    Just bought this... Cheap!

    Always great when you get a bargain - a friend of mine brought an old Nikon film camera at a car boot sale for £5 - the only reason he brought it was the 50mm 1.4 lens that was attached the front - amazing piece of glass! Happy Snapping

    As above - I use a lightmetre on all shoots (inside and outside) but know a lot of people who don't. I wondered what peoples thoughts are on the subject?
