Been into photography for quite a few years, started really when i stopped fishing. Now im back into fishing no doubt the camera will be coming with me 
Heres a few shots, all taken with canon 500d, with various lenses
These are my other hobbies besides fishing, Urban Exploring and Banger racing
Inside a cooling tower from a power plant
A ward from a derelict mental asylum
One of my favourite cars, Ford Cortina mk3 in banger racing spec
And of course the standard waterfall shots....

Liking the shot of Virginia waters waterfall I love walking that place, especially seeing the carp sunning themselves in the afternoon summer sun by the polo club end of the lake

Yes mate I used the Eyefi mobi card for my old camera, not compatible with new camera.
And worked well.
Saves connecting leads, also whilst bankside I could upload photos from camera to phone/tablet
Enabling me to send pics, if desired. But placed camera away from harms reach etc.
Think it was a class 10 card, so no major lag,
I don't think it can transfer Raw images, but I shoot in both Raw and JPEG and then if I want to edit from Raw I could, via leads/card and pc.
Check your camera is compatible!!
They do another card where I think you can transfer Raw files, mine was the mobile version.
Very good

Thanks that's great, I wouldn't want raw files on my phone, that'd fill the memory quick not to mention the data usage.
I didn't realize there were compatability issues I'd better check that
Is there much difference between the eye fi and transcend versions?

Eyefi transcend, probably not a million miles apart.
Just load the app to a device or two, switch camera on, then open app then it will automatically load pics.
You just have to pair devices the once.

I checked a few comparisons, the transcend is probably better for me, and half the price with twice the capacity

Hi all, i am looking to get a better camera and am currently using a canon sx10is which is a compact with some good features.
I have been offered a Nikon d90 with standard lens and another zoom lens and all the bits for 300.
Im wondering if this is a good deal and any thoughts on the D90

That's a bit of a steal pimp
The quality of the pictures you can take with a dslr are on another level with the right lens. They are harder to get used to but once you master them you won't look back

Youl then have to catch a fish then
I have a canon rebel t2i, the pics are ok but nothing special, there no way near as sharp as a lot of people's trophy shots. Am I right in thinking if I get a better lense this will help? I'm using the standard supplied lense. Will the 'nifty fifty' give me that much clearer pics?
Cheers

If it's mainly for catch shots you might be better off with the 35mm unless all your venues have roomy swims. Stick your kit lens at 50mm and see how much space you need.
Edit: just seen the price for Canon 35mm
no wonder people stick with the 50

I know! Will these lens give a better/sharper pic? I used my intervalometer at the weekend. And although they are good, there not sharp when u zoom in
