    • Information
      Forum rules and nettiquette, along with other items of general interest.

      Important information about this forum is contained here, and members MUST familiarise themselves with the posts here, as well as what is contained within the FAQ.

      Please do not complain if you ask a question regarding a topic covered here or in the FAQ and in response you get a rather brusque, obtuse or sarcastic response. We get sick and tired of answering the same questions, day in, day out, when the answers are clearly published, in plain view, and all that is required is for you to open your eyes and read them!

      Had a good experience with a trader? Please share that with us. While primarily we're interested in such things as on-line trading and off-shore purchases, anything good is more than welcome.

    • Image Reviews and Critiques
      Got a thin skin? Then look elsewhere. Post a link to an image that you've made, and invite others to offer their critiques. Honesty is encouraged, but please be positive in your constructive criticism. Flaming and just plain nastiness will not be tolerated. Please note that this is not an area for you to showcase your images, nor is this a place for you to show-off where you have been. This is an area for you to post images so that you may share with us a technique that you have mastered, or are trying to master. Typically, no more than about four images should be posted in any one post or thread, and the maximum size of any side of any image should not exceed 950 px.

    • Picture of the Week
      Each week, one of the moderators or administrators selects an image that, for whatever reason, catches their eye. Please feel free to add your comments here. Vigorous discussion of the images and techniques is welcome and encouraged. Criticism of any mod for their choice is not. Please note that this is "Picture of the Week"; do not confuse that with "best picture of the week", which is a concept of which we have no understanding.

    • Fifty Two Frames
      All members are encouraged to go about their business each week. With their cameras. And shoot whatever they wish. Please post your favourite (or best) work from each week within the weekly thread that will be started in this section by Fozzie.

      The purpose here is twofold.

      1: We want you all to be be out there, shooting whatever you wish.

      2: We want to create a weekly portfolio of the variety of images and activities that you all enjoy and participate in every day, of every week, of every year.

    • First Image
      With everyone getting new bodies, I think that separate section for you to proudly display your first image from your new acquisition is in order.

      This applies to brand new bodies, as well as bodies that are simply newly acquired by you.

    • Travel
      Travel forms an important part of photography. Or maybe it's photography that forms an important part of travel? Regardless, travel and photography go together like a hand in a glove. While this section lives within the images section of the forum, it is acceptable - and you are encouraged - to post your travel experiences and tips here as well.

      Unless they get too big for themselves, this is where you can talk about the "other" brands of DSLR's: Konica Minolta / Sony, Pentax / Samsung, Olympus, Horseman, etc.

    • Absolute Beginners Questions
      Newer members often state that they think their question is too basic, or stupid, or whatever, to be posted. Nothing could be further further from the truth in any section at DSLRUsers.com, but especially here. Don't feel intimidated. The only stupid question is the one that remains unasked. We were all beginners at one stage, and even the most experienced amongst us will admit to learning new stuff on a daily basis. Ask away! Please also refer to the forum rules and the portal page

    • Personal Photographic Journeys
      What is your personal photographic journey? In a photographic sense, how did you start, and with what equipment? How have you progressed, and where are you, and your photographic skillset, placed today?

      This is a place where members may share their personal photographic journey. Some of our normal posting rules are suspended within this section. To illustrate you story, for instance, you may post more than the normal 4 or so images. In fact, we actively encourage you to share with us images that illustrate how your photography has changed since you started. So readers with slower connections please be warned that postings made within this section may be - will be - larger than the norm.

    • Gallery Updates
      This section is for members who wish to post notifications of updates to their personal galleries. Please note that as the initial you may <b>only</b> include a link to your gallery - you may not, and you must not, include any images. That is where the fun begins: other members may then click on your link, and if they particularly like an image from your gallery, then <b>they</b> may post the link to your image, from your gallery, along with reasons as to why they like the image. <i>Image critiquing is NOT permitted in this section, and images posted within this section are not considered for PotW. Posts made in this section will be excluded from the "Recent Posts" section on the front page, which means that you will need to actively seek posts here. This section will also prune itself, with stale topics being removed 14 days after the most recent post being made.<i>

    • Bargains
      Spot something hot in your travels, but it's not something that you personally need or want (or can afford). Share it with the rest of us here. Posting in this section is restricted to members with more than 50 posts. <b>Please refer to the FAQ for details of "Special Access"</b>.
      Please keep in mind that any recommendations of suppliers made by members of this community must be taken as personal views, not the views of the management of this forum. As a community, we have an arrangement with HK Supplies for the supply of product at preferrential pricing, but any transactions are conducted directly with HK Supplies. Obviously, we have no issues with recommending this method of purchase. However, any other recomendations within the forum's content should be treated as personal experience, and people should also take account of how recent those experiences may have been.

    • For Sale
      Got some surplus gear? Replaced your 70-300G with a shiny new 70-200VR but you still need $50 to balance the budget? This is where your post goes.Please note that if you do not have posting access here, that is a deliberate action on the part of the admins here. DO NOT make a "For Sale" type of post anywhere else on this forum; we tend to view that sort of trangression very seriously.

      Got a job opportunity? Need an assistant? Just need some help for an ad-hoc task that needs to be finished? Members may post details of such opportunities here. I would caution against posting too much personal contact info: follow-ups and important details may be passed across using PM, but general information should be posted in your thread.
