If you go down to any of the beaches around 8 or 9pm or 10pm on the Costa Del Sol they are everywhere and lovely they are too, mmmm think I'll go now.
I can almost feel that lovely flavour of sardines being grilled in the air hmmmm goshhh now my tummy is rumbling . I better get up early tomorrow and head to Billingsgate
Thanks Jack, now see what you have done? I will be dreaming of sardines and will have to get up at 5AM to drive to Billingsgate
Sardines anyone for tomorrow? Better pray for good weather as they can only be grilled outside,

Sounds like Pentax
How about a loan service on the demo K-7s Chris so some of us others can get a few days to try one out properly
I think its a brilliant idea

And the previous batch the lovely bird looks stunning too.
All the images that you guys took on that meeting make a fantastic collection. I think this forum should start compiling a special collection of images of all the meetings that are arranged .
Oh by the way, Alan's images on all of them are far from reminding "impotent spider" , he looks more like an SAS guy or a commando, even the way he is holding his camera with the long lens looks like a machine gun to me
Terry, I am a bit lost on the watermark on these last images, what does TPK stand for? I know what TTK is but where did the P come from?

Surprise surprise after Jack gave me the websites and I saw the price differences I went back to my original supplier and told him that they were stitching me up and I could get the original ones cheaper they immediately slashed down the price for me and guess what? They ended up selling me the original ones at the same price I would be getting the compatible ones. So I can only imagine the mark up that they put on these stuff. They slashed almost 50% from the original costs,
So all in all the links you gave me Jack worked out trumps. , When I called my supplier back I told him I would even give them the websites where the prices were cheaper and why the heck were they stitching me up lol. Worked wonders

If they are special prints you want to keep for a long time I would go for originals, if they are just for general use the cheap ones are good enough, you can always print them again if they fade.
Jack.
Just stashed on the bits now thanks to your great advice even managed to save up quite a bit from what I had thought I would be paying in the beginning and got some good savings thanks to you

The prices seem to be half of the original ones. Is it worth risking the compatible to print in high quality paper?

Notification of the gallery comments would make it perfect.
Uploading an image and then having to constantly go there to check if any comment has been made seems a bit frustrating to me.
And its really awful having to keep on flipping all the old images constantly to check if any new comment has been made.
After a while I just stopped uploading my images there.
Either that, or may be the reason I stopped was just because I kept getting too drunk or stoned after coming out from the shed so just couldn't find my way around the gallery
