Oh, so its getting like that is it?

Well I bid, Pentax me super, 28mm lens, 50mm f1.7 and 80-210 zoom plus dedicated flash. Filters, various including UV , colours.

But being a complete traitor to the 35mm cause I tend to use an Olympus C60Z digital camara which is far lighter for Mrs Bob to carry around in her handbag.

Would be interested to know what everyone uses, there were some very good SLR's out there before digital came in.

Phew! What is it about photography that means 'simple' is never an option!

Thanks for the offers, I will be in touch but heading 'oop norf' might be a touch eccentric under the circumstances... thanks for the kind offer though bgx, and if I may say so, it sounds as though you have lovely 'equipment'!

If your going the the UKM event, maybe meet up with some there and go and get some shots done after the event?

Just an idea. If your in Paris i could help

Thank you very much for that very kind compliment. You may inspect my equipment whenever you wish, I can assure you it is in perfect working order.

Photographers always like to boast about how big the focal length of their equipment is. What filters they have, what beautiful bodies they have (SLR that is)

I hope you get what you are after. x
