what might be a good lens to buy for bird photography. I have recently purchased a Canon 7d body. One suggestion I have been given is to buy a Canon 70-200 f2.8 and fit a 2x multiplier to it. Can anyone tell me if this is a wise...
