    Pros/cons of grey imports?

    Hi, Thank you all for your rapid responses on a Sunday morning :thumbs: Hi Andy, Waiting on a reply to a pm I sent Kerso. The ease of returning to Jessops for me is the biggest positive. Maybe I'm being too cautious? Can't find many negative reports about the reliabillity to the...

    Canon EOS 1DS???

    Hi Pete, You replied before I did. I do have a basic idea of settings, apertures, ISO etc I know it's a big jump from what I already have but the camera seems to be a good price. Would not have been my obvious upgrade otherwise. Even if I put it away until my camera skills improve. And I...
