    If you select albums along the bottom of the screen you should have one titled camera roll. That should just be your shots and the WhatsApp images should be in the WhatsApp folder.

    Sigma 50-500mm

    I managed to get a Sigma 150-500 with OS for £330 on eBay. Unless you need that 50-150 range I’d shop around for the 150-500 with OS I’ve been happy with mine for the price. I’ve not used a non OS version so I cant say how much improvement there is but having that OS sure makes it easier to...

    eBay scams - what should I do?

    Check the address your sending it to. It sounds obvious but I had a problem selling a high value item on eBay a few months back. The buyers address was ‘verified’ by PayPal so I printed the label but it turned out the post code was incorrect. It was sent via RMSD but because the postcode was...

    GoPro on DSLR

    I sometimes mount my Hero 5 on my DLSR while on holiday. When out and about with my camera on a neck strap its easy to have it on there if I want to quickly take a video without having to dig it from my bag. I use a hotshoe to 1/4 thread then a 1/4 thread to action cam mount. This way it...

    Good Morning.

    Thanks for the welcome guys. Byker28i recently it's mostly wildlife, particularly birds. I try to get out most weekend mornings and see what I can find. Also like playing with long exposures, water and light trails.

    Beginner Teleconverters

    Wow, guys thanks for the feedback. Gamps that's an amazing shot! Ok so a TC will not be this magic piece of equipment I was hoping for... to be honest, i didn't think it would be. From what you've said though it may sometimes be of use and worth getting one to have a go with, I should just be...

    Beginner Teleconverters

    Good morning! I'd like some advice on teleconverters, please. I've recently bought a new lens, EF 70-300 IS USM II. Really happy with it so far. I did originally buy a 70-200 f4L but it lacked range and I thought I'd benefit more from an IS system. I took the 70-300 out at the weekend for some...
