I may have missed several pages Doug - I thought tyronet200's post was a general one about all images on the forum. :oops: As usual there are probably several discussions going on at once :wink: Yes, as usual there are :D Axel might distil what he wants and get it back on track :wink: (or find...

There is a lack of feedback, good or bad. Often we look at photos and then move on. You just need to look at the number of views v the number of replies to see this. I'm as guilty of this as anyone and must do better moving forward OK, I haven't read the entire thread, so forgive me if I'm repeating...

There's more than one way to skin a cat. I prefer the sharpening as fine as possible, but that means turning it up a bit as well. I actually use Focus Magic these days, rather than USM.

Monitor Terminal?
Panic over. All your suggestions made me think further about possible causes, and when an HP systems check failed to complete in eight hours I then looked at the Nvidia Control Panel. "Other applications control color settings" Oh really, how come? Well, howsabout if I let Nvidia control i...

Photo Site Recommendations
I use two general photography forums. These are the grandly named 'World Photography Forum' and 'PictureSocial'. I also occasionally use some specialist forums: MFlenses (Manual focus) - which I find good for infra red & UV photography photomacrography (microscope & macro photography) along ...

'Q' anybody?
I saw one today. In the woods. :shock: There was a guy taking photos of the devastation being wreaked by the loggers at the moment. At first I thought it was an i10 but when he asked if he could photograph the dog we got talking - and yes it was a Q. Tiny thing. He was pleased to meet another Pen...

'Q' anybody?
You walk through the woods where logging is going on and have to keep shouting 'Timber' to get your dog back. Surely there must be some sort of law against that! :lol::lol: They weren't actually logging this morning, so it was OK. Yesterday every path I took was blocked by a logging machine, so ...

Prohibition of photography
This sort of thing gets very irritating :( I've not been there for some time - so can't comment re the signing of the place. I do wish that all this scare-mongering re photography would go away. It's got totally ridiculous when you can't take photos of your own kids . Wonder what folk w...

Prohibition of photography
He shouldn't need to be asked. As a father, how would it make you feel to be asked, as if every adult male accompanying a child is up to no good? They probably quite quickly realised he was the father, hence why they fell back on the 'terrorism' line as theb reason they were harassing him.

I've sold up and got a 5D MK II - forum recommendations?
I bought the Canon EOS 5D mark II as a kit in February 2010, from a retailer in Manchester. After a few days I noticed several small grey spots in the top left corner of the sensor, which the anti-dust mechanism wouldn't shift. Having assumed it was simply a little dust, and having taken the camera ...

Credit to the Guardian, you can comment on any of their stories on the same page as many do (not many papers encourage that). I'm going to go back and have a full read.

Guardian wildlife kit recommendations
@prsjnb, if you are serious about being perturbed or puzzled by this then really you should broaden your horizons. Johan, I am serious in so far as the original topic of conversation was the article posted on the Guardian website entitled: "Cameras and kit: best buys for wildlife photographers: We t...

Nikon and Canon suffer another blow
2011 will probably not be a year that Canon and Nikon look back at with fondness. Yesterday I read about Nikon factories in Thailand being submerged in water and Canon factories are apparently affected as well. Today, I stumbled upon - from a Danish newspaper and not Canon/Nikon related but r...

Inexpensive printer
The A3 budget printer I always had in mind was the Epson Stylus 1400 - but here in German amazon the epson cost 80 Euro more than the Canon. As Canon works with only 3 color inks, I wonder if the colors can be as good as the Epson - however - the amazon ratings are not too bad. Epson is also very ex...

Tripods
As for the weight, I did a shoot with some friends on the last nice hot day we had in October. Walked a fair few miles with it on my back and it wasn't uncomfortable, it does have a very nice stretchy handle which makes for a more comfortable carry. The leg locks are great, making it very flexible....

Help needed for photo shoot this afternoon please
Hi, I have to photograph a visitor at work today, he's giving a speech in the canteen. The problem is that it's a big room, blinds at the back will be drawn, he's at the front right with floor to ceiling glass behind him. I can't use flash, I have 70-200 f2.8, 17-50 2.8 and 30mm 1.4 lens and a K-7 ...

Ebay Reserve Price Auctions - Beware
No it's better for the sale not to go through. It happened to me recently, the seller had put on an unrealistic reserve I was the highest bidder and I sent the seller a message about 15 mins. before the end saying that I was already bidding more than the item was worth and I didn't think they wou...
