Don't buy them then, that should bring the price down if they want to sell them!
think that would stop production in k mount

With a wordpress blog to change it you choose a new theme install and test.

Regards SEPTEMBER metastatic in your images helps a lot. I know my images are top of most goggles searches on my site and flick due to filling out metastatic correctly

I do have insurance Mike but it has a £100 excess, so if I can get it repaired cheaper then better for me

Thanks for that algernon hopefully the plastic mount has given way and left the screws intact...

The screws are tight its the plastic ring between the mount and focus ring.

Have just had a look on my phone. First thing to bare in mind is the majority of views to your site will come from social networking sites... If you do some promotion it will most likely be through social network sites. 40% of the mobile phone market are smart phones 80% of these smartphone users use smartphones purely for social networking, from their they will visit websites.

So for that reason wix is not a good idea. The best compromise is a wordpress blog. Wordpress is easy to implement but more importantlywhen viewed on a smartphone wordpress s will resize to fit the small screen and also resize images to reduce bandwidth.

Back to your site. I could view it but it was cumbersome clunky and dysfunctional. Excellent photography but poorly presented. Music on a website is so 1997 could you imagine amazon or play. Com having music???

Blue text is also not a good idea makes it hard to read.

Sorry if it sounds harsh but I think you are truly underpresenting your fabulous photography
