    OCA The Art of Photography Course Discussion Including Assignments and Submissions

    Nothing at all other than thinking have I wasted my money. Did that at GCSE level and didn't expect to be seeing it on a higher education course. Bit of a motivation killer for me to be honest.

    How to Take Stunning Pictures On TV

    I'm glad I haven't seen any of this by the comments on here! Don't know what the problem is with Suzi Perry she's a nice lass. Met her a couple of times when she was on the WSB circuit and she was very friendly. She learnt a lot about the teams and riders in her time and I think was pretty...

    Shooting in Manual mode is easy and best!

    I tend to use manual all the time as well. My first SLR was manual and when I was taught photography it was with a manual SLR. The first time I saw aperture or shutter priority modes was when I bought a DSLR. Both have their merits but for me my preference is to use manual. Increasing or...

    Wireless triggers

    RF602 set via Ebay proved to be a good choice. 3 triggers and 1 transmitter set was about £50. I tested them on arrival and found one was faulty and had no problem getting it exchanged. Ideal kit for firing speedlites. I have An Elinchrom Universal trigger set for studio use but wasn't going...

    Hi from Tamworth!

    Welcome. I pop over to Tamworth when I can for model shoots at Ariane Studios. If that sort of thing ever interests you I can recommend them. If memory serves you have Image Red over there as well so remarkably well served for studios compared to where I am! ATB Jim

    Advice about Pure Storm

    I haven't had any problems with any of the sites I have registered on, even when I barely had a model image to my credit. I think sometimes it is a case of who is doing the moderating rather than what you are uploading or the type of account you want to create. I have found that some sites...

    My GCSE

    I did the GCSE myself last year at night school; I'm a mature student! I chose Brandt and Karsch as my photographers to research. Both are known for their portraits but Brandt is also known for his London Blitz and nude photography. I chose portraits and architecture as my projects along with...

    Middlesex Studio Recommendations?

    I have recently moved with work to the Feltham area of Middlesex and am looking for any studios in the area that do group shoots, model days and hire at reasonable rates. Can anyone recommend anywhere? Jim

    Dell Monitor

    Anyone tried using this monitor (2209WA) to view blu-ray? I am having an issue with mine as both Nvidia control panel and Cyberlink say it isn't HDCP compliant despite the Dell specs saying that it is.

    So many people selling 17-40

    I have one I am looking to sell on. Had it up on Ebay a couple of times on buy it now and best offer and was annoyed at the downright cheeky offers I was getting. I would rather use it as a doorstop than let someone have it for a pittance. I had just bought a 16-35 so no more need for the...

    ebay help - new rules for a private seller

    Tis all seems very erratic. I don't think I have had any funds withheld awaiting positive feedback. I sold a collectable recently that made over £800 and I had the money available to me as soon as payment was made. Still not had feedback for that one!
