Hi Can anyone help me with this problem, I was shooting a pet shoot today with the above lens and half way through the front ring fell off swiftly followed by the focussing ring. On closer inspection two of the screws are missing from the front ring. They are tiny screws and would be really...

As said before Mono with a bit more tweaking

I am leaning towards Zenfolio tbh - £50 pa is not much for what you get :-)

A friend of mine recommended Blurb to me for photo books, I've played around with their software and it's very easy to use, just haven't got around to ordering yet so can't personally comment on the print side yet.

I learnt to speak reasonable English because everyone around me was speaking it - I did not learn to draw because of that same reason - I have no formal training, neither of my parents were particularly artistic and I do not mix in artistic circles - please explain to me where that creative...

I have a 7D and a 5D Mk11 - the 5D is my no 1 and I wouldn't swap it for anything lower than a Mk111. However, it does occasionally have issues with focussing - only that one of the focussing points decides not work not that it doesn't focus at all. I shoot weddings and yes very rarely this...

I totally agree Chris - I can draw and paint & I have even sold some of my work - I haven't been taught how to do this I have just always been able to do it. There are certain technicalities that can be taught when it comes to Art as well as photography but I personally feel that some who walk...

I feel that creative ability is a natural occurrence it is not something that can be learnt - it is something that is within you. It is the same with artists, not everyone can draw and paint but those that can and do it well are the ones that produce the images that we want to look at.

They are a little more expensive than I can afford (I need three) - I was hoping that someone might have some other ideas of what I can use instead of these?

Any help with this please?

I have a Fuji finepix A607 that you can have for the price of postage It has a 128mb xd card in it plus a 8mb that came with it. Think its about a 3mp so should be ok for a 5 year old. Let me know if you're interested :-)

I have recently bought and installed a backdrop support system (see below) and I was wondering where I can buy spare poles from as the system I have will hold six rolls - they need to be 2" diameter and approx 2.7m long and i am looking for three of them. Can anyone help?

As long as you are happy that with the 2x 40D's you can still achieve what you are after then go for the new lenses

Micro fibre cloth for me - though I have been know to take the shower caps from hotel rooms and use them too :-)

Where in Wales are you looking to go - I was in the Neath Valley on Monday shooting waterfalls - there are three or four within a reasonable walking distance: River Neath below Pont Nedd Fechan Upper Ddwli Falls Lower Ddwli Falls and just lower down the Horseshoe Falls Sgwd (or Scwd)...
