Don't think the drive would be cause, as any drive should be more than quick enough for USB2. Might be a setting on/in the case.

So were these off the back of a lorry? Can't you get a replacement? Sounds like they're new (to you).

I'm assuming this has recently occured and the drives are out of warranty.

Try a different cable? Make sure it's a USB2 one. :

Hang on, you've got 4 cameras and you want a pic from someone else? Surely this is the time for a bit of charm? It would be easy enough to give a modern shot a vintage feel, and the model would be guaranteed anonimity what with the black boxes...

Or have you already tried that route?

So did you use a flash without a diffuser or no flash at all :
There is that reflection on its head is why i ask.
Looks like no flash at all, long shutter speed would also indicate that. The reflection is the sky (first one you can see a cloud), and on the second one you can see Hefty's head.

That diffuser certainly seems to have taken the harshness off - lovely shot, looks as though the full size would show plenty of detail.

The field of view would be different, so you can use it to include more of the background, and help put the subject in contaxt.

This was with a 24mm lens on extension tubes, but hopefully it will give you the idea...

You would have to be a lot nearer your subject with the 35mm compared to a 100mm, so for instance, I couldn't have used one to get a shot of the dung fly I was photographing earlier today, when using my 105mm.

Daniel Bridge – when I set the theme, this is what I was hoping to see some of!
Scrolling down, saw that, and thought "Hey, I've got a place at least!" You're such a tease Will!

Well judged, and congratulations to Tony - a beautiful shot. In fact, lots of cracking shots this week, well done all.
