    Two questions regarding Canon crop sensor and full frame cameras

    Last year I had a 6D1 and a 60D at the same time, and using the same lenses and compensating for the crop factor the 6D out did the 60D in terms of quality everytime. This year I have a 5dIV and in terms of image quality it out performs anything I have ever owned before by miles. Just my...

    Good service from a photography retailer

    Cant agree more about WEX. We recently called in on one of the evenings they open late because we were on holiday in the area and I didnt realise they were so close by. Anyway I was indesisive about what to buy but their chap (whos name escapes me) was fantastic, he absolutley understood my...

    How can you spot a fake Canon LP-E6 Battery?

    I bought a "genuine" battery from ebay for my 60D but when I bought my 6D I found the charger won't charge the "genuine" battery I bought shortly before.

    In camera Wifi. How good is it?

    I have it on the 6D and I don't think it is very good, it only works for file transfer in JPEG and I shoot mostly RAW. The Iphone app for controlling the camera is mereley a novelty because it is way too slow to be any use. Sorry to be blunt but I thought it would be way better than it actually is.

    Critique Market Stall, Bury

    I quite like it, it has a surprising effect in that you don't see the stall holder unless you really look into the image and then because you only see his head it kind of mirrors the mannequins. I know what you mean about street photography being a bit scary, I'm doing a photography degree and...

    So what exactly are photography students being taught?

    I am another OCA photogrpaphy student and have to agree that the course emphasis is on the art side of photography however there is an underlying tone that your technical stuff needs to be correct. Some projects are quite simple to acheive technically but to get that stand out shot that your...
