    Lavender in Provence

    Thanks, some of them look so dull we've struggled tot work out if they're yet to be in full flower or if they are already dying back. In a couple of places it seems like its already been harvested

    Lavender in Provence

    I'm hoping to get back to the Abbey there at a different time of day to see how different the light might be, but without a more intense purple I might be on to a loose with that one - and of course, being there at the right time to find someone tending to it again could prove impossible - we...

    Lavender in Provence

    Thanks for the suggestion, but I don't think that's quite what I'm looking for - not that I do know exactly what I'm after.

    Lavender in Provence

    HI all, haven't posted in ages, hope you're all well? I was out and about trying to learn my new D7200 at the weekend, this was one of the shots I got. What do you think?

    Well I've been and gone and done it. Got a D7200 ordered from Panamoz this evening, hoping I'm not going to be disappointed coming from a D300

    The Nikon D400.......

    I haven't! There are so few occasions when I've thought I needed it that I just haven't worried about it enough to take the plunge

    The Nikon D400.......

    The 24-70 has been on my shopping list for a long time now but there always seems to be something else to get first. One of these days.........

    The Nikon D400.......

    That's interesting to know, its the TC20II that I've got. The 1.4 is a Kenko

    The Nikon D400.......

    I can well believe that, is it that Nikon 1.4 you've got or a Kenko?

    The Nikon D400.......

    I did wonder if it would work better with the new sensors and AF systems, but its a big ask to go putting the TC20 onto the 300 F4
