More on Countryfile winner - unbelievable!!
I have just watched it on hearing the news. I am stunned. This is my local patch one mile from where I live. Plus - I took the bluebell pic from the same spot for my local photographic club monthly theme "Spring". And just to rub salt in the wounds I rejected it for lacking impact and have deleted t...

More on Countryfile winner - unbelievable!!
I thought it was lovely, the way the tree branches curved around that path making a tunnel. But then I noticed the words 'fisheye filter effect' and that kind of killed it for me!

More on Countryfile winner - unbelievable!!
I was a bit underwhelmed with it but thought perhaps it was jealousy in not thinking of spicing mine up with a fisheye filter. I'm pleased for Bill though and also surprised I've not bumped into him up there. I think with any competition of 55000 entries there are probably about a 1000 potential wi...

K3 price
If you still want to price cream then you risk disgruntlement from your existing client base as prices will surely have to drop more quickly than usual. What was the gap between the D7000 and the D7100? Two years? It's nowhere near replacement time yet, so the K-3 will have to become competitive wi...

Uv filter
How many of us use uv filters it seems like you buy an expensive lens and then stick a cheap bit of glass over the top of your lens to protect it, can their be a difference in using a filter in picture quality. I have always used filters but are we fooled into believing we must use them ...

Uv filter
Cheap ... don't think so. I use a protector filter on most of my lenses and they can be around £40 to £50 each. I would rather have salt spray or a scratch on a filter than the front element of a DA* lens.

Uv filter
deppends very much on what I'm shooting and which lens, my 80-320 reacts very badly to filters, some of my other lenses don't mind as much. When I do use them, I only use multi-coated filters to minimise their impact on flare resistance.

Uv filter
No filters, but always a lens hood. The exception would be the PL or graduated filters, although I personally don't use the latter at all.

Uv filter
I found any type of filter on the 55-300mm is a no-go. Almost got rid of my lens until I read on the forum the filter was a cause of poor images, on this lens anyway. :)

Uv filter
No filters, always a lens hood for me too. Just wait till you see the damage a filter does when it breaks.

Only filter I use [ and not often enough I'm told ] is a CPL. Hood - oh yes

'Taking the waters'
Hi Peter The answer is 'there is no right or wrong shutter speed' to use when photographing water. It depends on the effect you wish to achieve and the conditions pertaining at the time. For example, with very rough seas splashing against the rocks a fast shutter can be very effective. For a w...

If you go to eBay you have the option to filter by Completed Items which will show what price things did (or did not) sell for. Or you could ask on the forum. You will get an honest answer.

Recommend me a 49mm ND filter
Hi all, I'm considering an ND filter for long exposures during daytime, so 9 stops or more. It has to be 49mm to fit my DA Ltd lenses. The only one I see that gets good reviews on Amazon is this one, but there are reports that you can't wipe it clean because it can damage the coatings, which is...

UV ghostless filter
Just picked up a 49m UV filter for my 50m smc M 1.4 lens, on opening it the words ghost less appear on the rim. The filter appears to display curvature on the glass, it is in excellent condition does it cause any issues with the lens
