I just picked up a Tokina 11-16mm F/2.8 from Kerso. Yet to have much of a play with it, but it gets decent write ups. It wont produce the extreme fisheye as per the 10.5mm shown above however, so depends what you're after.

Perfect!!! many thanks :D

Hi, Does anybody have a spare serial number for Sandisk RescuePro from the Sandisk extreme 3 cards please? I have the CD, but threw away the paper sleeve before installing, so now cant use it :(

yes i think so but only with some slight jiggery pokery. The bottom section should just about take your 300mm with the divider removed. you could then use this divider to split the upper 'camera' part to divide off a space for your 12-24. Only problem is, there's no velcro on the top side of...

yup. max handluggage size is 56cm x 45 x 25 primus is 51 cm X 33.5 X 23.5

St Peter's and the Vatican I agree with Glo, early morning or very late at night will be your best chances of capturing the Trevi fountain without hoards of people. you are going at quite a good time of year though, as there are far fewer crouds compared to later in the season when it...

That thing is awesome! :thumbs:

for future reference, dont use your filtered tap water for lens cleaning. it will probably contain more dissolved solids than your regular tap water (assuming its an ion exchange water softener, which most of them are). this will produce more residue. Distilled, de-ionised or reverse...

Excellent. I work that out to be over 2KGs, so it should be fine with my gear :thumbs:

there's also a Velbon Ultra stick 50 as well. even short when collapsed than the 790B??? havent seen one in the flesh though...
