365 photo projects
It's a great idea, I attempted one last year, it was a different image of this wee figure I found, he was in different situations every day, which did limit me in a way. I only made it to the beginning of July. :oops: I was like bettyswollocks above with he old 5 to midnight panic a few times....

365 photo projects
Never done it but there was a talk at my club a while back... Some of his advice was: Join a 356 flickr group that you can gain inspiration from and get support... Support and encourage 3 other photographers who are also 365ing with the same start date as you... Good luck...

Studio experience, East Mids
You could try searching for studios in your area , then checking out their websites for info or try phoning them , a lot of studios do workshops at small cost . I attend a studio in my area at present , they do two evenings a month (creative circle ) shooting five models over 3hrs for fifteen qu...

converting raw files
All this confusion has happened since using Adobe Photoshop 6. I was happy with the Photoshop 5. Beginning to wish I had not upgraded. in 5 version, you are right in that once you select JPeg, all subsequent saved go to JPeg. Unless I am seeing it wrong, the default changes back to IFF in 6. ...

Lens fungus?
Thank you guys, I thought it was fungus but since I have never come across it before I wasn't completely sure. In my book, if John says its fungus, then thats what it is :) and no it wasn't mentioned at all, it was described in excellent 'as new' condition :x but at least now I know I am right to t...

Lens fungus?
Open an ebay dispute for "item not as described" Its easy and it works. I recently had an item that wasn't as described, the seller just ignored my emails, I opened a dispute and within a week I had my money back and I got to keep the item! Its better to be safe than sorry Mate

Jessops in trouble?
As they are not accepting gift vouchers don't forget if you bought with debit or credit card you may be able to claim the cost back under chargeback!

Jessops in trouble?
Ask whoever bought it how they bought it. If it was on a credit card they might be able to get their money back... ...They need to go through the accounts to see what the balance sheet looks like and who has to be paid first. Give them a few days before assuming that vouchers are lost. Good adv...

Jessops in trouble?
A few years back, Sue worked for Jessops in the Trafford centre and it was a highly functional, positive team full of enthusiastic photographers. The shop was overflowing with accessories and cameras alike. There was strong team spirit. After a couple of years and being promoted to assistant mana...

Jessops in trouble?
Norwich was still open , but the staff had no idea what was happening. When I went back a couple of hours later they were starting to empty some of the cupboards so the end looks nigh. Amazed at the number of people still buying at full price, though.

Jessops in trouble?
Just back from shopping trip to Burton. Jessops appear to be open as usual with just a small poster at the back advertising a sale (quite normal at this time of year, all the other shops in the area doing the same) regards Bernard My phone doesn't have a camera, it doesn't even do texts prope...

Jessops in trouble?
Normally, a company runs out of cash, and the bank pulls the plug. This almost happened to Jessops a year or two back, but the chaps in charge at the time talked the bank into buying most of the shares. So this time, the bank was actually the biggest shareholder, and prior to the closure had b...

Jessops in trouble?
Shame LCE in Manchester is rubbish! Not a nice place to visit. They used to have a reasonable amount of Pentax gear, but not anymore. In fact, the inside of the shop is not welcoming anyway. As for Jessops, I do feel for most of the staff, as recently they were beginning to staff the shop in Manc...

The website is back too. http://www.jessops.com And they are selling Pentax. (So it looks like there might just be some shops returning after all. Well, nobody seemed to see that coming did they?) :?:wink:

Advice on insurance
Insurance can be very, very tricky, so probably best to talk in detail with your insurers. If they won't take on the risk in a proper manner, perhaps another company will. There are specialist photographic insurers, there's one in the PU Shop area at the top of the page I think, but have a look i...

Study Photography at the OCA?
Turns out that you guys have made this a very interesting and informative topic, thanks for the contributions, they have made me stop to think – what are you really getting at, what, underneath the light-hearted banter, is the real point you are making Mr Pants. Something makes me think you are tel...

Study Photography at the OCA?
I like your idea about working with a point and shoot, or just setting the K-5 to 'green' and clicking away. It will certainly be more relaxing and often more fun, so I'll do that for a while. Maybe for much longer than a while. Photographic technique, of course, depends on the subject matter. ...
