Quite a nice focal length too... I had the 'M' version for a while... Now have the FA28 which is my widest AF-prime and always makes the bag...

I picked the same lens up from the same place (I shop there often)a while back... It's quality.

For those in the west yorkshire area and the Bradfordians among us (of which there are a few...)...

'The' camera shop on North Parade currently has a Samsung100mmMacro lens and a K100 with twin kit in the secondhand window as well as a fair few 35mm slr's...

Sorry if this is the wrong page mods...

Another who'd go with the kit lens on that budget... It's pretty small, goes wide and goes tight and considering you'll probably go B&W for street (doesn't everyone?) it'll do just fine!!

Stick it in AVmode at f8 and bump up the ISO so you always have a fast shutter speed (1/500 or more) if shooting from the hip use '11-point auto' AF...

Just spent 10 minutes in the gents, stood at the hand dryer in my boxers and socks drying my trousers... Looked like I'd wet myself when I got into work!!
Got a few funny looks but managed to convice those who entered that I'm only slightly mental...

Moral is... Waterproof trousers for the school-run tomorrow...

Tell them you use an RM-Nimbus and you only really work in DOS so you really don't have a problem...

I've never had one of these calls! What companies are ringing? Is this a recent scam?
