I can't believe people are waiting for the return of what - in my opinion - was the worst 'camera' shop chain ever to open in England. They bought out so many 'real' photography shops and turned them into 'happy snapper' stores!

I hope they never return!

Long live the 'independents'

An awful camera shop is still a camera shop... I've always felt quite lucky that Bradford had a Jessops at one end of the city and an independent camera and print shop at the other... I used both for bits and pieces, gifts and printing services... Generally the independent shop is (was) more knowledgable (especially in terms of Pentax gear) but for some items Jessops range made them a much better option...

I'm still on V4's (although I only have one receiver now due to 'droppage') and find them pretty reliable. Had one issue when I first got them when shooting outside but swapping the batteries for AAA-Eneloops solved the problem

Yep, four hours after launch and it's still not up... Reckon someone's made a royal c**k up!

Seriously.... I just watched that countdown for like the last hour (on the gallery laptop while I use mine) and nothing's happening!!!

Let's hope the new Jessops is like the Jessops we all used to know and love.

They were good weren't they... (sighs of whimsey...)
