8V might be a bit high. The batteries are going to be a maximum of 6V. Remember having let the smoke out, how hard it is to get it back in.

You have an expensive item for sale, say a K-5 for £700, you want payment by paypal gift.

Wouldn'...

What's wrong with some people
As a decrepid oldie with a pronounced limp, I can easily be stereotyped as something I am not. Putting a camera to my eye can evoke some interesting reactions. I have had two similar situations. My response has been to hold up my hand and say 'just wait a minute until I switch to video mode and...

What's wrong with some people
were you on his property? two simple issues.... stay off his property, and don't sell or publish images of private property without a release. So it is always best to ask them nicely to sign the release when approached... Owning a building which happens to feature in a photograph does not give a p...

What's wrong with some people
The photographer who took the 1st photograph would probably be the owner of the copyright if anyone owned it, but it would probably be from just one position. I'm basing this on the photograph taken in the 60's of Christine Keeler sitting the wrong way round on a chair with her arms on the back ...

Adding kit details to posts - hoiw?
OMG, is there now going to be an explosion of multicoloured self-publicity albeit in small fonts? If so, please, Good Forum Software People, give us an "Ignore signature" option. If 'ignore this person's sig' is just too hard, as well it might, I'd be happy just to switch them back on temporaril...

The words cheeky and thieving spring to mind. The camera listed is the one he took the picture with, not the one in the picture and he does state it's a picture in the title but no where else. He's playing on peoples greed for a bargain and bringing ebay into a position of ill repute, surely t...

He's playing on peoples greed for a bargain and bringing ebay into a position of ill repute, surely they should give the buyer his cash back and ban the rip off merchant!! From an ethical point of view they should. From a business perspective they won't. The seller may be underhand but he's within t...
