I wouldn't know where to start on how to apply a hard grad ND to a sky in software. Does it take the same length of time and can some one share the how pleaae? There are lots of ways to do this in photoshop, using a gradient fill layer or just a new layer and the gradient tool - you can find loads ...

SRS Great Service
I have not been on here for too long, but recently I was concerned that my K5 may have a sensor stain, so I returned it to SRS and they checked it out for me and it was ok just a dirty sensor. Then they cleaned it for me and sent it back FOC - what great customer service and a brilliant business....

SRS Great Service
My new Sigma 50-500mm OS developed a fault a couple of weeks ago (wouldn't focus on jack) ... Chris kindly had it picked up and then sent it to Sigma for warranty work. Was returned yesterday working better than new. Wondering if Sigma has a faulty batch because the first one I had was returned f...

Soft Proofing
I've started using soft proofing - it seems to make my pics very dull and I can't adjust things enough afterwards to get that 'punch' back. I know prints are reflective and I won't be able to match my monitor but I'm disappointed with what I'm seeing. Maybe I should just switch soft proofing off - I...

MX1 advert
Not everybody wants an optical viewfinder of the rangefinder-style type. On a DSLR that's something else, but I wouldn't want to go back to 1970s style direct vision finders.

MX1 advert
The camera designer always has a problem in that they can't satisfy everyone in one model. Hence lots of different options on the market. There are those who desperately want an optical finder on these camera types and those like myself who don't. Nobody is right or wrong. I don't because a de...

MX1 advert
It's not so much accessories but the operating logic and colour quality that are compatible. Pentax cameras have the colour that I like. The menus of all the cameras, and the other controls, work in the same way. I've tried many, but still go back to Pentax in the end.

MX1 advert
I've tried many, but still go back to Pentax in the end. Can't argue with that. I once bought an EOS 5 film body, a very very capable camera but not one I got on with at all. I bought my Z-1 because its controls just made sense, ditto my K-5 20yrs later because it felt exactly the same (but bette...

Chinese accessories
How many people here have purchased any of the Chinese accessory products, that are flooding the market. What have you purchased ? Were they fit for purpose ? Was the cost saving, wotrh the wait in delivery time ? Definitely an "it all depends" situation !:wink: I am very wary of anything electri...

If you could have been the photographer...
If you could have been the photographer that captured that iconic image, that moment it time, which picture would it have been and why? I thought long and hard about this as there are so many, for example Marilyn Monroe and The Seven Year Itch shot, Audrey Hepburn Breakfast at Tiffany's, the many...

First Magazine Centre Spread - It 'Upset' Some Togs
Hi all, My mate picked up a Stock Car magazine for me last week at the first meeting of the new season ( I couldn't attend ). It turned out I had one of my photos from last season printed as the 'coveted' centre spread. Apparently a couple of the 'Pro' BriSCA F1 photographers wanted to know...

Weston Master V Light Meter
There was a time when just about everyone had one. I still have one that I used to use as a back up to various Lunasix, Minolta or Gossen meters. As John says not very sensitive. A certain retro charm now from a piece of pretty poor British design and engineering; hold the meter vertically and take ...

Pentax returns to Jessops
Jessops "were" the worst camera shop in UK, but before that, they were probably the best. Up until their massive expansion in the early 2000's, they were rather good. They even bought City Camera from the father of a friend, and they were great. However by the mid to late 2000's it all went pear s...
