=Matt 'Photog' Peters;9861027]What ever is easiest tbh.. It has windows 7 on now and isnt freezing up, but it is playing silly buggers when trying to install my wireless dongle, so going to blat it and start from scratch!!

To get the format option, you need to boot from the Windows CD, not from within Windows.

Ok, so in startup change the boot option to boot from the cd and then it should work?!

I dunno, but I laughed when I moused over the link and saw body_scanner_used_to_l​eer_at_naked.php. Thought to myself "I'd be happy if they spelled my name wrong were it associated with such an article"

Cool shot though.

Faaaark!! Just missed out on a mint 400 5.6 for £750, it was such a good price

grrrr can someone help me with my 7d custom shooting modes. Im trying to set AEB -1,0,+1 to custom1 and AEB -2,0,+2 to custom 2. However the setting dont stay. I set them and then after i redial a different mode the settings are gone. Im sure on my 40d they used to stay set until i set the exposure compensation back to 0... im confused, am i missing a setting?

Forgive the crappy shot but any ideas on how to try and read this writing on this stone with some sort of PP?

It says "Beneath this sod lies another". Simples

right my old piece of vinyl is going on offer.

Most of the marks have come out but I suggest getting a new core to roll it round. If your blowing it out then it would be perfect.

As I'm getting a new one for the price of a Courier ie £15 then its on offer for £15 collected or £15 plus postage. (I think Kay said she might have it but that was a while back so she gets first refusal but feel free to line up behind her for 2nd's). Its 2.7m by 7 or 8m.

Interesting bit on canon rumours about the possible pricing of the 1DsIV. Actually, the interesting bit is this line here:

That would be nice, and assuming the 1DsIV is launched june/july would fit in nicely with my purchase plans

Yeah that would be nice! But by that time you'd have saved enough for the 1Ds

You grossly overestimate my ability to save
