That's great, thanks. Not heard of that website before!

Thanks, I'm aware of new prices (I've even used Hdew before to buy my 7D) but I'm more keen to know whether the prices of these bodies have fallen much since the release of the Mark IV? It was my understanding that they hadn't (and therefore they might be expected to fall in the short-term).

Apologies for the thread bump but wanting to get a few opinions on the 5D Mark III... I currently use a 7D (Mark I) but am looking to upgrade, perhaps going full frame. With the release of the 5D Mark IV, have the prices of the Mark III come down much yet? I don't want to splash out if they are...

Thanks very much, South America and the Galapagos in particular is a really special place. I'd thoroughly recommend visiting if you can, there's always something to look at! The birds and animals were not fazed by humans at all, the Yellow Warbler often got so close that I couldn't focus on it...

All, I'm looking for some advice. I have a Canon 7D (owned lenses below). I will be heading off to South America for most of August on honeymoon. We will be walking the Inca Trail, heading into the Amazon a little (Puerto Maldanado) and heading to the Galapagos Islands for a week or so. There...

Is the price of the Lee system/filters worth it over Cokin et al.? I've heard mixed reviews...

I use lens pens which seem to work great. Sorry to hijack (but it's related), any recommendations on rocket blowers?
