    The Fabulous Fuji X owners thread

    Some lovely images here - none of which are helping my efforts to resist chopping in my MFT gear for a Fuji X-series camera.

    Best camera strap for mirrorless

    Another recommendation for the Peak Design Leash - I bought one recently and am delighted with it.

    November Fireworks HDR

    Evening all, First post on TP for a few months - been in the wilderness photographically for quite a while. I got pretty burnt out shooting my cousin's wedding in the late summer.

    iPhone movie help please

    Try downloading it again - it may come up with a message 'you have already purchased this - do you want to continue?' or similar. That's what happens with iPhone apps you've already bought.

    First time iMac buyer!

    I have VisualHub which transforms any form of media file into any other. Also VLC player which will play any movie clips that Quicktime won't. You will LOVE your iMac - I find ours simply superb, it hasn't missed a beat since we got it in Jan 09.

    Hi Folks - looking for a bit of advise if possible! I have a commercial job next month photographing bank notes and other printed products that incorporate various security and anti-counterfieting measures. Some of the individual features are very small (2mm across) and the client wants...

    iPad from US?

    I have the opportunity to have an iPad bought back from the US this month. 32GB Wifi is about £400 at current exchange rates. I've researched a bit on importing them but all I found related to importing an iPad pre-UK release. They seemed to mention needing a US shipping address to buy an...
