    Travel Camera Bags - advice please

    Looking for advice on a travel camera bag. Specifically one that can be carried on an airplane/put under a seat.

    Exposure X6 software - Dustin Abbott review ... anyone try it

    I'm using On1 for now but still not satisfied with noise controls. Tried LR Classic again briefly and aside from them assuming you'd auto-subscribe it didn't seem much better then LR6... only problem being support for R5. Tried DX0 and it seemed a bit slow and noise not much better than On1...

    taken earlier in the year.. was more fiddling with the On1 2019 Beta and I think I'm getting the hang of the tool (some quirks that annoying, but more or less now ready to take on LR). Also... bloody hell if my 80D with an old 180L macro doesn't take nice shots :) still want better gear, but...
