    Favourite film?

    Interesting to hear so many votes for B&W film. Never really tried any myself but would love to give it a go! IR would also be cool...

    Favourite film?

    What films do you guys really love? For me I've only ever shot 35mm, my favourite by far is Velvia 50. I use it for most things although can be a bit too much for portraits, and E6 processing is really expensive! About to try some Ektar 100 which sounds like it might be similar but in C41...

    Light L16 Camera - What are your thoughts?

    Couldn't seem to find any real specs - what ISO can it handle? Shutter speeds? Actual aperture? They say f/1.2 but I guess they just mean "can produce depth of field similar to using an f1.2 lens". Would love to actually try one out!

    Fuji S5 pro owners

    Still loving my S5, would love to upgrade to something newer but I know I'll miss these colours if I do! Wish Fuji would make an S7 Pro in a D750 body or something :) Btw, anyone ever used a 32GB+ CF card in an S5? I use 2 16GB Sandisk Extremes (one 60MB/s and one 120MB/s) which work OK. Don't...

    Upgrade from Fuji S5?

    Well I agree on the JPGs, straight out of the camera they are pretty amazing from the Fuji whereas you'd usually need to fiddle around with RAWs on Nikons to get anything similar. That alone saves a huge amount of time. Providing I've got the exposure right, I barely ever need to actually go...

    Upgrade from Fuji S5?

    Ah OK, good to hear. Do you find the colours satisfactory coming from a Fuji? To be honest the D800 is of out of my budget for now but I'm hoping the D600 would give similar image quality, do you know anything about the differences between the two?

    Upgrade from Fuji S5?

    Ah, that's what I was worried about. To be honest I don't really use the film simulation modes on the S5, I love shooting Velvia film but I don't like the Velvia mode on the S5 (I find it crushes the blacks too much). Haven't played around with the other modes enough to pass judgement, I've...

    Upgrade from Fuji S5?

    Haha yes it is! Just wish they made an S6... It does mean I'll have to save for longer but I think it may be the only solution here. Anyone moved from S5 to anything else and been happy?

    Upgrade from Fuji S5?

    Hi all, looking to get some advice on cameras. I have a Fuji S5 Pro which I absolutely love but it's getting a bit long in the tooth. The colours are just incredible, along with the dynamic range. Skin tones are perfect straight out of the camera. However, it is slow, not very sharp, and the...

    Cheapest place to get long lengths of CAT5?

    I've seen some good deals on Amazon and also eBay.

    Website Critique ..

    It may just be me but I think the box with your prices in would look better if it was in the middle rather than to the left, and maybe dropped down a line to separate it. Otherwise looks really good.

    How many of you have NEVER tried/used film?

    I use my Dad's old Canon A1 SLR, it is really nice to use and the shutter noise is amazing! I ran a roll of Velvia 50 through it this summer and got some really nice results, better than I could have got with digital. I find that using film makes me take more time with my shots and really think...

    Multimedia Player advice please

    All iPhone apps will only work on the Apple devices. With some more popular apps they may be available on other devices, the most likely being Android devices.

    I also dislike the new one, it seems really cluttered and annoying to use. It also seems slower but that may just be me... I reckon they could have made the image area larger and got rid of some of the clutter.
