Recieved yesterday:thumbs: Hopefully watch this weekend and then will send it on.

Perfect, hopefully that will have the flash sorted, thanks. In my total despair I didnt even think of looking on ebay and I could not even remember it was called the hot shoe!!!!

My camera (canon 5D) fell over tonight and the flash (canon 430ex) broke of the top, breaking on side of the bracket on top and one side off the bottom of the flash:( Anyone if these are repairable? If so where? I am gutted, more so as we have a 7 day old daughter:bang:

@leftcurl - my name seems to have dropped off the list, something I said??

If its anything like the displays at the Hawk Conservancy itself, it will be great:thumbs:

I picked up one of these a few weeks ago and love it:thumbs:

Thanks, thatswhat I thought but just wanted to make sure. Hopefully the new CPL will arrive today in time for the weekend.

I just went for a Hoya 77mm PRO1 Digital Circular PL Filter from amazon. They are very reasonable at the moment at £65, that over £30 better than on camerapricebuster: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Hoya-77mm-Digital-Circular-Filter/dp/B000KKVFD6/ref=pd_cp_ce_1

Unfortunately my CPL Filter came apart at the weekend, I have just ordered a new one, but it made me think, is there a need for a CPl when using filters such as the 10 stop? I guess using a ND grad some of the image will still have glare? Having never compared using a ND etc without a CPL I...

I have this lens and I am very happy with the results. Are you happy with 50mm? Another option is the 85mm F1.8 or even the sigma 85mm F1.4.

I had the Sigma 50-150mm and found it good, although I then sold it when I got the canon 50mm f1.4 as I found the pictures from the F1.4 really had that wow factor compared. Further down the line I have added the Canon 135mm f2. I think the question is if the OP is wanting one lens to do all...

Thanks, looking forward to seeing whats on the DVD, to hopefully get the best from the 5D.

I have a similiar set up: 5D with 35mm F2 7d with 135mm F2 And the Canon 50mm F1.4 to swap between as needed. I am convincing myself I dont need the 85mm:thumbs:

:thumbs:Agree. Its my current combo too.

Yes, I was eyeing up the 35mm, but couldn't afford it or justify it. I just bought a 35mm F2 to see how it goes, although I think the 1.4L is in a different league.
