I own the Sigma 18-50 f2.8 Contemporary for my Sony A6600 and it is a great little lens. Canon make nothing like this for my R7 which loves tele zoom L glass. When I go out on shoots I have to take my A6600 with the 18-50 f2.8, and my R7 with a big lens on because I have no short focal length...

Oh dear, that is not good ! !

I have really thought about buying PB's ! How much does one have to invest to say £20 per month ( average over a year ) ?

Sound advice.... I have actually sold prints, A4, A3, A2 all framed and all printed by my local printer store. Most of the staff are pretty good with advice. Only one has been naïve with the printing and nearly messed up the printing. Though I do wonder I would have to go through all the...

Well this is a difficult decision whether to get a printer or just bit the bullet every time I sell an image ! The A4 prints are OK to pay for at £8.00 each from my local printing store, However the A3 & A2 are just under £30 each on Hahnemuhle Baryta fine art paper. I am hoping to have another...

what happens after a year, does LR just stop working or do you not get any more updates ! ?

Thanks for the link. budget wise apx £150-£200 for the printer. NB. I have no problem with buying used !

Hi All, some very valid points to consider, and I have thought about the out lay for a printer, ink, decent paper, and of course a nice dry, warm room to print in at home. In the near future I am going to set up an etsy account to sell A4 prints. My only concern is the cost of A4 print from...

Hello, I would like to start printing A4 or possibly up to A3 though this is not a deal breaker. At present I use a local printing store in town for Fine Art A4 prints of my images that I have sold. They charge apx £8 per print, and I know I can get A4 prints cheaper online, however most of...

Any one been to the Big Cat Sanctuary in Kent ?

I believe there is a TV series on behind the scenes at Zoo, and the zoo in question is Chester. I am the wrong end of the country to pop along to Chester Zoo. If I am ever in the area I will make a day trip to Chester Zoo for sure.

I watched a YouTube video were a chap had a rubber cone shaped lens hood he used to press against the glass ! I might just get one,.. lol

yep,.. I hope to restart this thread as I was actually thinking of asking the same question recently in a new thread till I found this ! I am hopefully off to Paradise Zoo in Hertfordshire in April 2024. Colchester Zoo is my local and I will go this Saturday. What is not good for me are the...

I have been to Marwell, pretty good access as the zoo is spaced out over a wide area.
