You're not alone, I don't use grips either. It just makes the camera bigger and heavier and spoils the ergonomics, IMHO anyway.

Yes, I've let benjikan know it's faulty so he can repost.

This is usually caused by putting symbols in the title that the system can't cope with, but we don't know what the cause is for sure until IT can look at it tomorrow.

This of course confirms that slide film has a narrow dynamic range, so if you can expose it properly you won't have a problem with digital.

Slides are a great learning tool and thoroughly recommended!

So which came off worse, the Unilock or the Freelander?

Maybe they have, IT are always looking at the detail of things.

If in doubt as to what's happening, then make a report, but please be as detailed and specific as you can. IT will do what they can to help.

I've just tried it to make sure, and it took me back one page just as before.

I'm not aware of this as a "tweak" - the back button normally takes me back one page.

It's entirely possible that the change will be a disappointment. Certainly looking at the A3 competition entries at ADAPS, on a print there is no obvious advantage to those who use full frame.

The real difference that shows is in technique and skill, which far outweighs any difference in camera. The same is true of the RAW/JPEG debate, as many of our best photographers shoot in JPEG.

I wouldn't try to dissuade anyone from trying, but would just suggest that it's wise to try before you buy. A very good friend of mine is very unahappy with his D300 and it's not clear why he bought it, as previously he wasn't happy with his D200....

On the other hand, his wife is very happy with her D80, so cost is not the factor either.
