I'm going to be in Belfast for the Giro in a couple of weekends time, does anybody know of any interesting locations to get some shots? Such as good backdrops etc. I don't know the area particularly well Cheers

Interesting bike! I prefer the first without flash but do like a couple with flash on your flickr page

I think it is probably my only phobia! Last time I went it took 4 injections for her to get the right area numbed... spent the next 24 hours chewing the inside of my mouth off

Will have a trawl :bonk:

Canon 430ex ii. First flash so I'm sure several hours of playtime will ensue!

Anyone go for the Samsung 840 series? Is the Pro series significantly better than the Evo?

Cheers guys, sounds like it will be my next upgrade. I quite like the idea of SSD (~250gb) for OS and a larger HDD replacing optical drive so will have a look into that

I've had a macbook pro for a few years now (2009) and was looking for a bit of a performance boost. Having just upgraded the RAM (8gb), is the move to SSDs worth the investment? I have read reviews that have praised them, but also ones that have viewed them as a poor return on their (reasonably...

I bought the same a couple of weeks ago, you won't be disappointed! Image quality is fantastic compared to the 55-250 IS which I had previously. Don't particularly miss the IS for what I use it for

Sounds like the 2.8 is the one to go for for my needs! Just need to save up a bit more now, thanks for the advice all! Tom

Hi guys, I'm looking to pick up a Canon 70-200 L lens, mainly for outside sports (varying light). I unfortunatly cant stretch to the 2.8 IS II, and dont think the IS on the f4 will be that beneficial over the non-is for stopping the action dead over the non-IS, therefore cant decide whether...

Hi Guys, Just wanted to say hi. Relativly new to photography wanting to hopefully pick up some tips and advice :) See you around Tom
