Hi all, I'd love some gleam some knowledge from the group... I'm considering buying a printer (iP8750 A3+ Canon). Having not owned a photo printer for a very long time and being relatively poor I'm finding the question of ink & paper quality baffling and off-putting. Prices range massively...

Hi all, I'm looking for help to improve my low light manual focus shots. I'm talking focus here. It is so hard to get good focus in low light, I almost always fail. I have so many beautiful shots ruined by being out of focus. I'm not talking about tripod staged shooting, but spontaneous in...

Went out last night to attempt to shoot the milky way. It was a lovely night, on the south cost England. Unfortunately I hadn't been out 20 minutes and it rapidly started to cloud over. Still pretty happy with these, considering the bottle of wine i'd had and the time constraints! I even...

Taken a photo recently of one subject only to notice you accidentally took a picture of something else/better by accident? Post them here. ********************************** Accidental sun spot images: Saw the sun for the 1st time in a month and went to take some photos in the evening sun...

Hello, I'm a bit confused and was looking for a little help/clarification. I'm unsure how to post an decent preview image size and be within the rules of the monthly assignments. Its complying with this rule that i have fallen foul of in the past: "Photos must be posted to the thread in order...

Hi peeps, I could do with your advice. I want to get some filters, well initially I want a 10 stop ND filter. But I know I'll be after others soon enough. I have a D600 with 4 lens with 3 different size filter threads: 52mm, 58mm & 62mm. The only filter I presently have is a 62mm circular...

I thought i would try my hand at some HDR. Wow, its a lot more difficult than i imagined. We just had a beautiful deep red sky sunset and thought is would make a good subject for HDR. But my results were awful. I suspect the lighting and subject was 1/2 the problem. The other half being the...

Hey Nikonites.. I could do with some advice. Thinking about a little Christmas present for myself... a Nikon AF NIKKOR 50mm f/1.4D lens. But I'm not entirely sure, money is tight (but my folks are asking me what i want for Christmas and was considering a contribution towards a new lens).. and...

Hi Nikonites! While I cycled back from the shops, something on the lane caught my eye... it was a dying, I assume, dragon fly. It's beautiful, and I would love to really use it to get the most out of my D600 with its 60MM Nikkor 2.8D Macro lens and practice my macro photography. I don't have...

Anyone know how to copy the EXIF data from LightRoom5? I know how to read the EXIF data, but does anyone know if it is possible copy / extract it so it can be easily pasted elsewhere? I can do this with the metadata but oddly it does not contain the EXIF data. ​Thanks for any help.

Dawn Mist in West Sussex, UK EXIF: D600 f 10, 1/500, 86mm, iso 100. This was a rushed shot. I was taking some dawn mist landscape shots, I had finished and got back in my car as was driving off when i saw a silhouette of a lady & her dog running across the field. I screeched to a halt...

Hi, not sure where to put this thread.. I can't find how to control notifications from this site. I'm getting thoroughly pissed off with the amount of spam being generated to my email from here. Every thread i post in gets automatically added as a subscribed thread and then upon every new...

I need to do a sensor clean on my D600 and am shocked at the price these products seem to be sold at. £33 for 10 swabs, £18 for 7.5ml fluid.. etc etc. These prices seem crazy to me, and clearly taking advantage to consumers. Can someone give me advise of a good supplier/products. If i have...

Just went for a walk and amazingly managed to sneak up on a deer... they normally see me 1st and bolt. My lucky day! For some reason this young roe deer just couldn't work out what this strange thing was crawling behind the bushes and just stared at me. :)

Water doing Google's job. Looks like Roman alphabet to Arabic alphabet translation :)

From my travels in Spain last month i camped in an old Abbey, with the permission of the monks of course! Here are some pictures of the amazing Baroque abbey. Here is a taster of: the rest in the link below. The carvings on the stone work was incredible, the time it must have taken by hand...

Well.... myself and my wife have decide upon a life goal. To travel the world for an extend period. Something like 2 years, but who knowns how long once we get going! The plan is to do this with 2 kids in a converted truck/bus or similar. Ideally we'd love to circumnavigate the world but at...

Hi folks, I did something stupid yesterday and broke my budget tripod. It is a Manfrotto 7321 YB I tried to move the head a couple of mm via the handle when it was tighter than i expected and clean snapped the tightening handle off. Bloody stupid...but hey ho.. It was a budget tripod but...
