Is that an extension cable, or a type A to type B cable?

7dayshop do these:

which I think should work. You'd plug the lead from the camera into the adaptor, then the 5m lead from the adaptor to the computer. Should come to £8 including postage.

...and how many AP readers looked at the question and thought "Well, I'm getting better images with my DSLR than I did with my 35mm SLR, but you can get film in 5"x4" sheets, and that's got to be better..."

I like to think I'm a serious user, and have never printed my own photos, never processed my own. I shot slide film (35mm), scanned those and had prints done by a lab. Looking back at those scanned slides, I think they look, quite frankly, nasty compared to what I produce digitally now. All grainy and bleurgh! And that was Velvia. There's a crispness of detail, with a smoothness of out of focus areas that are totally different to film, and I like it that way!

Hey Tom, thought just yesterday that we hadn't heard from you in a while! Excellent shots again - that diffuser seems to do the trick.

Well done for getting the drinking ant.

Keep them coming!

Ooh, just thought, it would also allow people to comment on the pics too.

You could even use Blogger - it's a simple, customisable way of people posting to a website. You would have various ways then of searching for images in the gallery (month posted, artist, keyword etc) and if the photographer wanted to add info about the picture, they could do that easily too. Each member could have their own log-in.

I've done one for a mural artist, and it blends in nicely with the rest of his site: www.morethanart.co.uk/blog

Just a thought...

I bet he got them for a knock-down price!

Sorry, I'll shut up again.

Many of them, yes. Other's, no.

Personally, I'm more than happy with the EX's that I have.

I got mine from Picstop, and I've sent you a PM.

Regarding my earlier cryptic message...

Monday night I got the usual email from Amazon saying "Why don't you buy this...", which I deleted, but then thought "Oh, I'll just have a look". They showed a K110D at £299, which I realised was a good price, so I clicked the link and had a browse.

K10D, body only, from £468.07 new, it said. "Excuse me?" I thought, but sure enough, Calumet Photographic had the K10D listed at this price (which is £549 less VAT - I'm guessing that as a 'Pro' dealer they're used to quoting prices less VAT all the time). Having practically made my mind up to get one anyway, and as C1 was now compatible, I obviously jumped at the chance.

Half expected a call/email to say they'd made a mistake, but nothing - and the camera arrived today...

Now I realise the really kind thing to do would have been to come on here Monday night and point you all in the right direction, but I thought that one or two orders at this obviously wrong price might get honoured - a whole flood of orders and they'd probably cancel the lot.

I was selfish, I'm sorry.

But it's a dog eat dog world, so don't come crying to me. Besides, I won't hear you, I'll be playing with my new toy.

And sorry to Chris at SRS, I'd decided to buy from you until this came up.
