Thanks for taking the time to post your letter Will. Seems like you have countered all points very convincingly there, good job

Sorry, my dog story is still more believable that your Waitrose Well my good wife tried to get a copy in the local Waitrose a little earlier but they were out of stock
Ha... you've admitted yours was a 'story'

I've seen John and Iain's posts in the AP forum (interesting) but I'd still like to have read of Will's now famous letter

Don't be so tight ... I know you are saving for a new lens but a couple of quid wont make much difference. Will do you still have the text of your letter or do I have to go out and purchase a copy of AP?

A thought crossed my mind last night whilst I was using the K200D with it's new focus screen. Maybe it's an unworthy thought, I don't know. Maybe some will take exception, but I'm sure others will agree. The thought was "Wow, this is just like using a real camera".

I sort know what you mean, I don't think I would be without a split prism focus screen now, it adds a further degree of user control that adds more than the cost/value of the part (that's my feeling). [quote:3496ace15f="Anvh"]

Of course it was pretty much indispensable years ago with my C***n AE-1 and now even though I use manual focus probably much less than half of the time its great to have that extra visual confirmation.

I like them both but some how number two conveys more atmosphere and interest for me

That first image is simply superb David, a lovely thoughtful composition, worthy of a large high quality print

I don't really have a favourite focal length, I like working with any to be honest it just depends on the subject I'm shooting. I can say the at the moment the majority are in the range from 16 to 100 mm although that might change a little with future planned purchases
