Ok thanks for your replies. You are right I shoudn't have ordered on A1, so i'll sholder part of the blame on that one. It does say they'll email if there is a poor fit or if there is excessive crop. A0 is the widest standard frame size they offer, which is still a lot squarer than I envisaged...

I know the original image isn't amazing but someone requested it as a print. Am I right to be furious at this? Excuse the blurs. Original image: What the printer returned. The print is A1 landscape, which I chose, the image is wide. Fair enough if you can't get it to fit, email me.

Hey guys, feeling a bit stupid right now. So I lost my camera, it was my (very trusty) 7 year compact so nothing insane in the budget dept but still, It was my first camera and I learnt photography from scratch on it. I took it in a boat on a river with me several times and got some great...

My PC monitor is 32" lawl. Great for working on photo's etc. To answer the question: There are still the same number of pixels on a 42" as a 32" if 1080p is their max resolution.

Maybe if you are shooting underground. When I wrote that I was thinking of side by side comparison of the same image. Specificaly I was attending a sporting event over two days, the first was over cast and the second had clear skies all day. I wasen't shooting with the sky in mind, it was...

The way I learnt was shooting in a pitch black environment, as I was underground I was able to control all aspects of the lighting and how the final image would look. I went about light painting and messed about with different settings etc on my compact. Over time I moved to above surface...

It's all in your mind. I used to be like that, then gradually forgot about it.

I don't bother shooting on cloudy days. Ive had light so good in the morning it was electric. I've also had light so dull and flat it was difficult to get any pics. Any pic taken with a clear sky is likly to be 500% better then any overcast pic. So much so I hardly bother taking outdoors pics...

Beuse not every BP petrol station can afford to have military technology watching their fuel pumps? This isn't actually all that new, high res mosaics of things with multiple cameras have been around for a bit. I think the only differences is the video aspecto of it. Personaly, this is ok. What...

This is something I really want to build. I've been looking at various designs and have settled for a rack and pinion drive with the motor, controller and power supply all mounted to the carriage, which would be captive to the rail. I had planned to the the Arduino board as well. Thanks for...

Shooting a certain sporting event twice now, I came away both days with 120 and 125 photographs. Only one was a true keeper on the first day (poor light) and about 6 or 7 on the second. I do try and get it right the first time and spend time with the viewfinder before depressing the shutter...

Borrowed my dad's Kodak compact 4mp camera in 2006 to take some photographs for my AS coursework. He's not a photographer, just had a P&S for shots but his interest has grown as mine has. Snowballed from there.

Nice set, technically good, sharp, frozen. Slightly less keen on #1 & #3, looks like the skier is skiing out of the photograph.

Please elaborate a bit more? #1 and #3 have very strong primary focal points imho, is this not so? #2 is slightly weaker, the others I can see what you are getting at. Hmm, something to think about, thanks guys!
