Re: Steel Plate

Ah, Thank you Eric. I didn't give ebay a thought for something like that. I will look into it. Is Igor busy developing a PTE update again? I have not been on that forum for quite some time. Glenys Hi Glenys Yes I'm afraid so, I think I will have to reach 150 before I catch up with all the new featu...

Re: Panasonic FZ150

Nice bit of AV Eric.. It is certainly difficult to find a new angle of photography for the Lowry area. I was interested to see the video quality of the Bridge unit. Very impressive it was. Shame you didnt include some early evening shots, which is when I feel the Quays area really comes alive. Like...

Re: Panasonic FZ150

Cant say I have Eric...Maybe you could try a little review. When you get aquainted with it. Hi Stuart I've now had the camera a couple of months shot around 1000 pictures & 30 video clips. IMO the results are superb when the camera is set on it's "Intellegent Auto" mode. So much so I ...

Re: Camera Retailer Jacobs Goes Into Administration

Well if I am not careful it looks like I will not be able to buy a new camera... I have a couple in mind but am not 100% sure yet which one to go for, I need to compare and be able to talk to someone about what I need and the right camera for my own specifications. How can you do that on the net! A...

Re: How many ...... ?

My last big shoot was Salford Quays early May, arrived Monday, left Wednesday so we had approx 2 full days & one evening. I shot around 150, my wife about 100, around 75% were acceptable for AV use which is our main focus (no pun intended). IMO the weather is the big factor in getting good accep...

Re: Computer Monitor

Hi Janice What a question, I think I could write a book on monitors & their benefits & failings. The first thing to consider is aspect ratio, Is your LT a modern widescreen model? If it is the aspect ratio will be 16:9 or unusually 16:10, if it is an older model it could be 4:3 or 5:4. If yo...
