Hi Kris, We emailed the owners of the remaining sites with advanced notice of the closure of Foliopic, with the opportunity to download their files and data, which many did. I’ll drop you an email tomorrow, so I can sort getting the data back to you. Cheers, Rick

It had to happen I suppose - Variable Pricing on Used equipment !!!
"it's becoming a bit addictive watching what they do day by day (Note to self - Get a Life!)" Or get an app. Something like Fetchie (www.fetchie.app) will automatically track prices of things you're interested in and alert you to when the price has dropped. And a useful side effect is that you wi...

I bought a pentax da*60-250 auto focus lens in March. I was very pleased with it, good price etc. After using it 3/4 times and being very happy with the results. The next time I went to use it the auto focus would not work. On inspection at home I noticed that one of the rear sdm contacts was mi...

Thanks for your work, Rick, and speed of response(s). Appreciated. Thanks Urbanmeister, the existing coding of the site wouldn't have been hostable for much longer, so it's been a necessity to bring it back up to speed with modern expectations for hosting, been a massive task but getting there :smi...

Ebay (and others) descriptions composed by AI
How many times have I seen a lens description proclaiming mint condition only to read further on a touch of fungus or slightly stiff focus or slow aperture etc, etc. Or in some cases claims of fungus free when photo's of the lens clearly show signs of fungal infection. And then there is the flagrant...

Hilarious. It seems to me that there are some people who might benefit from a bit of artificial intelligence. Spot on. I'm not worried that artificial intelligence might take over the world, what scares me is that natural human stupidity has had a long head start... Anyway, back to eBay (and oth...

Anyone used a Sigma FP or FP-L ?
While I haven't used any Sigma cameras, the L-mount is my main system these days so I have some familiarity with it. For something that's FF in as small a package possible there is also the new Lumix S9. Both cameras have some serious sacrifices to make them that small - no viewfinder, no mechanic...

Some Deep Sky Objects!
Over the past few months, on the odd clear night, I managed to grab some time deep sky imaging. It did also include an attempted session where I had a massive tantrum in my back garden, stomping about whinging about the bloody weather in this country!!! I set up all my kit, started to do some calibr...

Rays of sunshine
If it ones that come from behind or through clouds, i find using full or graduated ND filters is best. If it's the ones between trees or some form of landmark, then a day with high humidity is a good start, as you have found out. You can also use a bit of post processing, to make them stand out m...

Ultra Wide Angle Sigma Dirty Word Camera Test
Contrasty photographs but its a contrasty day, colours look good but distortion is at play. Ultra wide lens on FF, I went with the Irix 15mm Pentax fit, Irix do Canon fit also. Manual focus only but with a focus ring lock which is very handy for infinity focus (90% of the time in my case) when...

Ultra Wide Angle Sigma Dirty Word Camera Test
At that price for an ultra-wide it seems like a good deal even if AF is dodgy, as long as you can focus it manually with good results. You won't find many other options at 12mm. I have a 6D, so a bit newer than a 5D II, but it has AF fine-tuning so I would imagine the 5D II would too. Maybe it'...

Silly me
Formatted cards without having downloaded all of the photos. Sometimes I download images all at once and sort out on the computer but the one time I did them by date order, downloaded all my owl photos put the cards back straight into the D850 and formatted the cards. I have used 2 recovery progra...

Spad's Astro Part Deux
This is NGC7000, also known as the Norht American Nebula. I shot this after I had shot the Comet (images to come). It was shot in my back garden. This was shot with the same kit as what I shot the Orion Nebula with, Stacked & stretched in Siril, then PP'd in PS and Topaz AI DeNoise. Ther...
