FWIW my other half had this problem earlier this evening. Half way through the update she received a phone call on her phone - after the call the watch sat prepairing doing absolutely nothing. She turned the power off on her watch, turned it back on again and the prepairing disappeared after a...

I had mine fail at the end of May, was out shooting and briefly saw a red battery warning symbol saying 'battery empty' flash up in the viewfinder and the camera switched off. I had only taken a few shots on a full battery so knew it actually wasn't empty. Tried another battery/powering from my...

That is the first good news I have heard over the last few days - nice one:)

We have had this in the past with a heat only boiler - the outlet pipe from the header tank was blocked on one of the bends. Took some finding at the time but got there in the end. Hope you get it sorted asap. Cheers-Paul.

Funnily enough I had the same problem a few weeks back - thought it was just me being new to the Imac world!! Couple of weeks after I first noticed it whilst plugging in one of my external hard drives I noticed the keyboard usb connection at the back of the machine was only plugged half way in...

DigitalRelish - Have just installed Xee3 and that looks even better - thanks for the tip. Paul.

Thanks for that Greg, sounds like Faststone could be what I'm after, I shall have a look this evening. Just re-read the post and realised Faststone is for Windows, have just installed XnView MP and looks very good so far. Thank you for the info Greg - Paul.

Greg - this XnView MP is it similar to 'Windows Picture Viewer', since switching to a Mac earlier this year this is one feature I do miss. Looking at the download page it has a lot more features than Picture Viewer but for quick scrolling through photos it could be ideal. (Apologies Sootchucker...

I think Rob is probably correct regarding distance/heat haze, but also I see you are shooting at f8/f11 in the above shots. My 200/500 on my D500 is very sharp at f5.6, might be worth upping the shutter speed and shooting at f5.6. Could be worth a try before blaming the camera body and also...

Same here Dave, bought mine last weekend, went with the 1tb Fusion Drive, 16Gb Ram and faster processor - seems very fast compared to my old PC. Always got the option of upgrading the Ram as well if required. Managed some editing last night for the first time on a Mac with Lightroom/Photoshop...

Superb photo's but number 5 Jake Dixon is a cracker.

Another D500 now correctly updated - Thank You Andrew. That'll teach me to read the instructions next time!! Cheers Paul.

Found a few photos here of Donna Nook and The Milky Way, maybe of use to you. https://www.facebook.com/pages/Donna-Nook/138596702835128 Scroll down a couple of pages and you'll see them. I only live 20 minutes down the road - probably give it a go myself on the darker nights. Cheers Paul.

Love the first shot - that's me in there co-driving!! Drivers first ever forest event and he absolutely loved it - had an excellent day. Great shots Darren:clap: Cheers Pau.

Got to be no.2 Simon - that's me co-driving:). Must say you've got some very decent shots in the challenging conditions :clap: :plus1: Cheers Paul.
