Looks like she's covering her face with a handbag.

Yes I'd second the 18-200VR. It's a great walk around lens. PS Don't forget the waterproofs!!!!!!!:bonk:

I heard that Kata also specialize in making Kevlar bullet proof vests

I would recommend the Lowepro Vertex 200 AW. It Will take your kit no problem with room to spare and can also be taken as handluggage in an aircraft (Very Important!) The 8-point harness is top class and very comfortable for hiking and long treks. The Vertex will also take a 15" lap top and...

Thanks Guys, I've successfully turned on colour management via the about:config route. Graham

Thanks Gary and Alex, I'll look into a full clean with Cameratiks.

Hi Guys, I'd also like to know how to select a colour profile :wave:
