I took about 30 pictures of her in a minute the day I got my 50mm F/1.4
This was the very last one, and I think she was saying
"Leave me alone. I have claws."

I read an article a while ago stating how theres a drug that can assist in fighting cancer, but the patent ran out so no companies will produce it, knowing that they wont recieve ridiculous amounts of money for it (since they are not the only ones who can produce it)

Thats the thing - if other drug companies could make the same drug, the prices go way down (because they can) and so the companies dont make enough money as they want to.

Im actually very proud of this, and it looks awesome printed (I prefer the B&W, so I printed that)

I did think about B&W but I really like the colors involved in this, sets a dark mood on the tree.

Oh go on then..

My 10-17mm fisheye arrived today, so I took a trip down to the beach
However our beach is useless for photos, unless theres a nice sunset on, which there wasnt - so instead I trekked through the dunes and found a nice tree! Lucky me Hah.

You could find things to sell. How about the cat?

Are the samsung ones actually no different apart from the badge?
I really think so - apart from the badge, colour and pattern on the grip. No one has come up wih any evidence that there's more difference than that. I got one myself (as well as the Tamron).

Curry's have them at £29.87 !!!!!!!! "subject to availability".
Yeahhh I checked a radius of about 50miles from here and my dads work
hahahaha
none in stock

And how could I ever sell my cat! Shes adorable
I might post a picture now actually haha, shes so cute

Oh and also, how can I tell the difference between an autoexposure lens and a manual exposure lens?

Thanks iceblinker.

Its just im taking a trip with my parents to Ras Al-Khaimah, one of the emirates in UAE about an hour or two outside Dubai. I want a reasonably long lens but on a budget, since ive just bought my fisheye. I was looking at the 50-200mm, is this tamrom 70-300mm a better option? Or would I be better off with a lower range, upto around 100 or 150?
The longest lens I have currently is my kit lens, 18-55. Hah.
Id mostly be shooting people, and places, so a very long lens isnt necessary.

Does anyone have any experience with this lens? Is it good? How old is it? Will it work fine with my K100D? (Lots of questions I know..)
Found it used, condition stated "Almost as new" - £59
Any help would be useful, even suggestions of similar focal length, better lenses?
