Quite a difficult subject this week, unless you routinely visit 'gigs' or own something interesting such as a 1954 Fender Stratocaster.

Presumably you can take things in to be sold rather than having to part exchange them :

I did some panoramic printing at work recently from an image that was stitched together from 4 photographs (841mm x 250mm approximately).

However I used an HP Plotter that prints A1 lengthwise with a theoretical maximum length of 90m

If you get totally stuck at home, you could try a print shop with large size printers / plotters.

I would drive to Watford and try out the Pentax DA 10-17 and the DA 16 -45.

Or you could add your Christmas lens buying allowance to your birthday allowance

You are right to be proud of your efforts.

We never liked the idea of having to go to Greenham Common and had a lot of empathy with the protesters but it was part of the job at the time.

Presumably living in Wantage, your other half is a physicist of some sort :

Apologies to RobE17 for hijacking the thread again.

I am not sure that there would be much point in upgrading to the Mark 11 lens.

If the DA* 16 - 50 is a bit beyond your current budget, the DA 16 - 45 is a highly regarded lens at a very reasonable price.

Edit: John beat me to it whilst I was still typing (very slowly).

Gwyn, are you serious :

We had to run the gauntlet of the protesters every time we arrived for a meeting

It was a very spooky place to hold meetings, knowing that there were nuclear missiles just yards away in the underground silos
