My new website

OK. I like the typeface, and the black background and the general idea of the site. I even like the wordiness, even if some is a tad psuedy :wink:. But it is Flash which as Danny points out many people can't, or choose not to see. The pictures take way too long to load and come into focus, and...

Negative or positive, not offend. Go back and read what you wrote again after a coffee in the morning then In the morning, I'll be too busy to bother waiting for the images to load. I don't like what you call poetry, it strikes me as pretentious. I do like many of the images, but the time it t...

My new website

Yes I do agree that the page needs work, first time around at this site thing (long time photography) I guess. I will consider getting rid of the home page tomorrow. The website is free so the uploading and flash issue is a problem. Unfortunately I don't know other options for building a website. An...

My new website

Dunno about the speed, seems OK down here in Cornwall! You only load a HQ image once clicked. Having a progress circle is more informative than waiting for an image to load after clicking it. You are not staring at a placeholder, you can see the rough image transform into a lovely sharp full scree...

Have just had a look on my phone. First thing to bare in mind is the majority of views to your site will come from social networking sites... If you do some promotion it will most likely be through social network sites. 40% of the mobile phone market are smart phones 80% of these smartphone users...

Best Thermals in your opinion

Paramo is good but a jacket and trousers are likely to set you back £200-300. Most synthetic thermals will work fine, the cheap ones may not look so good, but they will work just as well and who's going to be looking? They work by maintaining a thin layer of warm air close to the body but allow m...

Left my bag in a cab

Hi Steven, The problem is being a London black cab there isn't really any way to find out if it went back to a cab office or what- my understanding is they can be run by pretty much anyone that has the license. Johnx, that's a good spot, although doesn't seem to be one local to me (and can't see...

Left my bag in a cab

I think I'm right in saying that (if a driver is honest) property lost in a black cab should be handed into a police station who should forward it to Transport For London lost property. Worth contacting them but I would guess it takes a few days to end up there. Hope you gear makes it's way back...

Left my bag in a cab

Thanks for kind words and tips everyone. All of my research seems to suggest that it should get back to the TFL lost property office via the police- and the driver is entitled to a reward as part of that system, so hopefully it'll go that way and I'll get word sooner or later. I've also logg...

JPSS offer

This might seem a lot of hassle No, not at all. It sounds perfectly sensible. I did speak to someone in the Service dept, describing in detail the problem (excessive back focus). My mistake was in assuming there was no alternative to sending my PU+ number in with the lens, so that they knew I...

JPSS offer

Chris, did you take this up with them and ask for an explanation? I'm going to wait and see a) if the lens is now ok (it's on its way back to me) and b) what it actually says on all the documentation. It's possible I've got the wrong end of the stick, in which case I'll post a humble retraction! ...

Exif Data - Lens Undefined

Well, Frankie, Some people want to strip the EXIF data off, to make the file smaller. You can find this quite often as a"Save for the Internet" option. Some of us do not always use Pentax AF lenses all the time. Stick a manual lens on, select the right focal length and focus manually - there ...

I wonder did they remove the camera back or just stick the nuts on in order to entice the squirrel:D

Pentax K5 made in China ?

There is a camera shopping mall (3 buildings x 6 floors) at Luban Rd / Xie Tu Rd, Shanghai (20 mins from downtown). I buy 90% of all my cameras/lenses from there (the Pentax shop at the back of the ground floor in the first building, not the one next to the escalator (but that seems to be fine too)....

Hi, I was just after a bit of advice, I am trying to sell my fuji s100fs on ebay (since buying the kr) and after having been messed about a couple of times by people, I sold it again yesterday for quite a low price and took a low offer. I messaged the guy late last night asking if he was definately ...

Ebay advice

Buyer has now come back to me and said that he has tried to pay through paypal this morning but it wont allow him to, as he has to verify his bank account first which takes several days, and can I give him any other payment options. Dont know if this is right or not, and I dont know why he couldn't ...
