...arrived today, weighing in at a rather decent 2.6kg

:drool:

Can't wait to try her out.

Will be bringing along to the track day

Is that to compensate for your small penis? :confused:

Looks the business mate Last TRAX you had me carry the HD professional TV camera - I guess I'd better start weight-training again.....

I guess female neighbours better keep their curtains drawn too....

Funnily enough, that's the third time I've heard that in the last 10 mins walking around the office

Edit: Jon, IIRC, you're a Nikon man. You'd be welcome to have a play at Hullavington if you want (only if you have a small penis too! :P)

You're a bad man giving me ideas Hadn't thought of that before you mentioned it, honest

Picked up a monopod today, and very nice it is too. Had a quick practice and it makes life sooo much easier

Hopefully, will get more play time this weekend and will bring with me to Hullavington

Feck me - Do you take pictures of small creatures on the moon with that fecker!!!

Is that one of the ?-500mm Sigmas Xavier?

Nope, it's this one. 120-300 f/2.8

Ooooh fast!

I have it

Yup. Just bought a cheap UV filter to go on the end - it's far too easy to leave greasy finger marks if you're not careful Although I guess a

I know, but the big names like Hoya don't seem to make a 105mm filter. I've only found some cheapy third party ones...

Have a monopod for the long reach shots. With an aperture of 2.8, in good light you get silly high shutter speeds that helps compensate. Of course, if I want a nice motion capture, I'm gonna have to learn how to hold it still

Will post some photos as soon as I've had the chance to have a serious play

Scroll down to where your lens is and it is listed underneath. Hope this helps.

Just learnt my bonus from work will land this year. And Jessops down the road have a D200 in stock which I can pick up at a reasonable price. Argh. :juggle:

Well, further to that mega expense with the lens, I picked up a D200 body today

OMFG is this just leaps and bounds ahead of my trusty old D70. :eek: :eek: :drool:

The AF speed and accuracy is just soooo quick. 5FPS is scarily fast, and all the options are available on buttons without the need to hunt around in menus A proper magnesium alloy body, weatherproof seals, the whole construction is just like a proper professional body. No flimsy plastic in sight

Looking forward to the beach shots
