I too travel with more lenses than socks. Socks you can always wash or if you are really desperate you can buy some new ones. Lenses are another matter entirely.
You mean you can't wash a lens and use it more than once...
A DA* or WR I guess..
WR (Wash-machine Resistant) ?

That would be something for the Jessops staff to say

Are you suggesting it's going down the drain Graham?

I think it's more like an old wooly pullover that's been washed...

...stretched!

Off to York for a wander today. K200 with Tammy 18-250 on shoulder and Oly XA in pocket.

Hope the weather lasts.
Cheers, HG

K110+DA40, K200+DA35, K3 and a bag of lenses, bodies and other bits.

Mustn't forget the Zenits, or folders, or...

With this weather, there is very little going down the drain.

I am just off to the Cotswolds with Pentax KX, K20 and 3 bags of lenses.

The old pullover is in the boot though.

Along with the spare socks, no doubt!

Not sure what the landscape will be like. I think images of pancakes come to mind!

Perhaps a side trip to the famous Black Hills of Dakota?

What a wally!

Got to York, opened the bag and found the K200 had the Samsung 100mm on!

Never mind, i managed to get some shots to sort, one or two may be OK, you never know.

No excuse, there is a camera shop in York that stocks Pentax you know, would have been a good excuse to exercise the LBA

Called in for a chat, nice guys.

No lenses that I want though.

As for the 'new Sigma', I wonder if Lowepro do a case for it?
