    Starting out as a Graphic Designer

    @scotty "When I was at collage Mac's came along but we were marked down for using them in out final pieces as they thought they were a bit of a gimmick and considered it cheating." I got the opposite when I was doing my degree, we had a project in typography and it was to show hierarchy in a...

    Which camera brand is the best?

    I've got a Nikon D7200, love it to bits. Previously had a D80, also a very good camera. Prior to these the Olympus E20 and a 35mm Pentax P30 back in 1985.
