I have various bit and pieces that will provide a stand if I need it, and a flash bracket that will provide swivel when wanted.

It will be nice to have a play with the PTTL though and all for less than £100!

Thanks for that Brian.
Been thinking of getting one for a bit now but with various other flashes at home, it's a bit hard to justify the cost. I just managed to, for under a £100!

Dont really want one with twist grip locks.. I have heard these can be a pain.
They can be a pain. I've got an old Cullman 741 with twist locks and they can be a bit slow to operate at times. Mind you they do make the monopod more compact and easier to stow in a rucksack.
It also held up my tent one night, when the poles were left behind!

There is this on ebay at the moment:- link
It is for the Zenitar in M42 BIN price £115.54 with free post.

This is for Zenitar with a K mount BIN £112.42 with free post.

Just saw these after reading your thread. Can't think why the K mount is cheaper?

the Eucalyptus leaf and fly distract somewhat from the blooms
I think the leaf puts the flowers in context but the colour version is better for number 1.

Number 2 looks good both in colour and nearly mono, the water drops are more prominent somehow. The cropping is a bit odd though.

When ever I have bought/sold through this forum I make a point of leaving a 'public thanks' on the thread, as many others do. This is both polite and confirms a good mutual trade to others.

This isn't ebay and generally a trade on the classifieds is a trade between friends.
If there is a problem, the best place to sort it out is via personal messages, in private.
