Hello I'm Max, I love using all kinds of cameras and camcorders while creating photography content that people can enjoy!

Here is a quick Digicam/Camcorder buying guide...

1. Sensor (most important)
Ask if test photos were taken. Minor dead pixels that show on old digicam photos are normal with age, large clusters are not.

2. Lens
Small dust is common. Avoid deep scratches, haze, or fungus in the lens.

3. Battery
Turning on isn’t enough. Old batteries can drain fast or shut off. Ask if it was tested while shooting.

4. Cosmetic wear
Scratches and marks are normal on old cameras. Be wary of clever product angles hiding wear.

5. Buttons & zoom
Check buttons work, zoom is smooth, flash fires, images save.

6. Cables & chargers
Older cameras need specific chargers. Always check what’s included.

Easy option:
Buy one from me, I ensure that all my digicams and camcorders are fully tested! Check out the "Get a Camera/Camcorder from me" button for more information 🤝

How to Install Your New Lightroom Presets (iPhone, Android & Desktop)

📱 Mobile Users (iPhone & Android)

Use the DNG Files

These are the files ending in .dng and they work on any phone using the free Lightroom Mobile app.

Step-by-Step (iPhone & Android)

1. Download the preset pack to your phone.
2. Open the .zip folder → find the DNG files.
3. Tap each DNG file and choose:
    - “Share → Open in Lightroom”or
    - “Save to Files” → then import into Lightroom later
4. Lightroom will open the DNG as a photo.
5. Tap the three dots (•••) in the top right.
6. Tap Create Preset.
7. Give it a name (e.g., Dawn Chorus).
8. Tap Save.

Your preset will now appear under:

Presets → User Presets

🎉 You’re ready to start editing!

🍏 iPhone-Specific Notes

- If your iPhone asks how to open a DNG: choose Lightroom.
- If the files save to Files/iCloud, just open Lightroom → Add Photos → choose the DNG.

🤖 Android-Specific Notes

- If the DNG doesn’t open automatically, open Lightroom → Add Photos manually.

💻 Desktop Users (Mac & Windows)

Use the XMP Files

These are for Lightroom Classic / Lightroom Desktop CC.

2. Go to the Develop tab.
