The office number is in your magazines that you received before your renewal - give them a ring.

I have forwarded your comments and you should hear something, presumably in office hours.

Sorry we can't be with you, it looks a great spot. It's within range as well, but unfortunately Sue is working.

Have a good day and get some good images.

To be honest, I find myself a lot of the time still using Photoshop 7 by preference.

I prefer the File Browser to Bridge and the program istself is faster because presumably it is not quite so demanding of my 1GB of RAM.

CS2 has a couple of nice features and it would score on its handling of RAW files, but otherwise it's just slower.

PS7 is, therefore, my usual editing program. Is this heresy?

I had one of these for several years and it's a fantastic lens. Nothing else quite like it...

However, it is of a nowhere near telecentric design, quite the opposite really, so I would not think particularly good on digital. And very bulky for a 22.5mm-equivalent lens.

But for film, go for it. I would guess for the K version around £350 GBP would be top price on eBay, but it always depends on how much a buyer is willing to pay.

I agree with that - the 18-55 and 70-300 will cover almost every eventuality whilst allowing you to travel fairly light.

I would only go for a wider lens if you are seriously into ultra-wide photography, in which case you will know that already.

I would be quite happy with the two lenses mentioned.
