Hi, thanks for all your help. I formatted the CF card in the camera and tried to replicate how I was taking photos at the beach. It seems to be fine now.:)

Hi. I was at the beach the other day and my camera went a bit funny. I had set it to JPEG L + RAW and was taking pictures quite quickly one after another. When I went to review my images It said '...

Exellent, well done :)

Thanks for all your help, I got the Canon 400D! I decided to spend the extra because I thought it was more than worth the difference of about £40 higher than the 350D. I got a new one because of some...

Hi. I've posted some of my pics in the gallery forum

The post is called: 'Macro pics with 400d/XTi. Comments please'

Any comments would be most apreciated and thank you for all your help. :)

These are the results when I used my 400d with it's kit lens ( 18-55) ( first 2 photos) and my Tamron 70-300mm Macro 1:2 ( 3rd Photo) for some macro pics. I decided to see how good the kit lens was...

Thanks, I've finally got it.

Thanks, I have photoshop to resize them. I'll post some I took today, tomorrow hopefully.:)

Thanks :) . Canon says their EF 100mm f/2.8 Macro USM lens is 1:2.8

does that mean it is 1:1( lifesize) with a 2.8 max aperture or, that it is worse than 1:2 ( half life-size)?

Sorry, I'm a bit confused on how I'd post them on here. Do the images have to be uploaded to the internet first so you can give an url when creating a post?

Thanks for those tips, I'll give it a go.

Have a look at the thread I started when I was trying to decide on a d-slr: 'Which Beginner D-SLR?'. It helped me.

I have just got a 400d for xmas and am very pleased with it. My choices were the 0lympus e-500, the canon eos 350d/400d the Nikon D50 and the pentax 100d, although the 400d was the most expensive, I...

I've just got a 400d for xmas and am very pleased with it. I'm very interested in macro photography but I can't get half as good results as your photos above ( which are great) from my kit lens or my...

I'm confused. I thought 2:1 was better than 1:1 ( life size) and 1:1 is better than 1:2 ( half life size) which is what my tamron is . Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Thanks. Do you know what the Canon EF 50mm Macro lens is like?

I too have just purchased the XTi with the 18-55mm lens. I also got a Tamron AF70-300mm F/4-5.6 LD MACRO 1:2 for only £99.99 on special offer. I dont think the 15mm between the two lenses will be...

Hi there. I've recently purchased a Canon EOS 400D with a Canon EF-S 18-55mm lens and a Tamron AF 70-300mm F/4-5.6 LD Macro 1:2.

My first question: Is there any difference between the

Tamron...

Hi. I was looking at the olympus E-500, the canon xt, the nikon d50 and the pentax 100d.

After a lot of thinking and looking around on the web at reviews, specs, prices etc. I finally decided on...

Hi there, I aswell am deciding on a low budget slr. I have considered the olympus e-500, the nikon d50, the pentax k100d and the canon 350d/xt.

After a lot of research and advice from the people...

Thanks, that was really helpful, I'm edging towards the Canon. :)
