Well in theory you would change it I sippose, but in practice I'd set the middle ground as an average.

If you knew you were going to use the lens pretty much at one setting for a session then that is where it could be set.

Jessops would get you one in to look at, or at least they used to, don't know if they still will!

I hadn't thought about the Billingham range, the Hadley is the size and style I was thinking about. Are there any good stockists in the North-West?
Jacobs and Jessops are both stockists. The thing about the Hadley type design is that the bags are quite slim and tuck well into the body. This makes them less obtrusive and more secure when travelling.

The crunpler bags I have seen have had huge gaps around the cover flap that would do nothing to keep the rain out. Personally I don't think they are a good design.

For good construction, good protection and ease of access I use the Billinghma Hadley and Alice bags.

The Samsung and pentax lenses are the same, but I haven't seen the samsung version on offer anywhere so far.

The SRS price for the Pentax 10-17mm seems very reasonable.

It will be interesting to see what everyone thinks of that, George. The idea certainly has merit.

I suppose it depends on whether or not the winner perceives the judging as a tedious job or enjoys it.

On the other hand, if Lilly and others deserve to win then they deserve to win and take the consequences! Those who don't want to win enter at their peril (if they're good...)

I will post up the next challenge ASAP, gird your loins folks!
Dr Mhuni thank you. An excellent appraisal indeed.

Lilly, well done again! There's no stopping you, we'll have to get a whole lot better...

Loins suitably girded, let's have the next one. Sunday finish as usual please, so a day or so shorter to think this week.
