  • When I smashed the LCD on my A580 I paid several hundreds of dollars for Sony to fix it. I found some weeks later - to my horror - that I could have purchased one of ebay for under $40. Check ebay,...

    Unless I am missing something (I often do lol) It should be easy to know who is voting for what. You say there is a randomized number representing each voter. No voter can vote on their own photo....

  • Hi!Had a fun day out yesterday, putting the RX100 through its paces. My first real day alone with the new camera to experiment. Had a few problems.Mainly I could not see the screen properly, but...
  • Oops! I completely forgot I had that option.
  • How do you manage with the bright sun on the LCD? I had a day out in Melbourne yesterday (Shots to come soon) and found it almost impossible to see it.... :o(
