Dont' assume it's only people here that buy them, I might have just got the last one for all you know.

Hardly an 'expert', just something I spend a lot of time doing.

Just got off the phone to SRS, should have a new toy tomorrow...

Oh, Peter - I was looking for a good, foolproof excuse to spend £165 on a lens!

Now you've gone and given me a good excuse not to.

Haven't got any araldite, so I'd have to buy that, probably a couple of quid. Think it's beyond economical repair.

Got my 50mm 1.7 SMC-A lens out yesterday, and found that the aperture ring won't turn beyond f/11, so I can't get it round to the 'A'. What am I to do???

Should I ring SRS?

...and I see the 'digital' filters as purely a marketing trick to get people to upgrade from their 'analogue' ones. Anything in front of the last surface of the back element in the lens (the special anti-reflection coating to reduce ghosting from the extra reflective CCD), is as far as I can see no different whatever your medium.

Hmmm, £399 at SRS now.

£399 for a K10D!!!

Did I mention you can get a K10D for £399?

Silly money!

Alchemist,

Are you using a flash when you get these 'orbs'?
