I still regret selling my 400mm F5.6 as it became my walkabout lenses!! Fantastically sharp and fast to focus but you need to consider the relatively long minimum focus distance (12 or 13ft I recall) as that may impact your use. I would probably go 300mm with IS plus a Canon TC if I was in...

Flipboard for show and Reeder for regular use

Why not push the photo's you want into albums and sync to the MBP using Home sharing rather than connecting the iPad to two devices?

These often show up on Amazon for less than a tenner. Keep an eye on hotukdeals.com.

Many thanks for all the information guys, much appreciated. Really looking forward to it arriving now. Mark

Thanks guys, also looking for thoughts on best IM, Twitter client, Browser, FTP, un-archiver, Email client, any other essential utils or must have apps/games? Other than being very cost effective, how does Kompozer compare to Dreamweaver or Flux 3? Do you have Outlook as well? Wish they have...

Not sure I can agree with you on this one, although I do have to admit having had an Ipad from launch (1st Apple device). For business users I think it will be a three way race between Apple, Blackberry and HP (Palm) mainly based on management and security needs. For personal users, its...

All, many thanks for the responses. Its really reassuring that I'm not the only one! I will look at the Pentax but I like the idea of the swivel screen, especially for video and macro. I really like the styling of the PEN's but the reports on AF speed and the relatively poor yet expensive...

Guys, I have been around this forum from the very start but have never been a very active poster. I am hoping you can help me as I think I am at a crossroads with my photography equipment and am looking for alternate views as to the right direction for me. A bit of background first...
