Went hunting for mushrooms today, still thinks its not quite the right weather to find the best ones. All taken on a D7500 with a 35mm DX f1.8 lens for the first and the 85mm DX f3.5 macro for the second two. Dryad's saddle by Ian Diplock, on Flickr Deer shield 2 by Ian Diplock, on Flickr...

Thank you.

My longest camera was a Panasonic Lumix G80, had it for about 7 years. Reasons I kept it so long was that it produce the results I needed and was comfortable to carry and easy to use. I changed it a couple of years back and had gone back and forth between a couple of cameras but have settled on...

Sorry to hear of your loss. I can't begin to imagine what you and your family are going through, my thoughts are with you all at such a difficult time. I can only echo what others have said and allow yourself time to grieve and come to terms with with what has happened, be there for each other...

I seem to have a bit of an internal argument with myself at times trying to decide if my D7500 is good enough or should I go back to mirrorless, had a G80 and E-M1.3 and others in the past but this thread reminds me that A) what I have is more than enough for me and B) the price of some F mount...

I think you need to pick what seems most logical to yourself and means your looking for something you can find it easily. I tend to go for a folders for what the occasion was, like a holiday, day out, etc. but then I do also have things like a transport, wildlife folders etc. I don't think they...

Here's a few from a recent woodland trip to hunt for Fungi. I was planning to do some woodland photography too but got side tracked with the fungi. All taken with a D7500 and the 85mm f.35 micro lens. I stupidly left the VR on for all the shots and also had no cable release so was using a 2...

Thank you.

A few taken over the weekend while in Prague, such a great city to visit. So much to photograph. Wasn't hard to find great composition's, worst bit would be the number of people about that stop you getting a clean shot. All taken on a Nikon D7500 with 16-85mm DX lens. All handheld with the night...

Recently picked up a D7500 and a couple of lenses. Went out last night after some rain had passed over and as the sun was setting. Made the mistake of moving away from the barn to a another location and 5 minutes later I could see it was bathed in sunshine. By the time I would of got back the...

Here's a couple from me from the garden shot with an E-M1.3 and 40-150 f2.8. Struggled a bit with autofocus and what settings to use so if anyone has any advice for bugs etc I'd appreciate it. Hummingbird hawk-moth by Ian Diplock, on Flickr Red peacock butteryfly by Ian Diplock, on Flickr

I think I had one of those years ago. Tried to clean it in the washing machine but didn't do it any favours. Will have to get a new one I think. I can't remember where the kit came from but it was a company specialising in camera cleaning equipment. Hopefully it'll still be okay The last...
