Anybody know any decent trusted firmware for Nikon cameras?
My mates got magic lantern on his Canon and it's absoloutey amazing!
Just annoying it isn't compatible with Nikon.
The intervalometer feature is probably the most useful one and I know I could just buy an external one but there were so many other cool features on there all together they really make a difference. Just wondering if anything similar is about for Nikon ?
Had a quick look about but a lot of it looks a bit dodgy to me... don't want to muck up my camera!!!

well funnily enough that groundbait was meant for the cats i was targeting.... the ones in the lake though not on the land
but yeah he didn't even used to feed them at all at first they jut lived off the rats they caught. anglers give them bits of food too, they really loved the squid i gave them! he just leaves a bowl of food out every other day and they seem to get on fine.
very good idea and as you mention a little price to pay in terms of putting up with the noise to potentially saving anglers lives. more fishery owners should definitely look into this i reckon
edit: not completely sure but sounds like you may have a point about the otters too!

on one of the local waters near me the owner of a fishery had a problem with rodents (probably his own fault as he never seems to empty the bins on site) and bought two cats. they have got rid of all the rats and mice they used to have and have bred like crazy. there is about 9 of them now living wild around the lake.
when he mentioned it to me i didnt think much of it but after reading this i think it seems a very good idea indeed!
the only problem is when you set your bivvy up in the swim with the bush they live/sleep in! kept me up all night making all kinds of funny noises... my mate said he even saw one go in my bivvy and eat my grounbait out of the bucket lol.
anyway, as already said i think people should take things a bit more serious about this. i know im not putting my hands in the lake with cuts etc. from now on!
