I have a Vivitar 24mm F2.8 for sale. This is good condition but is unboxed. It has an A lock button so can be used with Aperture priority mode with auto aperture.
Looking for £40 plus p&p - or offers

I have a mint condition boxed Tokina 28-105mm F3.5-4.5 AF205 lens for sale. New price £169. This is a nicely built, quite heavy lense that may may a suitable general purpose lense for someone. Selling as I have other lenses now that cover the range and I am trying to get funds together for an AF 50mm
Offers around £100 plus p&p?
Cheers

If two people exchange loaves of bread, each walks away with what they started with...a loaf of bread....but if two people exchange one idea each...they each walk away with more than what they had when they started with, they each leave with TWO ideas!

Unless both ideas are the same.....

Thanks for all your input guys - clearly not a straightforward situation. Leading on from this....

I was in Cardiff last weekend with the u11s rubgy team I manage. Just as we were elaving I decided to take a team photo outside the Welsh Assembly building - no problem with that. However when we reached our next destination I realised that I had left my rucksack with camera and lenses on the pavement next to an electricity substation. Luckily I rang the hostel where we were staying and the chap there very kindly walked up the road and found that it was still there.

The point of this is that the government seem obsessed with security but a "bomb sized" rucksack left on the pavement proped against an electric substation by the Welsh Assembly Government buildings doesn't seem to have been picked up on security CCTV for 45 minutes....seems a bit worrying - although I was very grateful to find that it was still there

Hardgravity, my point is that these statements seem to help argue the case for the gerneral photographer being able to take street schene photos without risk of harasment from the police.

Looking at the BBC website I came accross an article with the following quotes : -

"Google has always said its service observed UK law and that photos were only taken from public areas...."

Does this mean that all "photographers" should be free to take photos from public places...
The anti-terrorst arguement is a bit lame - could the google live view images not be used by terrorists?

Other quotes :-
"David Evans, the Information Commission's senior data protection practice manager, compared being captured by the service to passers-by filmed on TV news camera."

and most importantly: -
"In the same way, there is no law against anyone taking pictures of people in the street as long as the person using the camera is not harassing people," he said. "

Seems to contradict the action of some police departments!
