because I see + & - for both. I know some of you have a much better eye

I am looking to purchase a tripod and head.  I have looked at a bunch of

I'm shooting with the Pentax DL.  My question
is to everyone about the standard contrast and
saturation settings in the camera.
How would it effected my picture taken at 1/250

A while ago (20 years?) when I had a Olympus OM-1 I had a great, round,
brown nylon braided strap with no brand naming on it at all. It was either
an Olympus or a Nikon product.
I now have a Canon 5D and I dislike both the "Canon Digital" markings, the

I've got a nice selection of great Konica Autoreflex Hexanon lenses, eg the
great 85-1.8 (a great portrait lens, can be compared to absolutely anything

I've got one camera and three lenses: Nikon D70s, Nikkor 18-70mm f/3.5-4.5,

I have been looking at digital cameras and have narrowed it down to 3.
I want to upgrade to a more "professional" camera. It is so hard to
decide! I would like something that I could take great pictures of my
grandchildren,

Have been a photographer for almost 40 years. Time has come to put away
my Canon FD equipment (will never put away my Leicas) and get a digital
SLR. So along comes the Nikon D200, sounds great, a few teething
problems but all in all the right package at the right price. But can

I've recently purchased a 350D specifically to take Jewellery photography. I
have a Canon EFS 60mm Macro lens and also a light tent.
I've been experimenting taking photo's but I noticed that on opening up the
aperture to 32f and at 8"the captured image recorded what looked like a ...

Was invited a couple of weeks ago to photo my nephew at his rugby club.  All
arranged for tomorrow.  Cancelled cos someone turned up the week before with
a camera and the usual 'paedophile with camera' hysteria kicked in.  They're
