Did you updated it to use the camera raw 8.3 plugin

I just updated and it worked. Thanks a lot

Mines arrived yesterday!

My attempt at trying to get a bird in flight - namely a heron, at Pennington Flash near Wigan:

how do you update?

Use the Adobe Update Manager programme.

Paul.

I opened program, clicked on help and in the drop down menu, clicked on updates.

Paul that is a great heron! I've only seen one in my area, at the cemetery pond. I approached too quickly and even before getting the camera up he was out of there.
Thought of you today Paul. Hauled in a bunch of pin oak logs that will soon have many holes drilled into the ends for the mason bees. Despite the weather and continually frozen ground the bug hotel progresses

Since PSE 12 was mentioned I just thought I'd ask if anyone had updated from 11, and whether it's better or not? Thanks

Cheers Robert - I didn't have the right mode on the camera either, so it was purely hit and miss.

The hotel sounds like it's coming along nicely. Can't wait to see it when it's finished m8.


Paul.

Still low light, but managed to get a decent-ish lady bully.

My 70D is on it's way should have it Friday. I'll have the 18-135 and the shorty forty to get acquainted with for the next year or so and then I'll move into some different lenses.

Anything tips or tricks for this new owner you folks would like to share would be greatly appreciated.

Nice bully shots Paul

I can see why... great shot. Did you have to dial in the lens with MFA or does it shoot like that stock?

Thanks.
