You would never think a converter was involved, nice and sharp.

I've used quite a lot of 2GB Lexar 133x and Lexar CF 133x and have had no problems with them at all. It's only the price that stops me buying the 8GB's. Having said that my last 8GB purchase was an ATP Promax 150x which cost £30 off Amazon.

A very good search engine for cards is:

Transcend Class 10 have a very poor reputation. Plus a lot of
Class 6 cards are as fast/faster.
That's probably why the prices have been reduced.
Just search Google.

I used Picstop for ages. Very helpful, and if you get their Jersey based products they are legit VAT free

Isn't it VAT free only if it's below a certain amount.... £17 I think?

7Day have always been quick with anything I've ordered from them.

They have retail packed Toshiba Black 4GB for £7.49 or cheaper in bulk.

Very wise. Far too good to sell for such a low price.
Why!!! it's almost as good as the 'A' 35-70mm f/4

I joined yesterday (£35) having paid £9 each time on my previous visits. Now I'll have to start visiting the other sites

Nice shot not the easiest of things to achieve a decent composition from, but this has worked quite well and you have the correct golden tone.

Nice shot John, I was there about 2 weeks ago and again yesterday. Unfortunately a lot of the flowers that attract large groups of butterflies had died off in the meantime. There were still a few around though.

For anyone living within traveling distance Martin Mere is well worth the visit. It's being extended all the time and they have a lot of rare ducks, geese, swans (at least 4 types), flamingos, cranes, otters etc.

I'd be very surprised if the mail order people worked Bank Holidays, possibly one or two just taking orders. Shop staff work differently to mail order.

I've bought a few things off Techfurb and they are really fast with delivery usually next day via DHL.

Nice colours and the light seems very evenly balanced.
