All the pictures in Yours Photos forum are cut off
Apologies, i'm a bit late joining this thread, been busy :) I'm another advocate for Firefox, mainly because of the add-ons of which my favourites are: Adblock Plus British English Dictionary Exif Viewer (but it has to be v1.52, from the author's web site to work with Firefox 3.6) Exif (a s...

All the pictures in Yours Photos forum are cut off
My ancient lap-top is so unreliable and slow. I keep losing internet connection for no obvious reason. Your laptop may well be ancient but what is almost certainly causing sluggishness and unreliability is the age of your operating system installation rather than that of the hardware itself. This...

Cheap software, windows,adobe,etc
Fine for Microsoft Products but for Adobe you need PROOF of your student status. I agree and can back that statement up. I do qualify as an educator for Adobe's educational discount. Before the order could be fulfilled, proof of educational employment, a verification letter and a copy of the school'...

panoramic technique
As Gwyn advises plus I would add that I go to manual focus too (keeping it the same for each frame). You can get away without using a tripod too (quite easily in fact provding your stance is consistent as you pan to each frame). When you are preparing your RAW images for stitching on the PC ...

Photoshop V1 20th Birthday:
We had this discussion in a thread a couple of days ago but this is the first time I've seen that timeline graphic - fascinating stuff! :) I'm still using V5 (and I think I still have my boxed set of floppies for V3 knocking around somewhere) but other than the ability to work with RAW files I do...

I need advice on a new printer
I have both HP and Epson printers. The HP is an all-in-one, with reasonable print quality, but the cost of inks is very expensive for very small capacity cartridges. I bought an Epson Stylus Pro 3800 A2 printer. It was on special offer at Focus last year. The ink cartridges hold 80ml each. Th...

Camera Backpack for Mountain Biking
I have a Slingshot 200 and while I love it for the quick access I don't know if it would be very comfortable for mountain biking. I find the strap makes my right shoulder ache after walking for an hour or so. I also don't think it's doing my back any favours.

Camera Backpack for Mountain Biking
I have a lowepro trekker AW - 2 shoulder straps, chest strap and waist strap, so a very stable carry on a bike. Also mesh back, handy as I guess you may get warm! And an integral waterproof cover for when the weather decides not to cooperate.. Paul

Camera Backpack for Mountain Biking
Would never advise carrying a backpack on a bike, with especially something solid like a camera in it. If you carry your kit properly on the bike at least it would minimise damage to your body. Bar bag would help with shock protection. Just imagine landing flat on your back with a K7 lumping you in ...

Camera Backpack for Mountain Biking
Otrlieb do a camera bag for on the handlebars, and also one with optional harness that you carry on your chest. They are 100% waterproof. Kettler also do a handlebar camera bag, but I don't think it is up to the Ortlieb ones. I would rather have the camera against my chest than on my back in case ...

Camera Backpack for Mountain Biking
On topic: A thing to consider is how easy you can the camera from the back. In that respect the Tamron and similar designs are not perfect as you will have to take the bag off your back - it slows things a bit and for my I find I often considers if it is really worth it. I know this is going of...

Another case of Police Overstepping the mark
Have you noticed in the majority of these cases its always a PCSO who instigates the problem, they dont understand the law and they wont back down when their ignorance and our rights are pointed out to them, its high time these people were given better training or we may as well just put vigilantes ...

Another case of Police Overstepping the mark
Although this was a very disturbing video one question was not answered. Just how was the photographer positioning himself and his camera? That seemed to be the reason for the police concern and I didn't hear anyone explain what the photographer was doing. The press pass mentioned by "gartmore"...

Are Pentax likely to follow suit?
I sincerly hope this idea isn't taken uo by Pencaniks:D (new terminology:wink:) not at least for the forseeable future, I cant see EVF's ever been able to match the optical quality of a Pentaprism, imagine trying to compose and focus a detailed macro shot with an eye straining flickering viewfinder.
