As a cyclist....car drivers scare me, Quite A Lot of the time.

Get a Panasonic TZxx compact or a fujifilm bridge if you want zoom without changing lenses. Don't get a sony bridge, the image quality has been poor compared to their rivals for a few years and they have a tendency to get oil on the sensors. If you think you might want to get into photography...

Hard case that attaches to your belt or a strap http://www.amazon.co.uk/T-Reign-Retractable-Gear-Tethers-Cases/dp/B00BF6QRFU/ref=sr_1_1?s=sports&ie=UTF8&qid=1426354154&sr=1-1&keywords=T-Reign+Retractable+Gear+Tethers+%26+Cases Something odd is going on with the pricing, I got the large...

We would have completely understood if there was a lack of space but what you can't see is the 4ft of blank space behind it, or the paid car park at the hospital. Traffic wardens being evil sods always turn up at visiting hours to catch the people on double yellows and grass (don't break the...

ah nuts! I would never have got that one :(

I work in a layby that is used as a free car park for a hospital so we've seen the being blocked in thing many many times. To answer the question: If you were legally parked and are then blocked in by another driver you call the police as they have prevented you from gaining access to your...

I've had this a few times over the years and it's to do with bot run blogs/picture dumps. Had one collecting pictures to do with female writers and another was a Russian one that seemed to be pulling pictures at random.

Woah I got one! I'll fire up me macro lens in the morning when there is light.

If it's in your budget then you should absolutely positively get the art lens. Also spare a thought for the DX Nikon 35mm f/1.8 or 50mm f/1.8 both are far better than they have any right to be for the money. I've always thought of the 35mm as Nikon's version of crack being sold to newbies "come...

Oh god I recognise this from one of my other hobbies but can't place it, is it a needle threader?

Widest I have is the tamron 17-50mm, oddly enough we were talking about this today, Karen wants to have a shot with all the cars snaking round in the background and a wider one of the cabin, I wasn't convinced at the time but now I'll give it a go when the light and pollution isn't horrid.

Sounds like an issue with either the connectors on the lens or on the camera. Have you tried a different lens yet?

Whelp.

I'm currently locked out flickr because, reasons, (yahoo ate my PW and I'm attempting to get it back via e-mail) but my advice is to find local photography groups in your area via groups and photographs of your home area and add members as friends. I met a older gentleman with donkey's years...

@Garry Edwards don't get me started on PETA either, I think they were bessed summed up by "PETA we hate people", the statistics for their "rehoming" centre is chilling at best http://www.petakillsanimals.com/proof-peta-kills/ the reason the kill figures are so high is because they have extremely...
