Digital photography

As far as pictures of stairs go, I quite liked the second one and thought the shapes were interesting. The first one, I don't like the fact you can see yourself in the mirror taking the photo - I'm never keen on that in any shot.

However, I ain't into pictures of stairs. Nor cones or fences for that matter (though I do like the lines sometimes). Hence I prefer not to comment on something I don't get cos lots of people apparently do.

But that's just it innit, it's all about what you like and what you don't. Pictures aren't 'good' or 'bad'.

...though I did really like this fence. But maybe it was more the chairs. I dunno.

Thanks tina and El greeno, was just joshin' though

Can we see his photos?

I'm looking to sell my Canon eos 5d, let me know if any one is interested :)

I'm interested, will PM in the morning to confirm a few things.

Would be interested potentially too - let me know age/condition/price and any lenses or if body only.. thanks

Sunrise over Dundee docks

What's that thing on stilts? It looks massive.

Oil rig, either the Galaxy II or the ENSCO-120. In for repairs, looks pretty dramatic from the cycle path that runs through the docks.

Yeah mate, pretty near me.

When I was younger I always tried to cycle down the stairs. It's just off telford road and there are some other cool features on the same estate.

Thanks.

Anywhere else weird/ interesting to shoot? Any gardens/ parks worth looking into?

Again Thanks.

nice!

What is the difference between a D7000 & D7100?
Other than 100...

Eight mega pickles, some weather sealing and no anti-aliasing filter.

It's pretty much the same as 2010's D7000, with the addition of a stereo mic and headphone jack for video, a higher-resolution sensor, 51 vs. 39 AF points, a slightly larger LCD, and a first in any SLR: an OLED data display in the finder (Sony, Fuji and other cameras with OLED finders today aren't SLRs).

   The D7100's OLED display is just for the shooting  data in the finder, not the finder image display. From the 1980s through  yesterday, all electronic Nikon finder data displays have been LCDs,  usually backlit with a green LED. 
   There's also an inexplicably silly 1.3x crop mode, in which the frame rate climbs to 7 FPS. The 1.3x crop is inside the  [1.5x DX crop](http://www.kenrockwell.com/tech/crop-factor.htm) to make it a total of a 2x [crop factor](http://www.kenrockwell.com/tech/crop-factor.htm).
   In live view only, a new "spot" white balance mode. 
   The rear LCD adds auto brightness control. No  previous Nikon's auto LCD brightness control has worked properly; so  we'll see about the D7100. 
   The D7100 is very slightly bigger than the D7000, and very slightly (0.5 oz or 15g) lighter than the D7000. 
   There's a new *"i"* button for recalling recent settings, and just like the D600, there is now a lock button in the middle of the mode dial. 

   **Missing compared to the D7000 **
   Missing compared to the D7000 are the 640-pixel  resolution video modes. No analog A/V output cable is included, so the  D7100 may lack NTSC/PAL analog video outputs. 
   The finder only adjusts from as far as -2 diopters, from the D7000's -3 diopters. Both go to +1 diopters.  
   No LCD cover. 
   The D7100 has the same battery and charger as the  D7000, but is rated for 10% fewer shots per charge (only 950 for D7100  versus 1,050 for D7000). 

From Ken Rockwell's review of the D7100.

Chars!

My b0rked D7000 (which has been with cameraworld since October) is being swapped for a D7100. Doesnt look like I'm getting stiffed with a 71.

That's a pretty sweet deal.

Thanks.

Anywhere else weird/ interesting to shoot? Any gardens/ parks worth looking into?

Again Thanks.

There's an old gas works a bit further west along the canal, There's the skate bowl in meanwhile gardens which is interesting to shoot sometimes, there are also usually some sculptures surrounding it.

Brunel estate has some interesting banked features that could make cool subjects but I'd be a bit wary of hanging about too long around there with an expensive camera out.
