Whatever is a good offer is allowed, but it is worth checking around as it can be of advantage.

I buy from SRS as much as I can because of the exemplary service. I also buy from other sources from time to time.

I would check the prices carefully vs SRS. I looked at the 200mm f/2.8, which was £623.20 after the discount, but only £599 on the SRS website.

A lovely shot with some gorgeous textures and colours.

The K-3 is brilliant, but there may be lots of people who can't afford to have a K-3 and a K-1. Something has to give to upgrade to FF.

The first one has some visible vignetting, suggesting it might be the zoom. The second one is wider and you have approached closer to the subject, changing the perspective. This is probably the prime, but it doesn't seem to have the expected bending at the edges for it to be a fish-eye.

I think she needs to be a bit more specific as her needs could vary between a smartphone and a medium format camera....

What does she want to achieve? Perhaps a visit to a camera shop might help, so handle a wide variety of cameras.

Always use a lenshood, regardless. As fr metering, I meant the camera would meter as designed to. With IR, we never know how much IR light is p[resent anyway, so there is a certain amount of trial and error.

I've not seen this yet, but I'll have a look while we're out this afternoon.

I rotate three batteries, never totally exhausting any one of them.

We've started using Costco, who provide very nicely done 18" x 12" prints for around £2.00 each.
