A friend bought a Hong Kong camera some while ago, and the Menu was all in Chinese. A bit of a puzzle but I eventually worked out how to change it to English. I think I searched for an online ...

John, could you give us all an update when your camera arrives and, particularly, as to if it has an English Menu amongst the options. Cheers, Phil

Here in UK a friend of a friend's Panamoz -bought Nikon developed a problem with just a couple of months remaining of the 3 years Panamoz Warranty. Nikon UK repaired it without question and Panamoz ...

Remove the battery for a couple of minutes, replace and see if the problem persists. If it's cleared then do a factory reset. If this doesn't work it maybe a trip to the repair centre.

Number 1 is camera shake - definitely. Easy to do at 1/125 second exposure time.

I have to say that, like the 14-24mm, the 18-35 G also makes me smile when I see the images it produces. It's light as a feather to boot. So good that I sold my 20mm f1.8 G lens, which aside from ...

As someone once said the 14-24 is the best lens I hardly ever use, but when I do it makes me smile. I'll second that. It might as well be a 14-18mm lens for me, for that's where I use it. Hardly ...

Intermittant battery connection, almost certainly. Clean battery contacts and camera contacts with some electrical contact cleaner - a SMALL amount applied via a q-tip, small stiff brush or similar - ...

I do know how you feel. It would have been polite to have asked your permission to print the photograph and I'm sure you would have said yes- but you weren't asked and it rankles somehow. This is ...

Re. the blacking out of darkrooms - the newspaper where I worked had a sliding door access to the film processing room. The room itself was quite small. The blackout was far from completely light ...

PS Use an old fogged/outdated film to practice on with your eyes closed but beware - there's the story of someone who loaded films for devving with his or her eyes shut only to discover they'd ...

I too have loaded many hundreds (thousands?) of 120/220 films onto Paterson spirals. Just very occasionally I'd get an "awkward" film that didn't want to do the right thing but keep calm ...

Maybe, but we are talking about Suzukis - that's a Honda.

I used to go to the local dealership, Crooks-Suzuki in Barrow in Furness and watch them do pre-delivery inspections in the street on fine days, as they were selling so many of them they couldn't ...

Me as a trainee press photographer aged 16 in 1970 complete with Rolleiflex pictured outside the newspaper's printing paper store. The motor cycle is a Suzuki Rebel 350 that I used to go to jobs ...

I think I can beat your story. I sold my D700 for £1100/ $1200 with 6,000 clicks - so you can tell how long ago that was. It was my pro back-up for my D3 and since I had acquired a new D3S I ...

Nice pics!  Hope you'll forgive me but I just had to try and do something with the colour balance/ skin tone on number one.

In the days of film when I started my career Nikon was the only game in town used by pro's. The Nikon F was King. I can honestly say I never saw Canon's equivalent (also called an F model I think) ...

This technique used to be called "subtractive lighting" when I started in the 80s. Lastolite and others made black pop up light absorbers in various shapes. Fine if you've got assistants and ages...
