Good news is that Im pretty sure Ive nailed Curve,
Bad news is my PC says no room to download the 750+ images from Silverstone Motogp TODAY - Im back tomo as well !!!!!
Anyone got a 6 tb ext hard drive for sale ?

Ouch, glad it`s not too bad but on a bright side Thursdays theme could be Plastered :D
 
new 1TB hdd ordered, should be here by Tuesday hopefully.

Really frustrating as all my cards are now full of Motogp and I cant even lift the camera up as Ive run out of cards and HDD space....

Even more so as its Bank Holiday Monday......

FML.....

Ouch, sounds like a painful day, Chris, but you did brilliantly to get to the bottom and out again with a broken foot, and smiling too! :clap:

I wish... I am going through my back catalogue slowly deleting a load of not used or needed stuff, but in a similar position, thinking of swapping out my internal HDD to SSD for 'current' photos and getting another 2 or 4 TB external drive for on site back-up :thinking:

Thanks Andrea, with hindsight it probably wasn't the best idea but at the time I just thought I'd sprained it.

Well as of tomorrow I will be going all Fuji, Jessops have my new X-T2 & XF 18-55mm in for me to pick up at lunch time :banana::banana::beer::fuji::woot:

Exciting times, Dave! You've been posting some impressive images with the new kit. Do you have any regrets at all about switching from a DSLR system? What's the best thing about the new system?

PS: To keep it on topic, I'm up-to-date with themes and commenting for the first time in ages and ready for Thursday :woot:

Thanks Andrea, the main thing was weight from the Canon gear kept getting me to have a steroid injection in my shoulder as have arthritis, since using the X-T20 and XC 50-230mm it has been a dream as not one bit of pain at all, even though it does come in on winter sometimes. The IQ and Fuji colours are just great for me, plus it really is a joy to walk round with the X-T20 hanging off my neck, when we went to the airshow, I thought the XC50-230mm would be too short, but as I always crop once I saw some of the shots I thought, that`s good, plus battery life was great, as I took 1,650 Raf/Jpegs and still had battery to look through them.

Not one regret at all :)

Haha, good to hear! I've just begun to find the weight of a bag with body and 2/3 lenses to be an issue sometimes. I could probably change some of my heavier lenses as I don't do much action stuff any more, and I've considered changing to a smaller and lighter DX set-up from my current full-frame kit, but having seen you going through the decision process to mirrorless it's got me wondering if that might be a better move in the medium-long term. I'm in England in a couple of weeks so will try to handle some of the Fuji stuff to get a better idea of the size and weight.

Glad you're enjoying the new gear, and not finding it holding you back at all. That spider photo you posted on Flickr this evening was stunning in it's detail and colours (y)
