    OFFICIAL I HAVE A NEW (FILM RELATED) TOY THREAD!!

    Thanks Cuchulainn, sounds about right now I’ve tried it, pretty good but not the fastest, that’s fine for me though, quality over speed anytime.

    Picked up a Primefilm 7250u on my travels for scanning negs. Anyone used one?

    What was your most significant camera? Why?

    Probably my first SLR in the 80s, a Zenit B, being all manual and pretty basic meant you couldn’t leave any decisions up to the camera, excellent for learning. Also weighed a tonne so good for fitness :)

    Hi, can I ask what kind of issues you had with the Neewer batteries in your D500? Thanks

    Nikon 16-80 f2.8/4 or Sigma 17-50 f2.8

    Thanks, both very helpful and backing up my thoughts that the Nikon is the one to go for. Cheers.

    Nikon 16-80 f2.8/4 or Sigma 17-50 f2.8

    Having bought Nick's D500 on here I'm wanting to upgrade my main walkabout zoom lens soon, currently using a Nikon 16-85 f3.5/5.6 VR. Has anyone compared the Nikon 16-80 f2.8/4 ED VR with the Sigma 17-50 f2.8 OS EX DC HSM ? The Sigma is tempting due to the constant 2.8 aperture and lower price...

    Anyone used E-infinity ?

    Thanks everyone, that's giving me confidence to order from them.

    Anyone used E-infinity ?

    Has anyone bought from e-infinity? Price for a D500 seems very good but I don't know the company at all. Hong Kong HQ but with UK warehouse it seems. https://www.e-infin.com/uk/item/2954/nikon_d500_digital_slr_camera_body_(kit_box)

    Back button focusing?

    I use it for sport etc but not otherwise. Takes a bit of getting used to but well worth persevering with it.
