  • Ok so if I buy one I will have to carry a Phone (needs a sim for 3G/4G) that can't make calls, or texts, but can take good photos and video (Galaxy Camera) and a phone that can make calls and...

  • It's a music festival camera, long zoom, stealth looks, great video, best SR, shame it hasn't got a tilty screen though...

  • I bought this lens new from a German retailer on Amazon UK, who I must say provided impecible service. My lens was a lemon from day one, severe BF and decentered.I sent it in to Tamron UK, rather...
  • Personally I would go with the 18-135, I have this lens and I think it's a little gem and it is little, just a smidgen bigger than the 18-55. I have found IQ to be excelent right up to about 105mm...
  • I have owned pretty much all of these lenses, with the exception of the Sigma 17-50 f/2.8 and used them on K10D, K20D and now the K-5.Initially had the Sigma 17-70 f/2.8-4.5, not a bad lens...
  • I bought the Powershot TX1, crazzy camera, there was never a TX2 and I doubt there will ever be an N1/2/3.

    Again same comment as for the Samsung Galaxy camera:
    "Shame it's not a phone as...

  • Thats a NO!

  • Commented on The Lightroom catalog article

    Not sure why LR would not find an existing cataloged image if you dragged and dropped the same image on LR again? If you perform this same action in Elements Organiser, it will not reimport the...

  • Commented on The Lightroom catalog article

    Sounds like you have a very similar setup to mine, with the exception that I do use LR as the editor, but have retained Elements Organiser as the cataloging software.

    The main reason for this is...

  • Commented on The Lightroom catalog article

    Well you could use Lightroom in a networked environment actually.

    When you install lightroom on the first workstation just create the new catalogue on a networked filesystem, one that is currently...

  • Thanks graybalanced and boramz, I will take a look at your suggestions and maybe make some changes :-)

  • Right click the file, select properties and then click the Unblock button and it will run ok.

  • No you have misunderstood about the perspective correction. I know ther is a wonderfull lens distortion panel in Lightroom, this can not be used to corect an image for architectural perspective,...

  • You can get a much better picture in the EVF by setting the brightness to manual and taking it down a click.This appears to get rid of most of the shimmering efect that you are experiencing.
  • I'd say that Lightroom is NOT a stand alone editing solution, you are always going to need another editor in order to complete the job.

    In fact I think I may just go back to Elements Editor, I...

  • The Clone/Heal tool is still unusable in Lightroom 4.3, no change there!!!
    That stupid circle, why a circle?

    Once you place the heal/clone circle eventually the copy circle appears, about 30 secs...

  • No phone = No buy...

  • Best Buy, or Bad Buy, or Best Crooks and the Goon Squad sales people, as they were known in the UK, are closing their doors on 15th Jan 2013, announced on 28th Nov 2012, after just two year of...
  • You should also be aware that high ISO noise is much worse with the 24mp sensor in the NEX-7 than it is with the 16mp sensor in the NEX-6.The 16mp sensor is used in many other Sony cameras and is...
  • Anyone had any luck connecting their NEX-6/5R to a Windows Vista PC via Wifi?All good connecting to Samsung Galaxy Ace Android phone, iPad, Playmemories Online and Playmemories Application...
