Hi, I'm looking for somebody to launder money for me.
Sorry wrong template! your bank manager will be in tears seeing ALL that money leaving your account.
Hope you enjoy your new lens when it arrives, from a jealous Member

Lots of film bodies, a couple of digital ones, too many lenses (mainly older glass) and a Horseman LE 5x4.

Let us know when you get it and let's see some of those wonderful images you got us used to see .Well folk !...I've just splashed out my life savings on DA* 300MM f4! From our friends at "SRS!"..............Oh the pain!...lol......
I have been promised one of this for my birthday by wife , but the condition is she wants to see by then some major improvements in the shots I take to impress her with the lenses I already own. LOL, yup, she has raided my camera bag ha , so she knows what I have.
So I got to get cracking and you all can contribute for that lovely addition in my camera bag by guiding and helping me improve .
Now on the more serious side, definitely your help and advice here in the forum has helped me notch a gear higher and I can feel treading the waters much better and with much more confidence too . So a huge thank you to all you people.

And I quite often use mine handheld. When you've used a Tamron 300mm f/2.8, which is basically one big lump of glass and brass, the DA*300mm is a featherweight! I use mine quite often with a monopod
