If you`re into Aircraft photography,I`ve recently read on the Cotswold Airshow (formally Kemble Airshow) pages on fakebook that 3 date have been confirmed for 2010...1 for the Cotswold Airshow,1 for the Battle of Britain Memmorial Show and 1 other which I think is a Vintage Fly In,although I could be wrong.

The Reds have been confirmed for the Cotswold Airshow but whether the Vulcan will make an appearance or not is unconfirmed as she`s parked at RAF Lyneham at the moment.The BBMF including the Lanc has been confirmed for the BBMS.

I suppose there comes a time when "affording it" becomes "investing in"....but I know where you`re coming from.

Nic

You`ve caught an almost "Dirty Harry" expression there...he he he

Nic

Nah,making sense would be a Tamron or Sigma and the balance put in my ISA...he he he.

Nic

You say "they won`t do"...but surely photography is like being an being art/theatre/food critic...beauty is in the eye/mouth of the beholder!

Afteral,some of what George Sewell says makes no sense to me at all.

I admit that when I took my K10D into Asahi for a shutter repair,I didn`t take note of the Firmwire version that was on it but when I got it back,fixed and serviced (as per the job sheet/invoice),it shows version 1.3 is installed,yet the Pentax site only showed version 1.1 (atleast,that`s the version I saw on the update page when I looked over the weekend).If you`re concerned about self installation then why not have it serviced and updated by your local retailer?.

Just a thought.

Thanks for the H/U...still got 2 days to get down to LCE (Bristol) to see what they can do 1 for....now that Stefan has put me right on the Tamron 200-500.

Nic

Ahh!!,that put pay to that one with a swift swipe...

Thanks Stefan.

Nic

Bless me Father,for I have sinned...ha ha ha

I`ve just seen on Simply Electronics that they have a Sigma 150-500 available but also note that Tamron do a 200-500.I appreciate that there`s a £150 difference but just wondered what the general view was on the pros & cons of both if you had the chance of either.

I`ve checked the pervious topics but they relate to the 300mm lenses from what I can see.
