Dumfries and Galloway is one of my favourite areas

Us too, wonderful place. We had a great time staying in a flat in Kirkudbright about 18 months ago.

I think sometimes our ISPs have problems that cause glitches. I know mine does regarding e-mail, and quite often too. Well, too often anyway.

IE8 and Firefox display the site properly for me here.

I'll lock this thread now, please only post on the same subject once. You are getting two lots of replies about the same thing.

Midges. Beware the midges in summer, they are vicious and have no mercy. A supply of good insect repellant is essential, especially near water, but do keep it out of contact with plastics, including parts of your camera kit!

You can do the wedding with just the 18-55mm and it's not a bad idea to do so for the first one as there's enough going on without worrying about kit. A faster prime lens might be useful, so the 50mm f1.4 will be needed as well. The flashgun for fill in flash outdoors and for use indoors if necessary.

The rest I'd leave behind to avoid confusion. You certainly don't want to be messing with manual focus lenses like the 75-150mm and the Biotar 58mm.

It's not possible to do Scotland in two days, or probably in a lifetime. We've been back many, many times and hope for many more, but still we've only scratched the surface.

If you're feeling pleased with SRS there's no reason why you can't say so. I feel pleased with SRS too - every purchase I make there is a pleasure and Chris and his team have always been very helpful.

Please don't bump after only one day....it's overkill.

Bump if overdone can get a bit tiresome, but it's essentially a way of pulling a thread to the top of the list.

You're easily discouraged guys!

I wonder whether this is something to do with the LV button being accidentally pressed, in which case the mirror will move upwards without taking an image, to allow continuous viewing.
