Thanks Tigger, sounds about right

Just realised i've missed out on the Xmas deals by a week or so... Looking for a 105mm Vr Macro and it would've been £565 with the cashback, Panamoz sell for £532. Should i hold out for the next Cashback offer (Easter??) or just jump in now, not in any immediate rush but the moneys burning a...

Can I ask where the Mandarin was shot? Been after trying to get a decent shot of one for about 5 years lol. Finally got one I'm half happy with in May. Will stick a couple of pics up later

Urgh not nice... Only thing I can suggest mate is some decent decongestant and dose up on painkillers. I always suffer with chronic ear infections so I sympathise with you. @ Nawty, lovely shots. The Pygmy is nice but the lion fish is the one!

Ps to the OP if you're interested in adding wet lenses to the housing the Inon stuff is worth a look

Whilst the air may be drier as you say, I probably tend to have the Ac so damn cold (Indonesia mostly) that as soon as I walk out of the room it's condensated the housing. I normally leave mine open of a night outside of the room now to combat this.

I'd agree with Mike apart from the air conditioned room part. Obviously depending on where you are in the world, especially if its somewhere humid, this can cause condensation on the inside of the housing when you then take it closed outside the room.

tbh it was about 18 months - 2 years ago so can't remember exactly what they declared it at. i Think it was full price though... Re: the warranty, touch wood, mine's been fine. But when i was researching it found there were places in the Uk it could be sent to if it developed a fault.

when i got mine, i got charged a whopping £12 import duty. :cool: and as has already been mentioned, as it came with an International warranty i wasn't worried.

i got my Tokina 11-16 from Fujisunrise and had it i my hand 68hrs after paying, have also bought other bits from him and received the same service. IMO he puts some UK sellers to shame, buy with confidence. p.s. it's a GREAT lens, i love mine!

Not sure if this will apply in your case, however, it may be of some help possibly? Read the last sentence. http://www.lawguarantee.com/consumer-protection-articles/guarantee-warranty-law-uk.html

Not a problem, be warned though, he can chew your ear off about cameras lol! Top bloke though even if he is a Northerner ;) , always happy to give impartial advice and never gives the hard sell.

out of interest was that 2nd year an offer on purchase or did you have to pay an extension fee? Seem to remember reading on here a while ago about some people getting an extra year for nowt? BTW to the original poster i had a similar problem with registering my last purchase (a 1.8 50mm)...

Think i like the top one out of the two, nice moody sky. right thats it, tomorrow i'm making an appointment to pick mine up i think! :sulk: :thumbs:
