    My mini Canon S90 review.

    Sorry, will get some pics up soon. The missus is 2 days over due (the reason i bought this was to photo the newborn) and so things are hectic. Wil take some low light stuff to show how good this cam is. The thing i love the most is the size. Its so portable and with incredible performance from...

    Canon G11 v G7..Mini Report.

    Get your money back and buy an S90. Bit cheaper and most of the same functions in a smaller package : http://www.talkphotography.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=207532 I too considered the G11 and would really like the adjustable focus point, but this thread has made me glad i didnt.

    My mini Canon S90 review.

    Well, after deciding for about a day on wanting a decent compact to take pics of my impending child I was set on buying a TZ7. I then thought to myself that I would be disappointed coming from a 5D Mkii, but I need something that fitted into my pocket. Having a list of 4 cameras ranging from...

    Seamless Paper BG Rolls.

    i love the enthusiasm. Things i got to think about is transporting it in the car to my studio (i rent a place out) and if 2.72m is wide enough for a group shot, as i have a 3m wide stand and still sometimes have to PS white bits around the people.

    Seamless Paper BG Rolls.

    Sorry to jump in. Are the rolls simply thick paper, or are they somethign different. I use muslin at the moment and fed up with getting the creases out all the time and worrying if it rips, so thinking of paper.

    Good on screen, rubbish on paper. Can i do it ?

    Funnily enough ive been having a go with ProShow Gold tonight and i cant seem to get decent results. Im using my original files (between 5mb and 10mb) and puting them in as a DVD but on my PC the result is pretty poor, not coming up half as good quality as if i were to put jpges on...

    Good on screen, rubbish on paper. Can i do it ?

    What i have done is reduce them to 2000px, 72dpi, then saved them as '0' quality in PS making them from 5.3mb down to 100kb and TBH it doesnt look that bad. Id be happy with it if it didnt mean i spent money on it !!!! I also provide a DVD slideshow, so could use your idea to provide one disc...

    Good on screen, rubbish on paper. Can i do it ?

    Hello all, Im after an idea on how i can make some images look good on screen but when someone tries to print them out they look noticeably rubbish. This is for obvious reasons; to stop people nicking my photos off a sample CD i give them (even though the watermark is all over it). I have...

    Finally .... some older kids

    Not that im making excuses (honestly guv :shake:) In some of them i had to keep the floor visible as it looked a bit odd as with hi key its tricky to make them not look like they are floating. Even some of the jumping ones look a touch odd with no floor. Um, just brothers and a sister. They...

    Whats an acceptable second body?

    Cheers for the input David1701. I ended up buying a 50D and sticking a Tokina 11-16 f/2.8 on it. Now, this has already come in very good use as i have used it for a portrait session and got some superb results with it. Have alook here for the WA shots i took ...
