Just to update this, I ordered my camera and lens combo last Wednesday, it was shipped Sunday, hoping it may turn up tomorrow, although the DPD tracking is showing they're still waiting for the parcel.

I love mine, I stangely also have an itch for the f/2 version as well though!

I'm on the verge of buying an X-E4 with the 27mm WR, but I want to buy the TR-XE4 thumb rest too. I'm struggling to find this in stock anywhere, does anyone on here have any info as to when they're going to be available?

Thank you!

Just to jump on this, has anyone ordered since they removed Paypal as a payment option? I've ordered from them before and was very happy with the service, but I'm a bit more hesitant now that they've stopped using Paypal. I'm sure it'll be fine, just wanted to put my mind at ease. They're not...

I think you may be correct!

Picked this up on ebay the other day. I've wanted to get myself a Leica for a while now, but funds simply don't allow at the minute unless I shift more of my gear than I'm really happy letting go of, so I picked up a Soviet cousin. A Zorki S with Industar-22 5cm f/3.5. It's my first true...

Minolta X-500 with 50mm F/1.7 lens Ilford HP5+ pushed to 1600 Chelmsford Cathedral by Josh Kneller, on Flickr

We had a couple of extremely foggy days last week, so it made the perfect excuse to get out and shoot in the local high street. This was from my first roll of HP5 at box speed, so it's not perfect, but I wanted to see how it reacted to different lighting situations. I've just finished off a...

Ah that's fair enough. It's something I've budgeted for, so either way not a problem. Thanks for all of the advice!

Thanks, I'm going to do a little experimenting with it, see what I can come up with. I've heard a lot of people saying similar, unfortunately I wasn't able to shoot with either the earlier Ektachrome or Kodachrome.

Thank you, that's not going to be loaded up as an every day film. It was on a good deal and I had a voucher code available to managed to pick it up for just £3.50, so would have been silly not to!

I assumed so as it's been delivered and there was no note or anything attached and nothing was mentioned by FedEx. Seems I've got very lucky!

My Minolta X-500 turned up today, and I'm over the moon with it. I've loaded up a roll of HP5 and I'm hoping for the chance to get out over the next couple of days with it. It'll be my first time pushing film, so looking forward to seeing how it turns out! Minolta X-500 by Josh Kneller, on...

Camera turned up today. A week exactly from ordering to delivery. No customs/import fees so far, am I to assume that as I've not been informed of anything, I won't be charged as it seems a little too good to be true! Camera is in mint condition, exactly as described. I would have absolutely...
