So I took this to try and get a nice shot for me parents, with the night sky of course. How do you think I could improve this? All comments appreciated :) untitled-150 by Ben Critchley, on Flickr

Sounds like it could be good. Just come across the lowepro filter pouch which looks very appealing. Thanks for your suggestion though :-)

Hi Was just wondering how those who use 100x125mm filters store them. Do you use the original plastic wallet they come in, or do you have an option which can holder upwards of 6? Thanks

I had seen that, but wasn't sure of the overhead that's recommended for tripod and their weight allowances. Thank you anyway :)

Do you think the tripod will do the job? Will be with a 17-40 and 5d plus filters

Maybe this would be better off in the equipment sub section? Put it where you think mods, sorry!

Just getting into landscapes, and need a tripod. I'll most likely be hiking with it, up on Dartmoor, Brecon, Snowdon, Highlands etc, so have been leaning towards a carbon pod. This is what I've been planning on getting: http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00BSSD8IY I am relatively undecided on a...

Fair enough, I was worried you'd say that! Guess I'll have a shop around. Thanks.

Wanting to get one of these to try out with my 5Dc and 17-40. Don't want to spend the earth so are there any in particular that you guys would recommend? Thanks in advance.

It depends on how fast you need it to be. If you look up how fast the 40D can manage the pictures in MB/s then it'll tell you what the max speed it can manage is, hence you shouldn't buy a card that's faster than that. Sandisk and Lexmark are my go to but I've personally not heard bad things...

Is your firmware up to date?

I think that looks fantastic!, I'd love to have it on mine!

The first one's my favourite, but maybe a little over processed imho. The oof bit of grass in front of the car also detracts a little I think, but you might be able to sort that out in pp :)

Ooops, sorry :(
