Digital photography

just pulled the trigger on a FinePix F70EXR 129 quid which I think is a pretty decent price could have easily spent another couple of hundred on a compact
the reviews give it high ratings
it'll do as a pocketable point and shoot with some funky bits and pieces if you care to play with the more manual settings
looking forward to seeing the images

Just putting a heads up here before making a for sale thread.

Recently acquired a mk.ii so have a 5D mk.i for sale. Body, Canon grip, two Canon batteries, charger, manual and original box (somewhere in the loft) + a 2GB cf card.

Thinking £480 with forum donation included.

ANyone got a G9/G10 they'd like to part with?

Finally shot with my D7000 for the first time in what feels like months

Was nice to take advantage of that big thing in the sky showing its face

Fuck Aperture, realised Sigma isn't supported by Apple either.

Lightroom it is, and finally full control of my Sony RX100 photos.

some shit I took with Dom last night

bit blurry aren't they
you might want to upgrade your camera

this is your camera this is

recommending me a camera that comes with a virus? harsh criticism... :(

Wouldn't take that as criticism: I like the uninhibited atmosphere of blurry night shots.

Even though I can get crisp accuracy with the ISO capabilities of my cameras I prefer to get some atmosphere in the pictures I take of polo. Eg:

Really nice Snoops.

has anyone had experience of the Fuji X20 yet?

I was joking really after looking at the link, but yeah I agree/it was deliberate here (although I couldn't actually get crisp shots even if I wanted to), certainly not to everyone's taste though. Yours are good!

Originally I was trying to get a shot of the clouds of dust kicked up when he threw the bike around but I couldn't catch it clearly before we started running out of dust...

Right, the fool's have given me a credit card.
new camera time it is.
replacing D40, have a 35mm dx and 18-105dx lenses, so want to keep to Nikon dx body.
budget is £500, previously a D7000 was suggested. I am very close to buying a refurb for under budget, but the D5200 has caught my eye.
reviews seem to be that they are fairly similar (trickle down I guess) dual sd slots and on board AF are tipping the d7000, but the D5200 has some jazz too.
any users of either care to help?

D7000

Seperate aperture/shutter dials, custom modes, extra screen, live view and what you mentioned.

Love mine.

Good stuff, D7000 it is!

Awaits new card

Paddington bear, today, at Paddington. But in his yellow coat.

OK My holiday is booked and im not doing another holiday using iphone snaps as i was disappointed last time, what good compact or mirrorless camera that will be used on holiday/cycling for £200, and definitely interested in going used for value for money

Olympus E-PL2 has my eye, or something similar

First time I've not sent images from my X100 straight to SEP for b&w conversion, not sure if I like colour...

I've been thinking of selling my Olympus XZ-1 if you'd be interested in something like that, I think it would do what you want but do your research and let me know/ask me questions.

^ WIll have a look into it, dont really know enough cameras to know why its that pricey tho aha!

A bit murky and didn't quite work out but you can see what I was going for.

For the style conscious photographer.

Just a couple of shots I did for the current edition of The Chap magazine for a feature on pipe smoking. Smoke is fun, if not entirely straightforward, to photograph...

You've nailed the smoke right, nice work.

Thank you sir. These two models knew what they were doing, which was 80% of getting the shot!
