When you say metering issues. What sort of issues would i likely encounter. I have very little experience with the K and M lenses but i have heard of these metering problems. But i have also heard people say they use them all the time with no problems at all

Whats your opinion of this lens and what would be a fair price to pay for it : From what i have read its a very good lens and the price as it stands seems reasonable but that could change very quickly over the remaining 7 hours

One would hope so.

We had a bizarre meeting with a hot air baloon once. We were sitting in a field with our picnic nicely laid out and the sun slowly sinking...very nice setting.

A small truck suddenly arrived, and the bizarre part was them unloading a hot air baloon, setting up the heater and floating off into the sunset.....

It all seemed rather surreal at the time.

And i bet you didn't have your camera with you at the time :

Nice shot Peter but are they really sparks bouncing off the balloon in the foreground

There are some good deals on these at www.7dayshop.com in the UK.

As to fakes, you really need to go to a known dealer to avoid them. There are a couple of articles on eBay about them and what to look for.

They don't ship too Australia unfortunatley

I bought mine from 7dayshop too and they come in full retail packaging with a small plastic hard case, a soft zip-up case for carrying two cards, a disc of photo recovery software and a free version of CaptureOne LE. I doubt the "fake" ones would have all the extra bits in the box.

Sounds like a good deal i will check out there shipping and billing details thanks

Thanks Kim. Some very good prices indeed. But i can't work out how the 1GB is reduced from 55quid to 11.50 and the 2 GB is reduced from 39 too 17 quid

I use a Tamron 90mm 2.5 AF macro and its a superb lens. I picked it up from the UK for 120quid Money well spent i believe.
Keep an eye out for the Vivitar series one and the Kiron 100mm Macros also I have read they are just as good and you can pick them up for not much money.
