there are some of these in store in London, I think at £500
If interested, ask them as they probably have some leeway as to pricing given they've stopped doing them now.

Thanks! One I wasn't expecting to get given they often sell for much more.
I like the fact that they've left space in the case to leave either the camera or teleconverter attached to the lens while its in the case.

Yes indeed. If the exif wasn't present it wouldn't show in Exify or FXiF. Clearly us users can't fix the site but we can apply workarounds such as these to show it easily, in fact easier than the site's system even if that worked as intended (and on other sites too which don't have a method to show it at all.)

It works for me on Win7, 64 bit albeit slowly.
There's an old thread about this issue here
See if that helps and report back!

What David didn't mention he had an extra hour and a half to kill as the Flying Scotsman became quite late due to a medical emergency on route. Cunning use of that waiting time! Well done.

While the site people will have to fix the site, you can do a bit of self help with Firefox and a couple of add-ons.

Exify will show image details like this:

and FxIF like this:

Hope that helps for now. Perhaps obviously, I've got both installed!

That's a LOT of detail. Are you able to upload a wider shot (35 or 50mm) so I can gauge how far the object is? My mind isn't letting me visualise a distance of 87 metres
Herewith at 40mm.
