Also make sure that app passwords are done as this really threw me when it was first introduced

True, also I find Gmail now needs 2 step authentication for a lot of email clients, make sure 2 step is activated in your Gmail account along with random password generation from Gmail itself, this won't change your actual log in details of the Gmail account it's just a secure password for the...

For anyone still using Windows 7 I have to ask why? I used to be an avid user of Windows 7 and the earlier incarnations of Windows and as a qualified PC Tech I will say that putting my head in the sand over Windows 10 and 11 was a mistake, I was missing out big time, factually for me and my...

Thanks guys, I went for that K&F Tripod looks exactly what I want :cool:

I hope this is OK to ask about a tripod, I used to own a Velbon Sherpa 200R Tripod and the V4 Boom Arm but alas they are no longer available this cost me about £100 in 2016 so can anyone recommend something similar Tripod and Boom arm for the same sort of price. Thank you very much peeps. :whistle:

Will do indeed. (y)

Corona fizzy pop, the crisps I used to have as a kid but were tubes and jeez I forgot the name of them, tomatoes that tasted like tomatoes.

I bought this one thank you so much guys for all of the information :cool:

I bought one of these solar powered so no changing or charging batteries, quality image also.

Thank you for all of the replies I think I will go for this one, what do you guys think?

OK which one is best as in terms of quality pictures ect the 17-40mm L F4 or the Canon EF-S 15-85mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM Lens, I think the 15-85 as it's newer and has more focal range for me. It's a minefield :eek: Thanks for the help it is appreciated, oh and if anyone has a link for the Canon...

Has anyone got a link for the 17-40mm L F4 lens (y)

OK I shall buy the lens I need and not worry about resale, but EF-S would be better as they are for crop sensor cameras, but if I buy an EF lens I would have to multiply the shortest focal length by 1.6 so a 17mm would be a 27mm :oops: :$
