Don't really care as long as it's not mine.
Most stores usually borrow the money from a HP company and stand the interest payments themselves.... quite sure Jessops do the same they can't afford to wait 10 months for the cash

My disappointment is a personal one. Was hoping to add the 21mm to my collection in the near future. I was suggesting to the missus that it was £300 and odd quid (even though the odd was another £79 if I recall correctly). Now at £500 and odd quid, I've got no chance for the forseeable
Fotosense still list it at £389. I think it's free postage over £35 as well

£399 at Mathers

My first proper SLR was a Praktica, but I only kept it for about
3 months before buying a new Spotmatic. The release was awful

At least they had the engineering know how to make a finder that
could be adpated to the K-01

Am I really the only person who thinks that 100 year old news story about a ship sinking isn't the most important thing in the world?
