    OM lens adapted for EF - good and bad

    I really like my Olympus 135mm f3.5 which I think can be picked up fairly cheaply as they were reasonable common after the 50mm f1.8.

    Inports or bought from a shop for more?

    Without wanting to take a deal away from Kerso many places do it cheaper than Jessops @ £660: http://www.camerapricebuster.co.uk/prod1212.html

    How big are the halls he's sharing with, generally everyone will bring a full-ish set of everything so if he's sharing a kitchen with 5-6 others that'll be 20 saucepans, 40 plates 100+ pieces of cutlery etc. We had a flat of 9 sharing a kitchen (Whitworth Park - Manchester) and half my stuff...

    Info re this lens please?

    It will fit on the camera mount OK but Sigma have to reverse engineer the electronic connections - so if canon make some subtle changes the compatibility can break. I've never had to face it but I think there were some changes around the time that digital came in (I think to get the lens...

    Canon EF 50mm f1.8 or Canon 50mm f1.8 II?

    FD is the old Canon mount from manual focus/apature days - it won't work on any EOS camera. (There are some adapters but they are not that cheap and usually have a poor optical element in them to regain infinity focus.)

    Sodding Royal Mail !!!

    Without wanting to be negative (and I hope your claim is OK), but I'd be surprised if there wasn't a list somewhere in Royal Mail of things you can't claim for and "Glass" would be right up near the top on there.

    Hi Martin, You can also use your old OM lenses on a Canon DSLR (I do, adatper rings are available on e-bay for about £10-15). As far as I know they won't work on a Nikon due to Nikon using a mount with a shorter back focus distance. Cheers, Matt

    Shoulder bag - that is suitable as flight hand luggage

    Don't know how big both cameras are but would something like a Crumpler New Delhi work. I think they do one with an internal laptop pocket for 12" laptops that would provide separation for the iPad.
