I asked Paul about the grip last night and this was his reply.
If I am out of line posting it here then let me know paul but it may get you a sale

hi i've got it listed on ebay. I paid £98 for it new, so looking for anything around £80-£85 as it's had little use, plus is supplied with a battery (copy) and a 1GB SD card.

It's got a few watchers on ebay so let me know if you're defo interested.

Thanks!

Paul

Additional note:
K10D - when using bracketing (esp for HDR), you should use a remote release. If you use the shutter you have to press it once for each bracketed shot.

If you keep your finger on the button it will fire off 3 shots in sequence.

Hi Mannesty
Hate to correct you. Just fired some bracket shots. Set of 3: o, +2, -2.
Adjustment while holding bracket button and dial 3 or 5 bracket choice with rear wheel and 0.5, 1,1.5 or 2 brackets using front dial. This was on my K20D set in custom menu for 0.5 EV spacings (alt is 0.3). Thats probably clear as mud! See P 129 in the manual.
cheers

I must remember to take one of the side in future for identification purposes but there were no leaves on it, just the buds you see from above..

We went to the bird sanctuary at El Hondo yesterday, spent 30 mins driving there to be told by a couple of twitchers that all the birds left last week after the heavy rain.
Just my luck ...

Still, at least we managed to give the mossies a meal while we were there.

Peter, do they have a "proper" air show at the Murcia airport or do you know of one within travelling distance?
I see there is a speedboat race round Alicante in a week or so which I will probably go and have a look at.

I also have a question about bracketing on the K10D.
I would like to do +/-2, is this possible with 3 images or does it have to be 5?

I use my Tamron 24-135mm quite a bit.
I find it quite useful and the IQ is not bad at all.

Would like to see some of your shots of aircraft with the DA* 300mm some time, I am undecided which long lens to buy atm.
