    Just bought a lens from eBay that has fungus

    Seller has responded. He said he wasn't aware of fungus. Whether he means on that lens or in general I don't know but I've popped the lens back in the post and he's willing to refund so all ends well hopefully.

    Just bought a lens from eBay that has fungus

    Yeah I will wait and see what they say eBay will have wanted me to contact them first anyway. But I know my money is safe eBay will find in my favour because the item isn't as described and I can easily provide photos. I gave the lens a quick go in my camera seems fine but if the fungus can...

    Just bought a lens from eBay that has fungus

    Thanks everybody I will message the seller with my pictures see what he says. The description said it was in good condition. I guess it would be without the fungus. The fungus is on the inside of the glass so would require taking the lens apart. Shame really was a nice buy for £46.50 inc...

    Mac mini

    I know you have your new mini now but I got a late 2012 i5 Mac mini and put 16gigs of ram in it myself and it's lightning fast! Photoshop CS6 opens in 2 seconds flat. Are you getting any screen flicker at the top of the screen? Apple released an update for this but it hasn't worked for me.

    Is iMessage really free?

    Only things you can do are either up your data limit or send less pictures via iMessage without using wifi. I have a gig of data and am always on my phone and never reach that.

    I think it's been said enough that iMessage is free to send pictures but there must be a reason why you are being charged so much how much data usage do you have on your phone contract? If that isn't the problem then maybe something in the iMessage settings on the phone it's self are to blame.
