You know you’re getting old when soldiers start looking so young

I’m not sure if it would be suitable or not, but would something with a touch screen suffice if he could make all the required changes on the screen? It would open up a lot of options as an awful lot of cameras are touch screens these days. The ones I’ve had have allowed touch shutter too so...

At the risk of making an ass of myself I can only assume it’s VAT being added as it’s coming from Japan, it’s also 20% which would tie in. I don’t know for sure though, I haven’t bought from outside the UK on eBay before, no doubt somebody will be along shortly that knows more than me :)

I don’t have a Fuji camera to test, but I know on my Sony I have to set the USB type to “mass storage” on the camera to use it this way. I’ve had a quick look online and it looks like it might be the same for the Fuji :)

Seems to have performed nicely! The last shot of the gentleman is my favourite though, looks like he's mid-story to me :)

For those who haven’t got a TPM chip, it may be worth checking your BIOS settings as some boards have them but are disabled from the factory. Different manufacturers call them different things, so may not necessarily say TPM anywhere so a quick google for your board may be worth it. Also, if...

I’ve shot some expired 160 VC in the past with decent results. The first roll or two I shot at box speed and they had a green cast to them, the most recent roll i shot of it was actually at ISO64, some overexposure for the date and some for the fact I like overexposed Portra. The ISO64 ones came...

A town local to myself called Skelmersdale has more subways than I've seen anywhere else, the roads don't have footpaths as such but a completely separate network of paths away and under the roads. It's fine except you have to learn the town twice, and given that it's a modern town with no...

Well that’s a very kind gesture and I accept as long as you’re sure. If you change your mind for whatever reason there’ll be no hard feelings from this end :) I’ll be sure to pass the kindness on if I see the opportunity in the future! :D

I like it, even though they’re socially distancing, the wording has brought them together visually and metaphorically :D

:lol: I had no idea it was causing such upset, perhaps I should remove the image! That certainly is a kind gesture and one I would certainly be interested in, and if it’s going to realign the feng shui of the forum I feel it may be a moral duty for me to accept. I am more than happy to pay some...

I wonder if the SD card survived :thinking:

This is one from my second ever roll of FP4 and I'm just not sure it's for me. I seem to like HP5 more so I'll probably stick to shooting that for the time being. I've recently tried Delta 400 too but despite being nice still doesn't have the same je ne sais qoui for me either, albeit it was...

I hope my throwaway question hasn’t started a whole thing here :lol:

I guess that's what you get for shooting near the water! Are they seagulls or common gulls? I was once chastised by a 9 year old for misnaming them so I've taken to calling them BayGulls :D
