My own Christmas prezzies to myself are tucked up in my bag ready for their first outing tomorrow and boxing day.

Just added a Sigma 70-200mm ƒ2.8II APO EX DG Macro and Sigma 2X Converter.

And thanks to prompt delivery but Puddleduck a MB - D200 Grip.

Thats the best I will do this year the rest will be socks and stuff.....

I will be posting some examples in the next couple of days V8 so keep your eyes open.

Get one before they go up at the end of Jan, have heard prices will be hiked then. Do not know how true it is...

But you can get the new version lens and 2x converter for around 649.00 at the moment.

I hope you get as much fun out of your 70-200 as I do out of mine*, good idea about the socks Yv - maybe I should have asked for some as well :D

* just be careful not to fall up steps whilst holding it !

I am sure I will Kerioak... and I think if TP ever puts together a football team you should be in goal as the camera save was spectacular..

Happy Christmas

Nigel.
 
You can get IS on the canon version and Vr on the Nikon but at a price. As of yet I have not had a chance to get out with the lens.
 
i like the sock tip :D! i wish i had told the man to get me some new toys instead of what's apparently a girls best friend, lol. at least i could have taken pics with that!
...this is one of those times when boys are right when they tease girls about what they like and how silly it is!!
