Don't know if it's already been mentioned on here... but in the early days, before I discovered TP, I used to contribute to the forums on the AP website. Just noticed it is no more.... not as if it is dormant or anything, so whatever the poster has put up has vanished. Thought it was very...

how annoying!

And more AI generated stuff as well.. For me, it's a way of sharing my images with friends and family - if I do work or social photography it's the easiest way and I can put links in emails/Viva Engage etc.

I paid double that for mine, but that was still when the 'G' was new. That and my 50/1.4G are my least used lenses.

Very nice, I've got several taken in 2022 just like 2-4, but 1 is a fabulous viewpoint I missed, just happened to catch a Greater Kestrel landing in a tree between the road and the viewpoint so I turned to nature photographer rather than landscape :rolleyes:

Fabulous capture, makes the Tanagers I photographed in Costa Rica seem so dull...

Bootiful!

Thanks for sharing that Phil.... my D500 fills up faster now that I use UHS-II cards in the SD slot rather than the UHS-I Extreme Pros (with CF E Type B in the XQD slot)...so paying the extra for 'better' SD cards is not worth the extra expense reading into that comparison.

That's going to spoil the party for the Societies show that happens yearly in Hammersmith... been past 2 years and it is a shadow of the shows that took place pre-covid (some great deals there but not for what I was after (CFE Type B card £129. Amazon £100). I enjoyed Focus on Imaging went I...

I use a small HP laptop which is very light, but found myself limited recently by using an older SD card reader which was slow to transfer files from card to HDD. Now I have a newer SD card reader (suitable for UHS-II) speeds have shot up. I then use the laptop to cull some of the images which...

Check out established photographers who do regular trips to Iceland, for example Lee Frost and Robert Canis. Opportunities and guidance are abundant with both, and I'd happily recommend them.

I stayed at the Movenpick too, over 15 years ago mind. Blue/golden hour on Charles Bridge is a must, but I recall a long walk (or an underground ride). Again, a long way from the hotel you can walk to the castle and there is a park which gives good views down into the New Town on the way up...

It's a beast. And depends which version you have, I had a Sigma 180mm Macro f3.5 (EX version) which stopped working on my D810 after a firmware upgrade, as it was not a newer lens Sigma were not interested in modifying the lens (it was fine on the D500). mind you, I have only heard good...

I NEVER GET BORED OF ROBIN PHOTOS Blue Tits - another matter....
