If the tide was low the SS Carbon wreck would have been visible.

I live on the Island and the website Hadron has linked has nearly everything you need to know. It is a fantastic place for photography. Seascapes, landscapes and astrophotography if you get away from the towns at night.

If the weight is not a problem and its just the cold, I would just wrap one leg. Road bike handle bar tape is what I would use. Ian

Just ordered one. Would be good for a back up drive.

I have the 18-250 Sigma on a D3200 and it will autofocus, so yes, you have answered your own question. They are a good value lens and reasonably sharp.

Handle bar tape for road bikes could be another option, especially if you are after a certain colour.

Stihl every time. I bought a Stihl HS45, its the low end model in their range. It does the job better than the cheaper mountfield I bought a few years ago. I have a Stihl strimmer from the 90's that still starts and runs well.

Depends if the subject is moving at a faster speed than you could keep up with.

I was recommended the Vanguard Alta Pro 263AB and bought it. Glad I did as it is very versatile and well worth the price.

I have one of these too. Its well made and very versatile. Hard to beat for the money.

So far it will be the alta pro 263ab 100. I still have a few more days before I have to decide. I do like the fact that they have a support service just in case.

Quite like the look of the Vanguard, ball head so no handles to get in the way.
