    Great tits have disappeared

    Hi, for the last few weeks we have had great tits nesting in our garden, and in the last week, both of them have been busy coming back and forth with food so we guessed that the eggs had hatched. But in the last couple of days we haven't seen them at all, I was out all day Thursday and since...

    Case for fz150

    Does anyone know of a wrap around style case for the fz150, the type where you can still hold the camera by its strap and the case stays on the camera, I guess something like the leather type ones you get on the fuji x100's etc. I saw someone had this type of case for their canon sx40 once, (not...

    Flash for fz150

    Hi, just wondered if anyone knows of a good flash for fz150, preferably something that will work ttl rather than having to have the camera on manual. Is it just the panasonic ones that will work automatically or are there any metz flashes? thanks in advance, jacqui.

    Standing out in the garden today watching the birds and a sparrowhawk swooped across above my head and dived into the bush just below the bird feeders, didn't catch anything. Then came round again and landed in next doors garden. I managed to get a couple of bad photos of its head as it was...

    encourage long tailed tits

    Hi, up until now I have only seen blue tits, great tits, robins and sparrows (lots of sparrows) in our garden. But a little while ago I noticed a long tailed tit sitting on the branch of our tree. It only stayed there for a few seconds (luckily I happened to have my camera in my hand, and got a...

    Just bought a k200d

    Hi, after having a canon sx40 for a while and although it produced great photos, autofocus was really slow, and whilst my daughter was clicking away with her dslr, I was missing them all, while my camera found focus, I decided it was back to a dslr and found a nice k200d and a tamron 70-300mm...

    fuji s100fs

    Hi, just bought a fuji s100fs, (used, but in great condition) and so far very pleased. Does anyone know of a teleconverter suitable for this camera, I have read good things about the raynox 2020 but they are quite pricey. Would need to look for a used one I think. Anyone have any experience with...

    changed camera again!

    Hi, I recently posted to tell you about the samsung gx10 that I had bought, unfortunately that has been returned as when I had a chance to play with it, I was not happy at all.

    Hi everyone, I have just managed to get a used e-520 to get me back to a dslr, very pleased with it so far, only got the 40-150mm lens for it, funds are pretty tight at the moment. I love photographing birds and wildlife, so I am hoping to gradually add to my lenses. I understand that it's...
