    Canon 6D & Lenses > Sony A7R II - Upgrading?

    Please forgive me if this has been discussed and feel free to direct me to a relevant post. My search only brought up a huge thread with over 400 pages. I currently have a Canon 6D, 70-200 F4 IS and 16-35mm F4 IS. I do landscape photography. I am thinking about switching my body to the Sony...

    Wide Angle Lenses - whats the score ?

    I thought the same regarding the Tamron. I was very keen for one but I need the ability to use filters so i just took delivery of the Canon 16-35mm F4 instead- hopefully its as good as i hear!

    Tamron SP 15-30mm F/2.8

    Saw this Lens is due for release soon. Does anyone know the expected release date and the retail price? I need a wide angle lens for FF and until this point have been set of the Canon 16-35mm F4 but this Tamron one sounds very interesting based the reviews I've read. I would also be...

    Somebody has suggested File > Open catalogue... And restore from a backup which I did regularly but how do I select the most recent backup?

    Lightroom catalogue help please

    Hi guys any Lightroom experts amongst you ? I use an external hard drive to store my photos. Anyway I had some folders issues because Lightroom wouldn't recognise the folders - to rectify this I synchronised my catalogues. But what it's done is effectively removed all the editing I ever did on...

    The Art to Dreamy Photos - Post Processing

    Ive recently taken a huge liking to very dreamy looking photos, soft light and colours. I currently use Lightroom and just wondering does anyone have any good tips to process this sort of imagery? I thought it may be presets such as in colour eFex Pro. I have been experimenting with the...
