Great shots Snootchies, Im not really keen on the zoom shot but I love the Lancaster.

I think they mean will it fit in the parking bays and if they have a stairway high enough. Clif I went over there once and they changed runways taking off and landing at the furyhest point from me. Great shot of the Virgin.

Thanks for that tip cliff, Itook these shots last Thursday from the aviation veiwing park.

My Pentax 17-70mm is welded to my K20 now, I don't carry my camera bag round anymore just put spare SD cards and batteries in my pocket and away I go.

I've just bought the K20D and a 17-70mm SDM from SRS, a perfect combo for me, and the IQ is fantastic. I'll probaly think about a K7 when the K8 comes out.

I agree wholeheartedly with what all the forum members have said about SRS,and if I stay with Pentax I will carry on buying all my gear from them. But what the hell are Pentax or is it Hoya calling the shots playing at, during this finacial crisis other industries like car makers etc. are holding or reducing prices to keep their loyal customers. I don't mind paying the inevitable annual increase of a few quid but this increase on lenses is rediculas. AS a retired person I have to save up long and hard to buy my gear but the 60-250mm looks like it's getting out of reach. As for SRS I hope they continue suplying us with the brilliant service that is almost imposible to find anywhere else,

Nice shots Philstaff, I love old cars, where was that show?

I was up at Leyland truck Museum to-day and this baby took my eye, available for hire at £250 an hour.

Day is all right for me But 11-00am is more in my line by the time I come to and then a 1 hour drive, plus we'll be shooting into the sun before noon.
