As regular readers will be aware, I have recently been sharing my thoughts about the Canon G7X camera recently. My previous posting on the subject was a little critical as I had found that on very long exposures, light appeared to be leaking into the camera through the lens barrel. I would now like to … Continue reading Compact Camera Image Quality

The Power of a Letter
This story has nothing much to do with Photography but I wanted to share it as it restores my faith in people. Over the weekend I was in France to visit my daughter and her partner for my Grandson’s first birthday.

New Brush in Lightroom 6
I recently published a Friday Image and mentioned that I had found a new brush tool in the Lightroom filters.

Canon G7X Field Report
Yesterday I met up with a friend for some well-deserved landscape photography. We had intended to visit Anglesey but the weather forecast was dreadful and so decided to visit Yorkshire instead. It was also a useful test of my new G7X to see how it faired in the field, especially as the Lensmate filter adapter … Continue reading Canon G7X Field Report

July has been a tough month. The Lenscraft website crashed again which prevented quite a few people from accessing information and downloads. The cause was down to my subscribing to a Content Delivery Network or CDN. These help deliver content more securely and quicker that a hosted website. My intention was to speed up the … Continue reading July 15 in Review

Yet More Website Issues
I’m sorry to announce that the Lenscraft website is down again for the 3rd time in 6 months. I decided to sign up for the CloudFlare service (through my hosting company) and almost immediately Lenscraft went offline. Not only is the Lenscraft site down I also can’t get into the admin side to try to … Continue reading Yet More Website Issues
