<p>[[There is no law stating you have to completely fill the print. Adjust the matting on you frame to the new area.]]</p> <p>Indeed. </p>

<p>Amazon.co.uk has the 1200D w/ 18-55mm IS lens for £260.00, new. I would be rather surprised if you got more than £400 for a used body/lens, even if it is the 18-135mm IS. </p>

The flash has manual features, just not on the flash. The settings are changed in-camera. Recycle times can be reduced with good sets of NiHM or Lithium batteries, but really, the flash can only push so much. I don't know much about third party flash units, but the 430ex iii would be a good step up.

<p>edit: misread the monitor dimensions. </p> <p> </p>

<p>A refurbished 55-250mm from Canon directly is only $89 right now. I would not bother with trying to have it looked at, just buy another one:<br /> http://shop.usa.canon.com/shop/en/catalog/ef-s-55-250mm-f-4-56-is-ii-refurbished</p> <p>(note you can save even more when you buy a refurbished DSLR) </p>

<p>The T5i would be the better choice over the T5 for a trip, as Kenneth points out. The AF is better and the frame rate is better, especially if you're shooting RAW.</p> <p>If you are shooting wildlife from a boat, I would say that a lens that reaches 300mm with Image Stabilization is the minimum you would want to have with you. </p> <p>Whatever you buy (or rent) I would highly, highly, recommend you use the heck out of any new-to-you equipment before going on this trip. You should be very familiar with the controls and with the type of output you'll be getting from any new camera or lens before going. </p>

<p>[[still, I don't see any rational for this kind of explicit ostracism.]]</p> <p>The issue was settled ages ago. If you don't like the rules, then don't participate. </p>

<p>You should not buy a kit with the 75-300mm lens, especially if you have the 70-200L already. The T5 bundle is sold with Canon's cheapest telephoto zoom available and the quality is well below that of any 70-200.</p> <p>Other than that, your upgrade path should be a combination of "fits my budget" and "meets my output needs." Are you looking to make huge prints with the results? What subjects are you looking to capture? What, if any, restrictions do you have on equipment you can carry on your trip? </p> <p>Assuming wildlife is an important part of the trip, I'd go looking for a Canon 100-400mm either used to buy or to rent (depending on the length of your trip).</p>

There is nothing wrong with your sensor. The problem is with the RAW conversion. I would recommend reinstalling the Adobe Camera RAW plugin with Photoshop.

<p>[[ My PC has a 1 GB RAM and 2 GHz processor. When I tried to open a 10 MB file yesterday, it was struggling to open ]]<br> I know you said your budget is limited, and not knowing how easy it would be to upgrade the RAM on your existing PC, but there are many desktop deals to be had. For example:<br> http://flash.newegg.com/Product/9SIA2PF2SN0234</p> <p> </p>

<p>Not sure where you are located, but B&H has the D3300 w/ 18-55mm II for $497:<br> <a href="http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1023353-REG/nikon_1532_d3300_dslr_camera_with.html">http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1023353-REG/nikon_1532_d3300_dslr_camera_with.html</a><br> And that includes a SD card, extra battery, and small bag.</p>

<p>1. What is your budget? If you can afford the camera with both lenses, then I would say go for it. However, if your budget is limited, then buy the camera with the 18-55mm lens. You will be able to learn A LOT about photography with just that setup. You can always add lenses later. </p> <p>2. The only limit will be your willingness to learn. If you're interested in photographing at night then you should strongly consider adding a tripod to your shopping list. </p> <p>3. I only use live view for macro photography, so I'm not a good resource for this. I would recommend you stick with the optical viewfinder while learning the fundamentals. </p> <p>4. Are you sure of this? Shooting JPGs from the D3300 does not require a very powerful computer. Shooting RAW just means the processing would take a bit longer. I have used a 10 year old computer to work with RAW files. It's slow, but hardly worth spending a ton of money on just for editing. </p>

<p>Due to a combination of a dying laptop and discovery of a decent deal, we purchased a brand new laptop late last week, which was delivered on Wednesday. All my machines are running Windows 7, so I booted the new machine, did the initial setup of Windows 8.1 which turned right around and prompted for the Windows 10 upgrade. Within an hour or so of first powering it on we were running 10. A bit of a learning curve as we did not have any experience with 8/8.1 However, the laptop does have a touchscreen (anticipating the Windows 10 upgrade) which has been really nice.<br> Our older Windows 7 desktop I'm waiting on for now. It does the heaving lifting for photo editing/storage/backups so I'm less excited about touching that one. I'll probably wait a bit for any major Win 10 updates to be distributed before moving over. </p>

<p>$300 for a used D90 is $200 too much, IMHO. </p>

<p>Is the battery the original battery from when you purchased the camera?</p>

<p>Not auto-rotating them where? On the camera? In software on your computer? </p>

<p>[[We just bought the new Canon EOS 5DS R Camera and Our CF Cards are too slow for it.]]</p> <p>Though this is only one data point, the poster here claims only a small difference in write times between the cards he tested: <br> http://www.dpreview.com/forums/post/56017902<br> Seems like any one of those would be a good place to start. </p>

<p>The 60D does not appear to have a user replaceable date/time battery.</p>

<p>Don't call it 10 yet, it was only announced by Canon in August of 2006! :)</p> <p>Seriously though, if you're happy with the size of the XTi, a T6s would be a fine upgrade. The 70D is going to be larger and heaver and the 7D II larger and heaver still. Both are stellar cameras, but if size/weight are important then the T6s is going to be the best drop-in replacement.</p>

As Daniel says, that's a tough fix. As someone who is also still using a 350D, I know what my strategy will be: buy a new-to-me camera. Depending on where you are, the Canon Refurbished store online offers good deals many times a year. If you are in the US you can call them about their Customer Loyalty Program where you can trade in the malfunctioning 350D for a discounted refurb. Otherwise take a look for good deals on the T5i or even the T3i which is still available.

<p>Why would you need to uncompress it manually? Doesn't Lightroom, when importing from backup, handled that work for you?</p>
