Ordered a Z8 from Cotswold on the 14th of this month and it has turned up this morning, excellent service from them once again.

The latest Tamron 28-75, 70-180, and a Z 85mm f/1.8S, all with similar results.

I predominantly shoot models and on a recent trip to Mallorca I had issues with the eye autofocus on my Zf nailing focus, lighting conditions were perfect, no confusing patterns, plain coloured clothing, and still the hit rate was 50/50, it was on the latest firmware too, it has driven me to...

I chose the ETRSi over the Mamiya 645 when I was shooting medium format, the ability to change film backs / polaroid backs was the main thing, I also liked the way the lenses rendered. A cracking camera!

I reckon an interesting landscape would suit my intentions.

My boss has a couple of Porsches, a 911 Dakar, and a Cayman GT4, I'm looking for a cool location to do some images in the Yorkshire area, I am based in Doncaster. Thanks in advance.

I'm taking one with me to Mallorca tomorrow, so I will see how I get on using it as a bit of fill, if no good then I will use the AD200.

Ordered a Tamron 70-180 2.8 G2 last Monday, paid a little extra for expedited shipping, arrived this morning by RMSD, can't fault the service.

Just succumbed to temptation and bought a Tamron 70-180 f2.8G from Cotswold Cameras for £749.00, I'm off to Mallorca shooting on the 25th and fancied something longer than my 85mm for beach shoots.

Handy little flashes, perfect for travel photography, I have 2 and use them along with an AD200 Pro when doing location shoots, great to have in the bag, and small enough to put in a jacket pocket.

I was fortunate enough to win a 501CM in a Photo Answers portrait competition back in 2009 I think, as I already had a 500CM, I sold it through Amateur Photographer classifieds and bought a 150mm, and an A24 back and some other bits which I still have and use occasionally when I want some...

Had a serious bought of gas recently since getting the ZF, I have also purchased a 40mm f/2 SE, a 24-70mm f/4 (now selling as not impressed), a Tamron 28-75 f/2.8 G2 and just this morning pulled the trigger on a Tamron 70-180mm f/2.8 G2, plus various 67mm filters. Hopefully the condition will...

Me too, bought one a while back as I missed shooting Nikon, and recently dropped on another mint boxed body with 11K clicks, so now I am well armed with 2 plus the ZF. :giggle:

I went to Cambodia for the 1st time in 2005, specifically to Siam Reap and, Angkor Wat, I agree the light is something else, the people friendly and accommodating, lugging the Nikon DSLR gear was not fun.. Fast forward to 2015 and another visit via Poi Pet border crossing and the wholesale...

I went from a Mac Pro trash can with 64GB Ram to a Mac Mini M4 and it is like night and day, everything runs much faster, I have an M2 Macbook Air when shooting abroad and that is also quick, but the M4 chip is a beast, I am sure you will love it.
