The guidelines are there, please keep Classified threads to be buying/selling process. Members are not daft, they can judge for themselves. PU doesn't get involved in sales/wants, so it's entirely Caveat Emptor, just like a newspaper ad I suppose.

If you have any serious doubts, then a PM to me or one of the other mods, but we've probably already noticed it.

I think if we did restrict people from advertising from the start then it's right that we would likely miss some real opportunities. If a relative left me some cameras I had no idea about, I wouldn't spend 30 days on here waiting till I could offer them.

Just be careful as we always should be. So far there has not been a serious problem, as far as we know.

Back to the subject, off topic diversion removed. Do please start the thread about memory cards in the appropriate section.

Please don't start casting aspertions without evidence guys...just everyone, as always, proceed with suitable acknowledgement that all sales on here are requiring application of the principle of caveat emptor.

A repair would likely cost a high proportion of a new lens, considering the price that SRS are offering the WR version for.

I tried to open a lens once, be warned there can be lots of pesky ball bearings and small springs to unleash themselves at you....putting them back is a trick in itself.

As in the other thread, I thought 5.5x. Axtually, this is going to get confusing with two threads, so I'll close this one and perhaps we can move the discussion to the other one?

Actually it's 5.5x so it goes from about 22mm, again, at least according to the published info. That would make it the same size as the Q sensor.

I wish manufacturers would stop using this method and just tell us the size in mm. That we could easily get to grips with.

The crop factor is I suppose a useful bit of data as well, seeing there are so many different sensor sizes.

Refconverter-A is a right-angle finder. Magnifier Fb is the magnifying eyepiece, but you need to flip that up to view the whole screen.

Obviously I was under the impression that it did Chris, so it seems there was just an error.

If it doesn't, then I'm pleased that the information is now corrected.

That was probably The Beano Algi.

I think Ken is right that Today was the first real colour newspaper, although as I recall it was a while beforee the colour started to look anything like good.

Magazines experimented with simple colour in the late 1800s, usually by using a second wash of coloured ink on flowers or a similar subject.

Even in the 1950s colour separations were so expensive that European and british magazines shared shots. The magazine Colour Photography was largely printed in black and white.
