Some good photos here. Regarding the couple of posts showing photos taken on 'manual', I would make two comments. Using manual setting still requires either using the camera's in-built metering or an external light meter. My guess is the in-built. Personally I tend to use aperture or shutter priority as usually I know which I want to fix for a specific shot. Then secondly was the focus mode manual or auto for these manual shots?

depends on the shot, small birds in flight would be near impossible to focus manually. a light meter is great for non action shots as you can get the f stop correct so the exposure is spot on, but again theres no time with action shots, so you have to go with the built in meter.

Omanra has a quality camera something 700 it's called think cannon absolute quality shots . The lenses are a price themselves. ... iv asked santa for one or just like it

The NIKON D700 is a decent camera albeit almost 9 years old technology

There are some cracking cameras out there now, if I lost this one tomorrow I would be replacing it with the same...mainly as I know the it and how to get the best out of it

Went into jessops today and had a chat, they recommended either the Nikon d3200 or the canon 1200 d as a good entry level dslr. I've been looking at the Nikon d3300 on internet and looked on YouTube too, it seems to have good write ups from what I've read and the price seems sensible to me too.

What about the new breed of compact cameras...

Some are far far better than a lot of dslr cameras.

 

Have a look at the Sony rx series.

Yes they are expensive, but do everything a budget dslr will do..

And can be carried in a shirt pocket.
