It's exactly the same camera so it's a perfect alternative to the k10d - of course there are newer models out now which you might prefer

The K10D is o.k, the lens is quite slow though

simon

Bought mine from Cameraworld, £229....

Thanks all for the suggestions...

To be honest though I don't think Jalbum or Photium look any more "professional" than the Clikpic site I'm currently using - I guess its the problem with all the "pre-made" hosting options. I may well have to look at making my own site

simon

I'm currently considering my hosting options/web site design. I currently use Clikpic which is pretty good but very limited on website design/options & not quite a professional looking as I would like...

I came across the 123-reg "Instant site" which is a similar idea, saves me having to fully construct a site, has/does anyone use it or have any experience ?

Alternatively I'd welcome other suggestions

thanks

simon

Chris thanks for the comments/feedback...

I agree the shot is a bit busy, this was probably more one of those "memory capture" shots & consequently I tried to squeeze too much in.. here's another similar shot (with more people)

simon

A shot taken last weekend whilst on the Llyn Peninsula, North Wales...

All C&C appreciated







simon

A good account of your trip !!

I'd echo previous comments that the lighting was a little unkind, but we don't always have any choice when on holiday. I think you would do them more justice by splitting the shots into separate threads.

Apparently the Sigma EF-530 works well - I have no personal experience of it though, just what I've read

simon

Co-incidentally I've just read a thread on another well known site all about this flash... these were the guys comments (added a link for copyright/etiquette purpose)

"The PTTL works well, the design of the body is good, the LCD is excellent, it charges fast but the thing is pretty much unusable for even coverage regardless of focal length.. Fire across a room even in daylight and the light falloff is terrible, the Popup is 100% better even at 70mm .. Flipping the diffuser helps (it halves the output though) but the coverage is STILL better with the popup.. even the cheapo Cheesy build Sigmas don't suffer this ..

Think he took it back to Jessops !!
