I am used to scolling down my photostream and being able see the total number of views each image has. I don't seem to be able to do this anymore, I have to select each image.

When viewing the photostream and I move the cursor onto an image a diagonal arrow appears in the bottom right - I thought clicking on this would expand the image (same as clicking on the image itself) but it don't it expands a totally different image.

Don't like it

The Spitfire is a photo-reconnaisance version and as with late marks of Spitfire had a Rolls Royce Griffon engine, not the Merlin most people associate with the Spitfire.

By the way I like the last pic best, would look good on my wall any day.

I vote for Lightroom. When I started trying out different software it was the one I found easiest to learn. Also I like it being non-destructive.

Thanks John and Al for info on print life.

The printer I have att is a 10 year old Canon MP600.

What I would look at when buying a new printer is the cost of the inks. My Canon had chipped ink cartridges which were expensive and made it harder to get 3rd party inks when it first came out. When printing photos a lot of ink is used and your expenditure on inks can soon exceed the cost of the printer. I think some manufacters deliberate sell printers cheaper knowing they can recoup the cost on ink sales.

Regards

I haven't printed anything for about 10 years and I found the print would fade over time (say a couple of years). Has this improved or is it best to get prints done by a shop.

Went out today with my K5 and only the M50 f1.7 lens, this was to make sure I used it. My first proper go with this lens in about 20 years

Surprised how quickly I started using the dof scale - very handy. No really interesting subjects but posted some images on flickr if anyone wants to look.

Found it can be very sharp, but could sometimes be subject to purple and/or blue fringing in some high contrast scenes like fine tree branches against white sky.

Still pleased I hung onto this lens.

When attached to the camera it should only stop down when you take a picture or you use dof preview.
