Buying and Selling in Classifieds - a word of warning
All banks stink, bunch of crooks the lot of 'em. :evil: We should go back to carrying our gold pieces in our pants. :P In fact I have a rather nice kangaroo scrotum money bag which I may start using.

Buying and Selling in Classifieds - a word of warning
I'm certainly considering changing banks. I used to be (until recently) with Alliance & Leicester. Instant transfers. All was good. But then they had to go and merge with Santander. I can't deposit cheques at my local post office anymore. This week, all my transfers took 3 days (which I did'nt...

This is why I prefer cash in person ----------------------------------------------------- That gets my vote. Don. Chris R. also a good idea for Pro Photography in general. We live in an age where a customer can eat up your time, use your talent, put wear and tear on your equipment, copy the pro...

Buying and Selling in Classifieds - a word of warning
Does that not put potential clients off? When I hear 'cash only' It makes me doubt the seriousness and legitimacy of the business I am dealing with, and I don't like carrying cash either. On the contrary I would admire the business for wanting to trade in safe currency only. A cheque ( or even a pa...

pentax k-r
We're all biaised about Pentax on here but see what I have posted on my portfolio on here as to what you can achieve. A KR since my May holiday in Greece replacing a KX before that. I love it! I have the DA version of the 55-300 which has a metal bayonet and a quick view focus ring but otherw...

B GRIP SYSTEM
Hiya, I just bought B-grip a few weeks ago before shooting a 2 day festival, and I love it. The system available now is the updated Evo edition. I've got MS and a tremor so my co ordination is a bit rubbish, my fingers are a bit numb and my dexterity is poor - handling camera equipment can be pre...

B GRIP SYSTEM
Thanks Davey. It is one thing watching the manufacturers video and another to get a hands on review. I, too, have too struggle with restrictions, mainly a walking disability and my hands shake like jelly. I need to use a stick. That is my interest in the B Grip as it appears, and you confirm...

B GRIP SYSTEM
Hey Thoramay, thanks for your feedback. Its interesting how we were both drawn to the same product. It does sound like our needs are similar. When I shot the 2 day fest I was lucky enough to get a backstage pass for my van so I was parked about 1 minute (even at my pace) from the shooting pit ...

16gb memory card
I would take 2 or 3 cards rather than one big one... spread the risk if something goes wrong with it (and you'd also always have a spare). Say if you took two 8MB cards. When one is full, you can stick the other one in without all the usual going back and deleting shots, which isn't what you want...

Getting my own business website, any tips.
Just a few points to think about: - It is easier for the human eye to read dark print on a light background, than the reverse. - Some typefaces are easier to read than others - we ran a survey a few years back and Tahoma came out on top. - Keep away from red/green and blue/yellow combinations if ...

I Stand corrected
Have you ever thought camera flash was not very interesting? click on the link and take a look at a very creative video. http://strobist.blogspot.com/2011/07/i-stand-corrected.html I thought it was very clever! Gareth I saw that as well. didn't watch the whole thing... They could have do...

The end of ful F1, on BBC.
That adds F1 to the list of sport that a'hole has nicked, after football, cricket and boxing. I hate murdoch and that goes way back before the NOTW scandal. Sky Sports was available to all Sky viewers before they got the footie and once that happened they scrambled all of it not just the footie......

The end of ful F1, on BBC.
Per this it was the BBC that decided to gift it to Sky primarily to get out of next year's contract. 'Course BE and FOTA didn't mind the extra ~9m quid a year! But _if_ the BBC wanted to save money they could have done the same as Speed (previously Speedvision) did in USA a while back: take th...

The end of ful F1, on BBC.
Try BBC World Service (its on loads of places from Shortwave through Internet to DAB). Thats funded by the Foreign Office (not my licence:?) Not for long, unfortunately. Soon license payers will be moaning about their license fees going on stuff for people overseas, and it'll get cut back so we can ...

grrrrrr eBay numpties
I've had problems with the last three lenses I've bought off ebay. The last one was an M42 described as "Excellent" and it was so stiff that it kept unscrewing off the camera. I returned it and the seller said he still couldn't see anything wrong with it but was going to refund. I wrote back say...
