    Canon EF-S 18-200 - is there a better equivalent?

    ok, yes i see that - mine didn't when i had it so i guess it was the previous one - that's an option then...

    Canon EF-S 18-200 - is there a better equivalent?

    Hi, i use the 18-200 a lot because of its flexibility in street shooting etc - eg it's great for marches / festivals for getting both scene views and closeups. But as many will know it's not great quality in terms of optics etc - it can get great shots but sometimes in imperfect light it really...

    Clone stamp problem in CS6

    Hi I'm having problems with the clone stamp tool in CS6 - basically it is not always working and i cannot work out why. I've googled and only found a couple of threads about it, but none of the possible solutions are right - i seem to have all the right settings: 100% opacity 'all layers'...

    image damage when rotating in CS6

    Well, i just think my computer was on a go-slow, so it was genuinely a turning-it-off-turning-it-on-again scenario, nothing more than that...

    image damage when rotating in CS6

    Thanks for the replies - tbh this seems to have sorted it self out - i think it must just have been an off-day for my computer - will update if it still looks like an issue...

    image damage when rotating in CS6

    well, i'd saved as a PSD i think but that shouldn't be a problem - and i know the original image was fine - as i say i've tried working on the same image in PSE10 and it's fine no cracks or damage - it's definitely something happening to the image when i rotate it in CS6 and the reason for the...

    image damage when rotating in CS6

    Anyone got a fix for the following: rotating a canon raw image in CS6 is causing it to have small breaks in the image - rotating in the same way in PSE10 is not causing the same thing - this is not a 'presentation' thing - if i convert the PSD file to a jpeg the faults are still there: see pic...

    Upgrading from 550D to 7D2 or 5D3 - Opinions...

    technically dogs aren't wildlife they're domesticated animals. :) but this is a thread that i've been meaning to start - if (a big 'if' as it would mean a lot of investment for me) i upgrade from the 60D it's mainly to get better shots of birds some of which will be on the move however i do...

    1.4 or x2 converter for Canon 100-400 MkII?

    well it's birds / wildllife so i need to get closer as the subject isn't taking up much of the shot so i have to crop anyway unless it's just a bird in a landscape - ideally i get closer in person but it's tricky if something is on the other side of a lake... note i'm only talking about larger...
