Thank you for your reply @juggler. Much appreciated. The theory of the cards I feel is a good one but not at the expense of photographer frustration and I feel in this day and age we all need speed from our equipment and if this cheap version doesn't work, maybe you're right and I will explore...

Hi, Just out of interest I wondered if anyone used these SD Cards? Do they improve your workflow, save time transferring files across to your computer, tablet, mac etc I thought about using them at sports venues but through the grapevine I know they're class 10 cards but do they keep up with...

I second that @Steve75 Darren Heath's photographs are just out of this world.... (imo of course) but i just enjoy looking at his work so much :clap:

Hi all, I'm interested in buying a GoPro for sports events and getting as confused as to what model to buy and to be honest i think it's going to come down to budget rather purchasing a particular one. I understand GoPro's probably have the name, reputation and probably the most popular brand...

On Monday i went to tha Photography show at the NEC. After spending most of the day there i was about to leave and realised Bob Martin was doing a seminar on the Nikon stand, So (video) camera in hand i stopped and listend and recorded him. (Did anyone else go and listen to him??) A very...

Thanks guys for the recomendations! had considered Think Tank too so may hunt around for the size i may need and price match but that Calumet equivialnt is a fraction of the normal price :eek::eek::eek:

Hi all, Having carried a ruck sack with my gear for far too long i'm going to reat myself to a trolly with wheels as my back is just starting to protest far too much due to the weight!. Apart for trying to work out which size case i need for my gear now! and then any future additions i was going...

Thanks for your time to reply. :) Im pretty sure i'm exporting my JPEGS to the chosen picture size so i cant understand why if a jpeg is 6x4, 5x7, 10x8 size why i get it chopped off on the paper of that same size. There must be a hidden p[tion i'm not seeing @Peter B so will look for this scale...

Sorry all i wondered if you oculd advise why sending a jpeg to my printer it cuts off a percentage of the edges? I use a Canon MG7550 and within Lightroom i'm using a RAW file probably croping (to a ratio) around the person i'd like to keep as the main feature. I then export this file to the...

Thanks for the feedback guys! 5D3 is a great camera but how did canon overlook this issue with a tiny piece of plastic we insert into the SD Card slot which causes such an issue with its users? :(

Thanks for your feedback @Vertigo1 .... I'll do a few test shots to see if ratings do go to both cards but not getting my hopes up! Was just hoping whilst out i could quickly swap SD cards with probably JPEG and ratings attached to quickly edit/upload those pictures and then after the session...

Hi all, I wondered if someone could be kind enough to advise? I do try and buy the best and fastest CF and SD cards i can afford although one card is ls slightly faster than the other am i right in thinking this cameara drops its speed down, to the slowest camera setting? Also with two cards...

Santa didnt bring me any new camera's or lens's but hope everyone had a good Christmas! Here's to a happy and healthy new year to you all! :)

Guys i'm really sorry if i mess up the thread with you brilliant answers given to a good question which really interests me and your skills & knowledge is currently above my pay grade but Its almost disheartening (but a sign of the times i suppose) Is it a case now there's too many...

Thank you, you're right i think i really need the focal length... to get more in game shots rather than sit and wait for the game to come back to me :)
