    Sony A6000 must have accessories?

    Ah thanks for that, you reminded me that I have a rocket blower that I had forgotten about. I've been looking at batteries for a while but can't seem to find any without quite a high amount of terrible reviews! Ha.

    Budget tablet for travel and light photo editing?

    Evening everyone, I go away this Sunday so I'm after a budget friendly Android tablet to take away with me, I'll be using it for general stuff and also very light photography work. I was considering the Samsung Galaxy Tab A 10.1 as it was available in a good bundle with a cover and SD card for...

    Sony A6000 must have accessories?

    Good afternoon everyone, I'm about to go traveling and have just got myself a A6000 with the kit lens and 55-210mm. Now I just want to get some bits for it to make sure it survives the experience but the market seems to be flooded with things. So are there any products that you'd personally...

    What laptop would you get for general stuff.

    I'm pretty much in the same boat as you, light photography work on it and just general day to day stuff. The one I like most spec wise is unfortunately 14" with no number pad: HP 14-dk0008na 14" Laptop includes Office 365 Personal 1-year subscription with 1TB Cloud Storage - Natural Silver Key...

    Lumix G7, a good option for traveling?

    Thanks for that. I think my main issue is my budget but I do have a few bits of gear to sell so I might just have to go from there. I went.in to Jessops yesterday and someone recommended th Canon M50 which is usually £600 with a kit lens but they currently have this offer on for £619. Canon...

    Lumix G7, a good option for traveling?

    Afternoon everyone, I'm currently looking at getting a new camera to get back in to it. At home I have a Nikon D90 with the kit lens, 50mm f/1.8, 70-300mm f/4.5-5.6 plus a flash and quite a few other bits. The main problem that I have with it is that it's all so chunky and hefty. Based on that...

    I did think that. I thought the battery had massively improved until I realised that I have had it in battery saving mode for a few days :o The Mate 20 would be the upper end of my budget really as i'm saving to move away for a while. Although, I have found the Pro for £449 but it doesn annoy...

    I'm in the process of replacing mine at the moment but trying to find a similar priced phone (£200) that has comparible spec and battery is im possible. I'm already in the process of sending back my week old Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 :(

    **** The Official Chinese Phones Thread ****

    Quoting myself there because I am sending my Note 7 back. The battery is awful on it, even with being very conservative with it I am still having to charge it multiple times ad day. My nearly 3 year old previous phone was better. Not to pick a new phone, again! I'm looking at Huawei again...

    The 128GB version was discounted cheaper but was still cheaper on Amazon so I just got it through there and with Prime got much quicker delivery which is a bonus. I got the 128gb version, screen protectors, case & a 256GB micro sd for £254 which i'm pretty happy about, most of which will be...

    **** The Official Chinese Phones Thread ****

    I'm looking for a new phone (coming from Lenovo P2) and after a little research and having a look at the last few pages, the Redmi Note 7 seems to be the one for my budget with my only real requirements being a half decent camera and battery. £209.99 for the 128gb version on Amazon. Is there...

    Huawei P 20 pro & Mate 20 Pro? Any other options?

    My mistake, the Mate 20 X does. I was actually just looking at that. I might have to go in and have a play around with one.

    Huawei P 20 pro & Mate 20 Pro? Any other options?

    So, it's finally time to upgrade my trusty Lenovo P2 (goodbye beautiful 5,100mAh). I pretty much only use my phone for listening to and watching things and taking photos/video. No games or anything. I had settled on the Huawei P20 Pro (EE £33/m, no upfront cost, 30gb, unlimited txt & min...

    Huawei p30

    At the moment, both come in at very similar prices on contract. I suppose that the one thing the P30 has going for it is newer tech. My other thought is a Samsung Galaxy S9. *Edit* Or even the OnePlus 6T :confused:

    Huawei p30

    Well, I was thinking about upgrading my Lenovo P2 to a Huawei P20 Pro but now I'm considering the Huawei P30 instead. I literally only really use my phone to take pictures/ film, watch things and Spotify. The headphone jack and expandable storage of the P30 are enticing me but it has a smaller...

    My P2 is started doing the annoying thing of turning on the bluetooth when ever I turn off location. Any ideas??

    **** The Official Lenovo P2 Thread ****

    Has anyone had to use Lenovo's warranty/repair service? The other day, when I woke up and took mine off charge it was insanely hot to pick up and now won't turn on or charge. The charging light is red and slowly pulses. The charging connection is burnt and so is the charger :(:(:(

    I've not had any issues have been using it to watch a lot of videos. On a side note, I just charged it for the first time since 11am on Saturday. I haven't used any power saving features, always had wi-fi or data on, auto screen brightness and had plenty of screen on time including watching a...

    It does. When you add a new card it asks how you want it to be used, just for media storage or to be able to use it for apps and what not.
