    Hi from Cumbria

    Hi,

    Just joined the forum after seeing Dave Miller had joined. We are both members of the Postal Photographic Club.
    I live just south of the Lake District. I have recently bought a Wista DXIII after using an Arca Swiss monorail for some years but not very successfully!

    Hoping to pick up a few tips on how to get the best from the equipment.

    Regards

    Bill

    Welcome to the LF Forum, Bill.

    As to your local club, you may have heard that "going Postal" has different connotations on this side of the pond.

    Man, what I would do to be able to shoot photos there ! You are a lucky chap indeed.

    Please post some of your images, successful or not. I'd love to see them.

    I was in Cumbria and the Lake District about a year ago-very beautiful. Welcome.
    Thanks,
