    82mm Lens Cover and B+W thin filter

    Cokin Filters

    Thanks for your advice guys I haven't seen any thing you say that's really adverse to put me off the Cokin filters yet. As for the wider angle vignetting petehb mentions I believe there's a wide angle holder to over come this and I can't really justify the additional cost for the Z series...

    I'm thinking of getting the square Cokin Neutral Density Filter Kit and associated ring adaptor rings for my Canon 5D with lenses 16-35mm, 24-70mm & 70-200mm all L series. I'm wondering if this is the best option and are there any shortfalls or issues that I should be aware of? Also I have...

    Just asking what would be considered the best tripod for travel and general landscape/night photography. My current tripod is a cheap Velbon which although has served us well over the years it's fiddly to set up (i.e. I have to unlock several screws to change from landscape to portrait and...

    Timelapse photography

    Reason I wasn't able to make it work the first time round was incredibly simple in the end. Just in case anyone else needs to know and are having the same issues with a Canon camera this may help. Answer: Before connecting the camera to the PC, on the camera press "Menu" the go to "Setup...

    Timelapse photography

    No I can't get my Canon D350 to work remotely I assume that I need a better camera to do this. In addition I can't seem to find a remote intervalometer that will work with the Canon D350 is such a device available?

    Can anyone tell me if I can do time lapse photography with my Canon D350 and my laptop and if so how?

    Upgrading questions

    Upgrading questions

    Thanks for the replies guys, we mainly use the camera for travel photography but will take photos of any interesting events that happen locally. We do get some great shots with our equipment but write ups on the web for our Sigma 18-200mm lens were poor in comparison to other lenses. In...

    Upgrading questions

    My wife and I currently have a Canon D350 with Sigma 18-200mm lens, we bought this a while ago as we thought this would suit our needs for fair/good holiday pictures and the range and weight of the lens would be great for us. However, we’ve now caught the photography bug and having seen...
