    Computer ignoramus looking for advice

    Since my trusty sony vaio died, and is beyond repair, I now need to buy a new laptop (we dont have space for a desktop :( ) I was hoping to limp the laptop along until I had enough money saved for a really high spec laptop (best of everything) but now those plans have been scuppered. Can...

    Laptop spec.

    I think I will need to buy a new laptop to replace my current "poorly" one. I have not taken any RAW images with the D800 as the laptop seemed to struggle with the sample one a friend sent me. What sort of spec should I be looking at for a replacement? Current spec was i5 (original first...

    Laptop woes

    Any computer experts here please... My workhorse Sony Vaio laptop "died" yesterday :( The screen has stopped working (I have plugged it into an external monitor and nothing is visible on that either). I can hear the fan and the hard drive so there is "life" in there. Any ideas as to...

    Traceys 52 in 2015

    More people getting into film photography?

    or is it that more people are buying the film cameras for the old lenses? I've been on ebay trying to buy a film camera for my daughter... 2 or 3 years ago the cost of an Olympus OM10 with lens was approx £10, and they werent selling... or going for the first bid... now I have tried a few at...

    I never realised

    having upgraded to a D800 from a D5100, I never realised just how much difference that 100% viewfinder would make. I now find my photos have cropped feet, bits of what I thought would be the edge of my photos cropped... I really must get used to checking right to the edge of my image BEFORE I...

    Elements upgrade

    I currently use PS Elements, and have the Elements/Premier Elements 11 bundle (as I thought I may "do" video at some point - which I havent) If I want to upgrade to 13, does anyone know if I have to buy the Elements/Premier Elements upgrade, or can I get away with just buying the Elements...

    What are my options?

    Currently own a D800 and a 28-300 zoom. I am looking for a wider angle than I currently get on my current set-up. (When I shot Olympus I owned a 9-18 lens - 18-36fx equivalent, and loved the lens). What makes/models are available for an ultra-wide zoom lens for the fx? and I would like...

    An autumn walk

    Hubby and I went out for a short(ish) walk yesterday. We often walk around this area of Derbyshire... its so scenic, but we found a path we hadnt been down before. Its a spur of a disused canal. At this point it was an aquaduct over the railway line, and the bridge is over the River Derwent...

    52 photos

    I have always been in awe of those that can take, process and publish one photo everyday! A few years ago I tried it and got as far as May before I fell. An option I started earlier this year was a 52 (one photo a week from a pre-determined list of themes) but because I have been running around...
