Shim... the OP is about 10 months old now! Perhaps we can kill this thread and if bigpeter has any more questions please could he start a new one.

Thanks, Kris.

If you submitted through this site (by uploading them to the gallery but ticking the enter for magazine box) you'll find them appear in your portfolio but not in the magazine if they have been rejected.

My only thought is a slight crop from the top. Other than that, a nice photograph of a strange subject!

Bigpeter, when in manual or aperture priority mode just set the aperture via the controls on the body, not on the lens. Leave the lens on 'A'. If you have older lenses (including M42 screw mounts) that do not have an A setting then you have to approach the problem differently.

Kris.

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!
My first 35mm film ever was a roll of Kodachrome 64. RIP.

So which came off worse, the Unilock or the Freelander?
It was a close run thing but sadly my tripod. My only other run in with a Freelander resulted in nine days in hospital and seven screws in my knee so they aren't my favourite vehicle!

Leaving my camera bag with the luggage and my family on the Paris Metro while I went and bought the tickets. When I got back... "camera bag? what camera bag?" They were so amazed that I, a non-French speaker, was going to buy tickets they all stood round and watched me while someone made off with my bag. Bye bye my beloved MX, my SMC-M 28mm F2.8, my SMC-M 135mm, my flash...

Compare the cover with the same shot inside the magazine, p. 22. Quite a big difference. I am glad it wasn't just me!
