    Is it my lack of skill or my gear?

    Hi folks, me again! I'm now in a position to get a better lens. Budget up to £800. I really do like the look of the sigmas, do any of you have a preference? Thanks Abi

    Me again haha. Think the sigmas are appealing to me. I've heard people talking about them while I've been out and about. Just got to choose which one now. London camera exchange has tonnes of used lenses!

    Hi there! I've just finished my master's degree which means I am now free to pursue my photography, which I'm excited about. I really don't know what needs to be worked on though - my gear or my skills. I currently do mainly wildlife photography and use a canon EOS 4000D usually with a Tamron...
