What about Foliopic? A few members on here use this (Puma, Pianoman, myself) and it is easy to use. It also looks very clean and professional and there are a lot of pre-made templates you can use to give your site the look and feel that you are aiming for. You can try it for free.

I can't answer the question but I have to say that I've had some fantastic results with the kit lens for landscape photography and will continue to use it for this even though I also have a DA 16-45mm which is also fantastic.

All very good, but No. 4 for me is the pick.

Hi all
Epson printers have a print counter which stops it working when a set amount of prints have been done.
Is it only Epson that does this, or is it all printers from all makers.

You can reset the counters so this is not a problem on Epson if you know how to overcome it. Do a search on google.

I know this is an old thread, but I recently bought a 52mm 7dayshop variable ND filter and used it stacked on a polariser for some landscapes the other day. It works really well; no colour cast (unlike some cheap ND filters) and no noticeable degradation in image quality, as long as it is not used at its maximum setting, in which case blotching occurs.

The only other downside is that it has a slight lip and the standard petal lens hood will not slide over it. No big issue, just fit the filter after fitting the lens hood.

These variable ND filters look good quality to me.

Only try dismantling it if you are not afraid of losing it. I have succesfully cleaned some old Takumars but ruined a Takumar 200mm F4 as I could not re-assemble it. Best bet is send it back for a refund, or argue with the seller and get a load of money knocked off, then try cleaning it. If it cleans you've got a cheap lens, if it doesn't you've lost only a little money.
