The 300 has gone off to Camera Jungle for them to value. If it's less than I can accept, I won't be selling it. As much as I love the 300, the appeal of a lens I could take hiking really appeals most. I have a 6D, 70-200II and a Sigma Art 50 F/1.4 as well so do have faster lenses for the...

Thanks all. Unfortunately the value of the 300 has been dropping in recent months so I would lose a fair bit if I was to sell it now, that's been the main factor stopping me from switching

I'm the owner of a Mark 1 300 F/2.8IS that I usually use with my 1DIV. I shoot for pleasure and normally outdoor sports, aviation and wildlife. I love the 300 and have both a 1.4x and 2x teleconverter for it but I rarely use it with the 2x as the colours go a bit too dull for me. I'm...

Sorry to revive an old thread, but I came across this topic in a search and feel it's still relevant. I currently subscribe to Lightroom Mobile on Android and am fairly happy, but one thing that does annoy me is that there is no option to use custom watermarks, only text. Looking on the Adobe...

Ordered a few items over recent weeks and sent back a camera body as changed my mind. Not had any issues

I think that's very true Bob, and yes it would have 12 months warranty. However I think I am going to return it. I forgot how low res the screen is, it's almost comical compared to newer cameras. I also did some indoor moving tests last night at iso 3200 and the focussing was no better than...

Ok so going on the general consensus here I decided to order a used 1D Mk III from Camera Jungle yesterday. It has arrived today and I have checked the serial number, it happens to be one of the ones affected by the infamous autofocus recall. Info online suggest that if it had been fixed...

I own a Canon 1D Mk IV and have owned all the sports variants from original 1D onwards. My Mk IV images are not as sharp as I would like despite using some of Canon's best lenses for sports photography but maybe the Mk III set my expectations too high. I can't afford a replacement body right...

Thanks for the help. The ones on your link though aren't compact flash readers. There's one on Amazon with lists the Huawei M5 in its comparability, but the design is very very similar to the one I already have so not sure it would be any different.

I've used a USB-C compact flash card reader for a while with my Samsung S8 to download photos and edit on Lightroom Mobile. I've recently bought a Huawei M5 media pad to do the same thing. However the card doesn't show up on the Huawei. If I go to the USB options there are options to import...

I'm hopefully off to North wales from Devon at the end of the month and wondered if anyone knows of anywhere interesting I could stop along the way for some bird of prey photography or even a hide experience (something I've not done before). I'm aware of the Red Kite place at Gigrin, it's not...

Great photos! Had my first sightings of these last week on Skye. What focal length do you tend to use for these shots?

I was up there early a couple of weeks ago. Was lovely! Thanks everyone for the info

Great photos! Thanks for all the info. That map is useful. I would probably come up early from Devon

I'm not familiar with Ashton Court in Bristol, but there's supposed to be a decent deer population. Does anyone know what the access to watch the deer is like, and how close you can get? I've tried google but the Ashton Court website doesn't appear to be working! Thanks in advance
