Will ABP block it? Windows 7? I am reluctant to visit my Photobucket page, as I know it is a pain to remove.

To be totally pedantic about this .
Hello is actually the American spelling of hallo, dating from 1833, when it was first seen in print in the American book The Sketches and Eccentricities of Col. David Crockett, of West Tennessee.
So to be truly English about it you should spell it hallo, as the Dutch and Germans do. It comes from old German in any case.
Hi was first recorded as being used in the speech of a Kansas Indian. Based on hey or hy, from middle English, from about 1475.

Thanks for the heads up. Guess I won't be accessing my Photobucket account today.
Hopefully Photobucket are aware of this problem and will deal with it.

Your fingers are obviously fitter than mine Daniel. I get cramp in my fingers after a couple of minutes holding that button down, and it plays hell with the arthritis .

Otrlieb do a camera bag for on the handlebars, and also one with optional harness that you carry on your chest. They are 100% waterproof.
Kettler also do a handlebar camera bag, but I don't think it is up to the Ortlieb ones.
I would rather have the camera against my chest than on my back in case I fell. The camera could do you serious damage, and you could do the camera damage.

John was correct to remove the posts. He has stated why.
We don't need this thread to deteriorate in into the name calling of old.
I only came back because I hoped such name calling and personality clashes were done with. Haven't we all learned from the past unpleasantness?
Please, if you have a problem with a forum member deal with it through the moderators - that's their job.

Nothing wrong with the 10-20. I just don't use it. I don't really like very wide angle landscapes, but that me, I don't have the technique for them, and probably won't get it. No point in owning one just for it to gather dust on a shelf.

On my K20D the Pentax remote only works with Bulb as long as I keep my finger on the button. Could lead to cramp after a while .
There are cheapo remotes which have a lock though.
