Yes Yes Yes Peter. I never welcome anyone - not because I am a GOM, it's good to see new people joining, but because I don't like the idea of using those sort of posts to build up my 'click count'. One of my original reasons for suggesting that 'Post Numbers' should be dropped was precisely this - and the way I think they can intimidate new members.

Have received the Samyang 500mm, today. Good fast delivery from Poland to New Zealand. Looks like a half decent lens. Am looking forward to trying it out over the next week.

Will report back on how it goes.
Any News?

I never had any qualms about shooting in the rain prior to WR, obviously being sensible enough to keep the toys in their case until the last moment.

Last winter I was caught in an unexpected sleet and snowstorm with the K20D and wished I'd had another camera to photograph it covered in snow and icicles forming on it!

I suspect people are more worried about getting themselves wet rather than their kit but Pentax have that covered too

My latest piece of personal WR kit, bought from a Pro Dealer so no doubt with a two year warranty, arrived a couple of days ago...

Quite right - I used to take shots in North Sea Near Gales and that was back in the daus of SFXn ! Over time I think it has perished the rubber grip though:

Thanks bb2 - did you get hit by any UK Tax costs? What did the total bill inc carrage come to?

Just to lower the tone - could you bring me back a Pentax 1.7 Teleconverter. I have a few contacts there and will dig them out
