The sooner you get using it the quicker you will master it Pal.. :wink::D

Thanks for the heads up.

Thanks for the location, Robert. The moors always have that special air about them, and when you walk over their footpaths, it’s possible that you’ll have the place all to yourself, talk about being peaceful, it’s brilliant!We have low flying jets over my part of the world, too. I have to...

Anyone downloaded any of the software for creating Photo books. I have looked at the Blurb one which Will Ting recommended and Tescos one, but i wondered if anyone had tried any others and with what results? The Tesco one is very poor in my opinion and the Blurb one is American. Aldi do one...

Hi Nathan Click User C.P. ,top left hand corner, In the Control Panel 2nd box down is pics and albums. It says Add Album , give it a name ie, Sept 09 click submit. then upload, It only uploads 3 at a time ,so i open 3/4 tabs, once you have started the 1st 1 keep moving along your tabs till you...

Many thanks Lollipop It really Is appreciated

Hi Dave I have found a way round the Processing time when shooting Long Exposures. The noise reduction Is turned on for the same time duration as the shutter was open. If you disable the noise reduction in camera,then you can take the Photo afterwards as normal,but obviously you would have to...

Woo, they look just magical!

Good work Steve, I can recommend them to anybody if you wish to improve your post production robert

Hi Dave Yes Nothing doing here thick cloud all night,

Aaah! Back to the good old days of twiddling and fiddling. Lovely camera, Dave. During the early 1990s I frequently used an old bellows Ensign Selfix 8 images on 120 film. Brilliant! It would have been lovely to see some results from your little masterpiece.

When taking photos for detail, always use the highest resolution possible. Then, when you come to work with a photo editor, save your originals as .png files. This way, you don't get quite the same picture loss as when saving as .jpgs, although you do have to remember that in saving png files,...

Thanks Dave, But I think I'll stick with Capture 1. For some reason,I just never could get my head around DPP./|\ Shea

Not worth much now I'm afraid.......same with most film SLRs. Practica was/is a Russian company, maybe made in E Germany. They were much cheaper in their day than Canons, Nikons, Pentaxes. I went to art college in the 70s and had the use of one......I guess the college had a stock of...

Heres something that will suprise you. What do you think the following two pictures are. As I say you may well be suprised robert

Not really Woo...you'd be surprised. Its mostly just getting the right location, 100iso and bulb (as you have already done) then just open and close shutter..job done. Car trail shots are easy, find suitable location and your done, the other two of mine involve water and reflections, but not...

Hi Penny Thank you much appreciated,

Try a www search for the camera manual. Its suprising what manuals are available out there.. robert

hi woo thanks so thats what the scn button is for was wondering what it was, the other bits are complicating, iff i just press the scn the camera comes on does this mean when i take a shot the pic i take comes up panoramic.

I use Microsoft Office Picture Manager.Hope you are sorted now :D
