    Buying second hand Mpb

    Mifsuds also have a 10% discount offer running at the moment (for phone or shop orders) so you could get the lens and teleconverter for £1258, and if you can sell the teleconverter you'd have a new lens plus warranty for around £1100. The discount offer won't last forever though, but worth...

    The Fabulous Fuji X owners thread

    I'm not quite sure where the confusion is coming from. For the Mac at least, there is only one downloadable for Capture One 11, I expect it is the same for Windows. When you run the software for the first time you get to choose the version you wish to run, there are many. The Fuji Express and...

    Does this corrupt memory cards?

    Having scanned through this thread, I can't see anyone explaining why your tutor would have said what he said - apart from saying it is good practice / an old wives tale / etc. So here goes: SD cards, CF Cards etc are just a form of flash storage which is a development of EEPROM (Electrically...

    Photography Show 2017

    Maybe because I was looking at different things, but: I went on the last day (Tuesday) and thought that the prices of Fuji equipment at the show were very good.

    Nikon 24-70 grinding

    Hi James, I had a problem with my 24-70 a few years ago. I think the parts that locate in the helical screw inside the zoom go out of alignment. I sent mine to Fixation and it was all fixed (including a new grip) for around £100. Make sure you mentioned what the problem & fix could be...
