Anyone got Canon 35mm and/or 50mm lenses for sale....need to be in perfect working condition but not so bothered about looks?

Mm can't say I've attempted anything like that. Could always snap it in natural light and then just photoshop to get the white background/Shadow. Controversial idea perhaps!

@kboy

ked with photographers before so have spent some time work

What's the product?

I'm just giving cycling product photography a go at the moment.

I've seen one that's similar to this and they are beautiful bikes.....too big for me unfortunately.

I'm a slight tentative due to location I'm in London and a tendancy for life to get in the way of plans. So if there is someone else who is a definite I don't want to block a place. It's a very kind offer for you to do this and hopefully I can make it though. Obviously happy to chip in for ingredients/whatever else...

Ok thanks.....if the image quality is pretty similar I might stick with the 1.8 then.....

Any other lens you've particularly loved? In the budget end of the spectrum

So I've been shooting on a Canon 50mm F1.8 Lens.....borrowed from a friend. Getting to the
point where it's time to buy my own....

Is the F1.4 worth the extra? Any other recommendation for fixed lens to go on a Canon?

Its mainly for cycling photography and coffee/portraits.

Might be not quite what you are looking for but I've found the Iphone Lightroom App Free contents to be very useful

Very nice!

Had a black cab overtake me leaving centimeters to spare this morning. When I raised this point to him he 'not in so many words' said that he'd done it on purpose.....

It is annoying when people think they can deliberately put your life in danger and not have any responsibility.

Rant over.

Nice! -17 degree stem would look good.....

Yep surfaces are generally good it's just the mud and animal droppings which can be an issue!

Where are you based? I'm London but a regular visitor to the midlands

The second part was the story of most of my summer

I've replaced cycling with drinking

Haha guessing you were riding round a country or something @hippy?

If this was gears: Shimano 105 does this job nicely. Good price on Wiggle last time I looked.

Single Speed: No idea sorry

Sounds excellent! How are you going to make coffee though?

Indeed! I often come across your name on the strava leader boards. I've written up the pictures with a few comments, any feedback appreciated. Strava route below

Thank you. It was honestly even better than it looks in person.

Little spin around Leicestershire as the sun was rising. I'd forgotten how stunning the countryside is with sunrise. Not very quick because I was stopping so often to take snaps. Doesn't really do it justice but these were my best shots

Snaps from the Kettering CC Hill Climb

Heading to Kettering cc hill climb this morning in case any lfgss -era are going......

@matisse I'd be very up for the barista training evening. Pretty flexible for evenings Sept Oct.
I was thinking of doing the formal barista training but perhaps a slight overkill since it's more for my own interest than professional training.

Yep it's a quality spot. They've got locks for bikes outside, assembly beans, top notch kit. Yep 3 really nice chaps from Brixton Cc it's also got a few other elements supported from members if the club in the design.

Motto is Good Things and has a healthy theme but serves coffee inc. milk drinks, local beers and light food.

If you're an Instagramer just featured them on my account london_baristas

It's a perfect pre post ride spot for a Kent ride

Probably the nicest looking brompton frame in my opinion
