I do all my editing on the go from my phone. Not time to be messing about with a laptop back at the car! The battery life I'm referring too is my phone. A noticeable difference over the past week. The battery life on the camera actually seems fair!

Hi all, Recently took the jump to mirrorless and settled on the R5. One of the benefits was the built in wifi, which is future proofed some what compared to the Flashair card I used with my rather ancient 1D MkIV! However, I'm having awful issues - to the point where I'm tempted just to put...

Ordered - cheers! I don't really use eBay so didn't even give it a thought.

ah thanks for that! Looks like he managed to get a bulk load. Very pricey compared to previous years though! I’m still keen to know what’s going on though if anyone else knows :)?

I’ve been using WiFi SD cards for a few years now, first the EyeFi system and more recently Toshiba FlashAir. However, I now need a third SD card and don’t seem to be able to source a W-04 FlashAir for love nor money! Have they stopped producing these now, or is it a COVID supply issue? What...

Yep tried drying it out. Don't have a remote shutter for it unfortunately, but from what everyone has been saying it could be a Main PCB issue. As for what I'm going to do with it... nothing I can do. I've spoken to Canon, Fixation, Euro Hi Tech, H. Lehmann and Thomas Cameras and they all say...

Hi folks just to update you... I've spoken to at least 4 different companies now we are all basically saying it's dead, nothing can be done. So a bit of a word of warning for any MkIII owners out there... if it goes wrong that's the end of the road. I'm absolutely gutted as everything is...

Many thanks! Will drop him an email and see if there is any hope.

Any contact details for this Don Clark? Does he run a repair outfit?

Good afternoon all! Unfortunately, both my Canon 1D MkIV and Canon 1D Mk III have let me down. Both have suffered breakdown brought on by - I assume - being out in the rain at a job last night. The MkIV has already been posted off to Canon for what is expected to be a £400+ repair (none of the...

There was a nice setting sun to the left of the photo, hence that shine on the trees.

This was taken back in September when the British Army came to the Isle of Wight for an exercise. I was lucky enough to be invited to Jersey Camp for a press briefing and we were treated to a US Air Force Osprey coming in to land, resulting in this cracking shot.

I was very lucky to be photographing The Jacksons on Sunday at Bestival 2015 and captured this great shot. The shot itself was enough to satisfy me, but then on Monday the one and only Jermaine Jackson retweeted the photograph! Cherry on the top.

But we all love it :P Part and parcel of rally photography... there is always something not quite right xD

The first time I have been to a rally in two years and the first motorsport photography I have done in roughly the same amount of time! I started off with motorsport photography but have recently become focused on press work... but it was great to be back out in the forest and capturing the...
