If you're 'serious' and if you make use of the full Photoshop package then it's obviously the one for you, fair enough. I also 'tweak' but just don't feel the need for more than an old version of PSP...

I think the thread is still addressing the main point. What's important is to as much or as little pc work as you want and not feel pressed to lay out cash on the most super powerful software just...

Never got into home processing with film so I really like being able to put my pictures onto my laptop and play around with them. As my photos are strictly amateur I've never felt the need to pay out...

Another thought that I've been perusing is a Sigma 70-200mm f2.8 [can be picked up second hand quite easily] and 2x converter. I used this set up on a Nikon D50/D70 and it was rather good. You have a...

I'm currently using the 70-300 IS - bought to replace the very good but heavy Sigma 100-300 F4 I had before. At the moment I'm still in the process of evaluating it. It's certainly a big improvement...

I use Picasa as a downloading program - it does have some useful tweaks for editing though. Photofiltre is a good free editing system - just google it - easy to use but it has a lot more options than...

Well, being digital, it costs nothing to have a go - the camera is much more suited to non action stuff. You may not succeed in getting the sort of things you're after but you might get the odd lucky...

All the systems have pros and cons - as I never buy things like flashes and stick to a couple of lenses [bought s/hand to avoid depreciation], I've never had any qualms about switching systems. Canon...

Thanks Sassan. I did have a 70-200mm f4L when I had my 30D and agree it's a nice lens, but not quite long enough, and I had a 70-300 Sigma for my Nikons. Fortunately I bought the 100-300 at a very...

Quandary!
I have a Sigma 100-300mm f4 HSM - I actually bought the lens second hand before I got a camera to use it on. It is a very good lens and on the 40D it is a very fast focussing lens - even adding a...

But if thinking of a 170-500 be sure to try it first. I had one for two days before returning it - not so much the quality more the physical length and general awkwardness of the lens. My own current...

Yes but it's the ability of cameras to take things more easily and quickly as you go up the range, that can make all the difference. Why only today I managed at least 30 rubbish low light shots of...
