Have a look at Fotospeed's website and if anything takes your fancy give them a call, they know what they are talking about. Last time I wanted to replace...

Oops, forgot to mention - the 12-40/2.8 is one of the lenses with the clutch.

One thing to be aware of: please accept my apologies if you have sussed it out already and I am teaching granny to suck eggs.

Some of the...

Welcome aboard. It looks like you are off toa good start.

As you have already discovered, a lot of the old 4/3 lenses are pretty good. They...

I went to the Guildford session today where Clare Harvey-May was in charge. It was good, I had unobstructed access for about 10 minutes and came to pretty...

[Bikie John]

Nice. We used to get class 50s, aka Hoovers, occasionally down here. The local spotters used to go bananas for them! I once caught a train down the Salisbury-Yeovil...

Thanks Gerry. I went to Guildford today (which I fear may turn into an expensive trip!) and had a minor moan to Cla(i)re about the timing.

I got an email from OMDS yesterday afternoon which included a list of dates and venues to get hands-on with the new 50-200mm. Great, I thought, I wonder...

Background - this is the reverse side ("tails") of UK coins (well, English, I'm not sure whether...

Welcome back! it's interesting that you have done the rounds but are back and using a hybrid setup. Looking forward to seeing some pics.

[Bikie John]

Interesting to see the division of opinion. I had a slight preference for the horizontal version, because I think it is about the big landscape and this...

[Bikie John]

Bit scary if it can flood enough to join up the lakes! Glad you got lucky, 2 good days out of 3 is a pretty good record any time.

[Bikie John]

From what I have read on other forums, the service from MPB can vary a lot depending on where you are. The original operation in the UK still seems to...

[Bikie John]

Nicely done. Are those fields to the left of the lake flooded?

[Bikie John]

Don't count your chickens, Henry - you haven't got the new one yet!

John...

[Bikie John]

Just a thought Carol - you could try a close-up lens on one of the lenses you already have. I've no idea how good they are, but it would give you a chance...

[Bikie John]

That takes me back. My first "proper" camera was an Exakta - an Exa 500, their entry-level SLR. I had the Meyer Lydith 30mm f/3.5 along with...
