So, considering the fact they no longer stock Pentax, what are the feelings of the Jessops adds that have appeared on our site?
Cheers, HG

I wish they would BOG off, and that is not buy one get one free
Adams (CEO Jessops) can't "compete with on line shops" He said that not me.

Well I would not order anything from them on line, If they do go bust and you have paid, who looses?

Hi Mike, No, I changed my mind, tried the Tamron 1.5 on the Tamron 70-200 , strange banding , elliptical !
Chris sent me a Kenko 1.5 dg to try perfect, fitted it (Tamron 1.5 to Tamron 70-300 Di) all ok, perhaps that is why Tamron don’t do TCs now.
So now got a Sigma 140 ring flash, the new P-TTL one.
That will keep me busy playing for the next few days.

Would be interested to see some shots taken using that when you get round to it

Yes it would, and it didn't come from Jessops.

It works, but got to read the dreaded manual first and understand it?
First thing it says, after the Japanese/Chinese/ Korean pages, designed for the use with Sigma 50 macro/ 105 and 180.
My one is the 105mm, and that is as far as I have got, so this evening must read.
