    Where to get a couple of calendars printed for Christmas?

    I used Optimal print to get a couple done a couple of weeks ago, probably not the cheapest but a couple of good A3 calendars from my photos for the year ahead which is what I wanted. HTH Trev.

    Choice of two lenses

    I have owned the 150-500 and it was shocking. The image quality was terrible and adding a 1.4 TC made the images unusable. Of course I could have had a poor one. The camera I had it on was a D7000. I did consider the 150-600 as some of the reports from contacts who had one were good but I...

It's the cr4p that comes with windows that does my head in if I could get rid of that and have the latest windows with the interference from windows 97 I would be over the...

    New desk top spec.

    Thanks Graham. Tried looking at what is holding it up but struggled to find anything obvious. Run spyware/ malware programs and that always comes up nothing found. The carp comes from the bits that windows adds in that I don't need or want. Cortana, Edge, apps etc etc.

    Anyone know anything about trail cameras?

It is one of the best things we have got for the garden, it is out everynight through spring summer and autumn it will record stills and video with good detail and starts pretty much once it is triggered. We have it set for 5...
