I have the grip and the D810 feels like a toy now without it. Which is funny because I had a D7k before with a grip and now that feels like a toy even with the grip. I recently went to venice and could go out all day with just the camera and a lens. Knowing I wouldn't run out of power. Even...

Guys I'm a courier....We are trained to eat pies, read maps, and text whilst driving, All at the same time as slagging everyone else's driving whilst hogging driving in the middle our lane I was a passenger.....

My exterior lights are generic but controlled by one of these https://www.amazon.co.uk/Aeotec-Micro-Smart-Switch-DSC18103-ZWEU/dp/B00JGSDJKU

I had to turn the landing lights on whilst on the M25 last week for the plasterer back at home as he'd confused the module.

My HA is based around samsungs smartthings in my house. I think its fantastic. Philips Hue, Sonos and Alexa. With various dimmer controls. My garden lights and my exterior lights come on 22 mins before sunset and go off 30 mins before sunrise. When I leave the house the lights will turn on/off...

Check your tyres for free first. I'm not talking normal tyre drone. Its a common fault on golf's Google Castling tyres or saw tooth tyres. It could be wheel bearing BUT after a dealer told my father it was wheel bearings and after they changed them and then moved onto his Diff they eventually...

As usual Raymond, Cracking shots. The rule I break is not getting out often enough. I can go weeks even months without shooting. Then I have to re-learn again.......

Tyres can also cause a droning noise too. Check for uneven wear.

Does it get worse round bends on the loaded side

Looks like a cracking lens. Nice Bokeh too. Obviously not on the moon shots...lol Must not buy I don't need another lens Rinse and repeat Not sure how long I can keep that up.

We went for easter. Loved it and will defo be going back. Whilst there I bumped into a couple of guys who suggested some other areas. Washington street DUMBO for the bridge and ESB but theres another angle to get the bridge but with the WTC in the gap. Go early though as you wont be the only...
