Or if i know its going to be a photo i will want to work with alot in PS. Jpeg for pleasure, Raw for work. As for mode, depends what im doing. Studio is manual as i need...

Hi all, You may have noticed, or not, that im not around much lol, well i have a good reason. I moved jobs and now work for Blizzard in Chaville, about 3 miles East of Versaille and 15 miles west or Paris. So a little hard to get to you on a thursday :) So, can a admin change my name from ColiNuk to...

Cracking Idea John. Gives people a good reason to take even better pictures and if you get one in print, wow!

Time to get a camera me thinks!

I decided, after looking around for a extended power supply to buy one from Ebay and wait for the slow boat from Chiana to turn up with it. Could not find a shop in the UK that sold it, and wasnt too sure how to modify the MB grip, but ty for the advice people, apreciated.

Good question John, i'd like to know that answer too. I have emailed them and asked around other forums and places, but it no one has an answer. not heard a thing from Fuji.

o well, will keep looking in the 'for sale' ads

Does any one know where i can buy the S2 power expander that slots under the camera and into the CR123 slot also.

Seems like china via ebay is the only place but there has to be somewhere in the uk that sell them? isnt there??

The thing i dont like, is the rocks near the bottom of the screen that have half rock and half blue going through them,...

About time i got out and about more.

Cheers Bert, For sport, if i could get into any to shoot, the 70-200 vr would be great - but for weddings, i really need wide angle lens for group shots... Now been told the tamron lens, at £500 less is almost as good, great, now got two lenses to try, if i had enough money id buy the nikon 17-55 an...

Cheers John, I have indeed read some reviews and people say its a good lens. But i would prefer the thoughts of anyone I knew who had one more than someone i dont know on a web site, if you know what i mean. Still, only heard 1 person say anything bad about it so far on any sites i have read, so tha...

Hi all, Been a long time for me to post on here, work eh, got to be done to pay the bills :) Anyways, reason for posting is this. Thinking of getting a 18-200mm VR lens for the S5, but been told by a few wedding photographers that the better lens would be the 17-55 nikon lens, its a f2.8 where the V...
