Not much action on here lately!!

Was lucky enough to be holidaying in County Durham last week and finally got the weather to visit these beautiful falls yesterday. This is my first attempt at photographing waterfalls so please be gently with me lol

I have this lens and use it all regularly, I like it. It is very good hand held at 500mm with the Sigma OS settings. Apart from the Canon 'nifty fifty' all my lenses are Sigma, the 105mm Macro and the 10-20mm 3.5 WA often top the ratings on test in the Canon edition of Photo Plus. I use the 70D which is excellent.

I took the plunge on the Adobe monthly subscription (£8.75) for which I get the latest Photoshop and Lightroom 6, these are updated to keep pace with changes. I have began to use PS more and am slowly getting to grips with it, but as said on here it is a professional tool and takes a lot of getting use to. I have used LR to play with RAW images, but tend to use PS more often. The good thing is that you hardly miss the monthly fee and it's yearly equivelant is the same buying Element outright (not including upgrades).

Not sure if this thread is worth resurrecting since the last post was 18 months ago, but here goes.

I need to buy a travel friendly camera, something that takes sharp shots, decent auto focus, not too big/bulky or takes ages to set up but has a good zoom - probably for no more than £300.

Any suggestions?

For their modest price Nikon Coolpix compacts (if they still make them) are very good. Canon bridge cameras seem very good too. Edit: Could try this website (one of the places I buy stuff from) - you can input camera type, brand, price range and then look at the options. When you have decided what suits you can then shop around. For a UK based supplier they have been good for what I have bought and you can speak to the on 'phone https://www.cliftoncameras.co.uk/Compac ... icerange/2 (NB That link is to compact systems - the "digital cameras" section is probably more help).
