    LPOTY 2020

    I've had one short listed entry, but didn't think it was the strongest image of those I submitted so not holding out much hope for getting any further. Interesting to see how others see and judge your worth though.

    Sigma DP Merrils Price Drop

    These little cameras sure produce the goods. LCD screen sure isn’t the best, but you only using it for composing the shot and is no reflection of the finished article. I’ve also found the operating system on Sigma cameras very user friendly, which has lhelped using their cameras. Attached...

    Lightroom book

    Hi, as the title suggests I'm after recommendations for a Lightroom CC book. I have a Scott Kelby one for a previous version of LL, which I liked, but was wondering if anyone had used one by a different author. Thanks in advance, Dave

    Lightroom or Capture one

    I am in the process of upgrading to a newer iMac after getting a Sony A7RII, which also means upgrading my photo editing software from an older version of Lightroom. There seems to be quite a lot of posts on various forums about Lightroom being slow on iMacs so wondered if anyone has any...

    Photo editing hardware.

    Thanks Rob, I did realise that and was one of things that has made me think of upgrading my current iMac. At the moment my wife also uses it and never deletes anything so both the internal and external hard drives are nearly full. I was thinking of starting with a new iMac with a lightroom...

    Photo editing hardware.

    Thanks for the reply footman. I’m not sure what an equivalent windows system would cost as that’s not what I’m after, so good to know the iMac should run without too many issues if any.

    Selling is asking £950 for the iMac, but the ram needs upgrading as only comes with 8gb. As a result, I’d hope to get it for less than he’s asking. Even if I don’t end up buying it this is still the rough budget i’m working on.

    Photo editing hardware.

    Further to above I suppose what I'm after is examples of what set up people are using and their views on how well it works. I'm not a pro and don't generally takes loads of shots in one go so I don't need a machine that can handle a high volume of large files. I've also used Sigma cameras with...

    I do like osx as the iMac I've been using has been very stable. However, I'm not against looking at alternatives if it gives me more choice of performance against price.

    Photo editing hardware.

    Morning, I have just purchased a A7riii and am looking at moving to the latest version of Lightroom that supports this camera. However, I'm also thinking of upgrading my 2009 iMac and this is the reason for the post as I'm after some advice or information about what people use to edit their...

    The Amazing Sony A1/A7/A9/APS-C & Anything else welcome Mega Thread!

    Thanks for the replies. I'm currently waiting to hear back from a couple of places about how much my Mamiya medium format gear is worth. Depending on this will influence what camera/ lens combo I go for.

    The Amazing Sony A1/A7/A9/APS-C & Anything else welcome Mega Thread!

    Morning, I'm after some advice regarding the Sony ff cameras and do apologise in advance if the questions have been covered elsewhere on the forum. I shoot mainly landscapes so am after something with very good image quality hence the reason to move up to full frame. Given I'm not after super...
