    CPL filters for car and bike photography?

    Yes that's very true and it is something I don't deny but as I mentioned above, that is how I roll and like everything in photography there are no hard and fast rules :) It's how I use a CPL around a track and it works for me, maybe if I did rotate the CPL between places I walk to I may get...

    CPL filters for car and bike photography?

    Why? I don't and so far everything has worked OK. At the end of the day, if you have a CPL then try it on a few shots then look in post and see what it has done, it's the easiest way to find out :)

    CPL filters for car and bike photography?

    I use CPL on and off but this season I have used them more, I personally stick the filter on set the polarity by looking through the view finder then slap the lens hood on an leave it alone. I use Auto ISO so don't have an issue if I loose a stop or two, works for me and I think it helps...

    Alternatives..

    Alternatives? Nikon Z6III, Z8 or Z9 plus Nikon Z 100 - 400mm or 180 - 600mm. Sony A7IV, A7V, A9 family or A1 plus Sony 200mm - 600mm. Leica Sl3 with an L mount 100 - 400 or 200 - 600 lens. Yes some of the cameras are 24Mb but unless you are cropping the living daylights out your image then...

    Old debate and possibly done to death?

    No not really. I use 35mm sensor, MFT, 1.6 & 1.3 crop and never had any problem shooting in the UK and it glorious grey skies. The only really advantage of using 35mm sensors is if you work at really high ISO a lot, like north of 10000 or if you are wanting to get that '3D pop' of your...

    A big film scanner thread

    I've been using Vuescan on and off for a number of years and through several variations of Mac OSX as well, I have two scanners, a Microteck 120tf and a Nikon Coolscan IV and both work really well. Like many I have updated the Vuescan software as new versions have come out up 9.8.55 that was...

    Colour issue with Affinity Canva

    I use Affinity V3 and n the Settings I set the Colour Space to the one I want and I make sure any other editing software is also set to the same colour space. The only time Affinity V3 changes colour space is if I scan a B&W image as a grey scale then take it into Affinity it will try to...

    Nik Silver efex "advanced" tutorial suggestions (and bit of a review)

    I picked up Version 8 simply because I could not get the free version from years ago to run on the OS I have. To be honest not a huge al=mount has changed, it does pretty much the same as it did before, the interface is nicer, its a bit quicker and I think it now has a little more control over...

    Nikon F801

    Well just done. Google and found this, whether it fixes the issue I've no idea Rewind/Advance Issues: The camera may fail to advance the film, often displaying 'E' in the right-hand corner. Try pressing the [Mode and Drive buttons] together to reset the camera

    Nikon F801

    Nikon F801? If you click the shutter when no film is loaded does it sound like the advance is working? If so then the film has not caught on the roller and hence fails to load. If the film is far enough across and is not being taken up then it could be the motor has failed.

    What's up with e-group.uk.net

    Just been to look and the site is there but every link I clicked on from the front page I got a '404' error. Not tired logging in but I guess that may not be functioning yet.

    Using Mouse Wheel to navigate between images in Bridge (macOS)

    I only use the Apple Mouse but none of the programs you have. Have you looked in the System Settings to access the Mouse and configure it? Usually you can get the Mouse to mimic what MS Mice can do.

    Drones?

    Dear all. Thank you very much for the information and it seems there is a little bit more to getting and flying a drone than I first thought. @mikeyb thanks for the links and to the video one interesting thing is that in the video it names thedronemap.com which, if I look at it shows that...
