same question for the harrogate, leeds, york area?

looking at websites doesn't tell me much

echoing marklj you've been unfortunate in being faced by a little hitler type PC who is being less than diplomatic.

as much as we all know, we cannot be required to delete images for anyone, however, there is provision in PACE for items constituting evidence to be seized to stop the evidence being altered, lost or tampered with.

yes, you could save it to disc and provide a statement to that effect, its no different to when CCTV evidence is seized, however if you can't cut it to disc, then seizing the phone for examination is the next option.

so strictly speaking, the PC was within their powers to seize that item, but their approach sucked and they should be aware of their examination/seizure/production options before going that road.

and @dougf8, in this particular example, a PC wouldn't need a court order to seize the item to retain evidence.

lucky boy.

I wanna swap places

hi darren,

yes payment recieved thanks. this'll go out once I get back from london. I'll let you know once it's gone.

for the day when eventually something gets on the angled mirror in the camera, what do I clean it with?

LCD/plasma screen cleaning liquid and a q-tip?
lens brush?
the other end of the lens brush to wipe of dirt?

something specialised? if I use any of the above will I damage it?

I'm not talking about the sensor here, but the angled mirror.

Needing to get a circular polarising filter. Note I didn't say 'which is the best' in scratchy whiny voice. I'll have to work my way up to the premium stuff later. I'm after a reasonable filter that does the job, isn't cheap rubbish that breaks or scratches but also, I'm not paying a premium over the top.

I'm staggered at the range available and the range of prices. everything from £10 to £130.

makes range from

hoya
vivitar
heliopan
sigma
xit
fujiyama
green
kood
inov8
kenko

etc

I can't spring £100+ for a filter, but then I suppose the age old adage, you get what you pay for. are there any makes of filter I should just not consider? and conversely, which ones are worth the dollars?

sold pending payment.

Forgot to add this to my other post so separate topic.

I have a nice example of the DA L 55-300 ED for sale. This was sourced originally split from a kit so no box or paperwork but is 2 years old and in excellent condition with original pentax lens cap and end cap. This lens was never provided with a hood originally, however I have a plastic hood that suits perfectly. Also comes with a kenko UV filter.

£135 inc RMSD within the UK. overseas postage on top, PM me for costs. Buyer to pay paypal fees or will take a cheque but cheque must clear.

If bought with my DA21mm limited will knock £10 off the price.

Photos to come shortly
