iPad or iPad Which One?
To be fair I've had far more trouble with PCs than I had with my Mac, and you could level the "not bad until they break down" criticism at PCs too, just don't forget to include "get a virus" and "just don't want to work". My own experience is that Macs, or I should say PPC iMacs in particular, are d...

iPad or iPad Which One?
I only have a couple of day's experience of using a Mac as I have just acquired a Mini Mac that arrived on Monday. However I do have some experience of using several operating systems right back to CP/M :). However now, I guess, I have a Windows mind-set so was keen to put some virus protection o...

iPad or iPad Which One?
Try hitting Alt 3 for the hash - one of my beasts has a UK keyboard the other is a US Board . If I hit Shift and 3 I get a £ :) Thanks, I did manage to work it out but it took a long search on Google:? The other big problem I have is sharing printers (a Canon ip4300). I did not realise that...

iPad or iPad Which One?
That looks a lot like two Apple LCD screens on either side of the iMac in the middle. They look much too thin to be iMacs. I see 3 iMacs, 2 G5 towers, and 2 LCD screens. No, no independent LCD screens. I think what you may be looking at are two back panels from the iMacs. There's a side panel from a...

iPad or iPad Which One?
It's as if some journo wrote a piece in today's Guardian alerting everyone to the fact that Steve Jobs took a 6 month medical leave of absence to have a secret liver transplant in January 2009. C’mon Tim, that’s a silly analogy for what is a deeply serious matter. In my view it is solely Jobs’s m...

Might this be better? https://thejoojoo.com/sites/ It has some pluses hardware wise and Browser Based OS sounds interesting but might be a bit limiting but we of course don't know that yet. Come ON Stefan! About a dozen or so pages back you were complaining that the iPad wasn't more like a netbook,...

iPad or iPad Which One?
Looks interesting, like the fact that it has a 12" 720p widescreen, camera and supports flash. The iPad could do with all of these, and if it did, I would probably buy one at launch. There are problems though:- Violation of PayPal's terms and conditions Illegal use of imagery from the film ...

Dog House
Well, then you have two options as I see it, get real creative and WOW her with your birthday present OR go back to ebay and get her a camera in hopes that she will find photography as a new found passion. Personally, I think you would get out of the dog house and further with option 1. :roll: Yo...

Amateur Photographer editorial
Yesterday I had an e-mail anouncing 3 new Pentax Compacts - and Damien Demoulder's says Pentax doesn't have a range with two camera bodies! Cameras and camera manufacturers are not confined to SLRs are they? Lets face it, more people own a compact then own a DSLR. What we need is Pentax back in...

What Kinds of Lighting Accessories are Needed to Sculpt or Paint with Light? Part 5

Road accident
Well - We were driving along in a line of traffic on a main road towards Torquay and I notice a cyclist flying through the air and ploughs into a keep-left bollard. All trafic stops and wife gets out to phone for an ambulance. I'm staring at the poor dude and all the people trying to help him and th...

Road accident
That main road into Torquay between Penn Inn and Kingskerswell is a real accident black spot and lousy with permanently queuing traffic. (Use the back road through Decoy) The photographs may well be of value to the police in any investigation into the RTC - especially if the cyclist didn't make it:c...

Road accident
Just does not bode well does it? I have seen some things durring my travels that I raised the camera to yet never pressed the shutter. I cannot speak for you but I and others here find it difficult to see why you posted the images. You did and the deed is done. For some things, there is no going ...

Road accident
Ken - out of interest when required to take shots of this type do you just shut down your feelings and get on with it and develop a thick skin to deal with the comments you no doubt get from those concerned with the incident. Or are you lucky enough to be recognised as just 'doing your job' and left...

Welcome back George. Are we to understand from your location details that you live on the canal?

Welcome back George. Are we to understand from your location details that you live on the canal? If so, be afraid, very afraid. That's actually on the mainland.

For better or for worse
This has been discussed a bit before, but as I contemplate scanning some of my slide collection I have been thinking about this again. In my film days (and I still use film alongside digital) each photograph cost money. At current prices that is about 25p per slide. As a result, I was quite car...
