ppi (pixels per inch) relates to the image. dpi (dots per inch) relates to the printer output. These terms regularly get confused...

It seems the NT have relaxed their attitude to amateur photography both inside and outside their properties. It will be interesting to see how individual managers respond to this.

I always cause a rumpus when asked "Do you mind leaving your bag?" and I say that yes, I do mind very much....

Two year guarantee from Pro Dealers seems pretty positive to me. Plus of course EU and especially UK consumer protection for maybe up to 6 years.

There are plenty of honest eBay sellers and buyers. Sometimes some of the things listed can be true as well.

As an example, where's the sense in buying a £10 battery to test a camera offered at £5 that was fine when it was used, but just hasn't been re-tested today?

I agree that some sellers are very deceitful, but most are not, and how they go about their business in general usually gives lots of clues about it.

Please start again. Normally only one go at entering is made, but in this case there's no harm done. This rule is to discourage entrants from replacing photos in the light of later entries, which would hardly be fair play!

They might or might not change their minds in Bahrain, depending on the final price and the reception in the rest of the world.

If it's a hot seller, they will want it.

DHL made a delivery from the Netherlands. The online tracking was useless. One day it was still in the Netherlands, and before it was logged as being in transit it was delivered.

Anybody's guess. Depending on condition and the Buying Mood it could be £30 or £130.....it's been both extremes!

Prime lens means fixed focal length. A 50mm is an example of a prime lens. A Limited lens is a limited (in volume) production line that operates to the highest standards.

Ondeed, the call has already gone out. If there's no response by tomorrow, we'll look at what should be done.

It's a good idea if anyone enters a competition that they do know they'll be available in case they win!
