    Photographing a "Prohibited Place"???

    I could make a sign like that and put it on any wall/fence, under who's authority has the sign been set there? no signature, no advice on who authorized it? Russ.

    Beginner Mac M2 V M4 16GB?

    I bought the DXO Photo lab 9 to replace my Lightroom as my sub runs out next year but PL9 is very restrictive on a Mac Mini M2 16gd ram when it comes to some of the AI options, I thought maybe the M4 although still only 16GB ram might have done better but seems from what I have read it will be...

    Hi, I'm the wrong side of 70 and found the Cotton Carrier system ideal although a little expensive but worth the money IMO. Russ. https://cottoncarrier.eu/pages/camera-harness

    Oldie Tread Mill?

    So at this time of year where I live seems to rain 6 days a week and at my age cannot risk getting soaked for a bit of exercise so been looking at one of the these under the table tread mills (I live in a small bungalow) they range from £1000's to £50 and yes I no you only get what you pay for...

    Nikon Z* mirrorless

    Not the 2x but the 1.4 thought the images using the DX option gave better results than the 1.4.

    Anyone Have The Mac Mini M6, 512GB SSD & 32GB Ram?

    Hi, thinking about going from my M2 16GB Ram to one of these M6 Mac's with 32GB Ram & a 512 SSD, I bought the M2 three years ago and it's done well but cannot run DXO PL 9 when any AI is used (very sluggish), Lightroom runs well alongside DXO pure raw 6. Anyone upgraded or purchased the M6 model...
