I have been using an ASUS gaming monitor for long enough, but wanted something more photography orientated. It's the same old thing of only having two out of the three options. You can have it good, you can have it cheap, you can have it quick. Just two, not all three. Or can you?! Monitors are...

I had my cataract done about five years ago, but over the last few months, my vision has been deteriorating. To the extent, I thought there was a serious problem. The optician talked about the issue and recommended a private YAG person. I had that this morning and the difference to my vision is...

Great thread, thank you. Are clubs primarily concerned with the dark winter evenings and close for the summer?

I purchased from Cotswold Cameras and it’s been a good experience. It is a grey import but hard to ignore the price. I hope you find what you’re looking for.

As strange as this may sound, I always carry a tripod with me, all the time! It just hooks on to the scooter or lies across my electric front wheel mounts. Hard to describe, but it is always there. Thanks for the heads up though, very thoughtful of you.

I went with a K&F kit on Amazon which applied a 15% discount.

Completely missed that, sorry!

Thanks, @AdamSi, for keeping me straight. Yeah, that's the most sensible way forwards. On order.

I am looking to buy a second battery. Any thoughts on which I should get?

I've just bought one of these which seems to do, Good for charging at 30w but I'm not sure if you may need something more powerful?

Sorry for my glib terminology. Modem-only and no Wi-Fi is the same for me at my pay grade. Mesh will help cover a better area, but if that isn't required, check out a Wi-Fi 6+ or 6E router, maybe? The 6+ support up to 1gig Wi-Fi. I connect to my office router with an Ethernet cable, and that...
