Ah, right, well, he should have relaxed a bit by now lol

Just to show I'm still using it and it's still working...... Seal pup martins haven by Darren Lewis, on Flickr

A few comments confusing me, you don't need the subject to be looking at the camera to be a portrait, and it's an environmental portrait, so it's meant to show the environment around him. I agree with slightly cropping, and I prefer the B&W the lighting suits it, but for me it doesn't work...

Muscle memory takes a while to sink in so give it a while,but separating focus from the shutter gives you lots more flexibility. And yes you can manually pick a focus point on a modern mirror less camera using the directional controls or the touch screen, but BBF focus and recompose is virtually...

Ah yes I remember reading that now. Yes, an investment in renewables, and to be fair, it is increasing rapidly and with labour removing the planning blocks about to accelerate again. But then other countries are achieving similar without huge rises in bills due to government price caps....

R6ii is a great camera, and essentially the same body as the R5 apart from the top plate and sensor so if you don't like the R6 you won't like the R5. Personally, I think the ergonomics and ease of use are fantastic, whereas a Sony feels like a toy to me ( but fantastic sensors and great lens...

Had tons of bags over 30 years, Lowepro to Domke, all irritated me with poor design choices, just bought a Mindshift, over the moon with it, no issues at all.

Attitude inspires me, the people who get out there and do things, the ones who don't care about money fame or status, they just love what they do and have so much enthusiasm for their work. These are the ones that are often derided as 'lucky', no, getting up at dawn for weeks on end to get the...

Full frame and 50mm, sucker for the classics...

If you're selling on e bay take lots of photo's, from every angle, or a video showing you handling it. I sold a faulty lens, not badly broken a stuck aperture blade so fixable and 99% worked, buyer bought it without reading the description, admitted he didn't read the description and wanted his...
