Thanks for your reply.

the D and DS2 seem to only be available in the U.S at the moment,
The cheapest I can find the D at is $1095 (about €910)

The DS2 $629 (€523) I don’t have the current Sterling exchange rate.

In the UK the DL seems to run £100 to £150 cheaper than the DS (the cheapest I've found is DL £443 DS £590) With A link in this thread The DL @ €569

So I think the DS2 looks good at the moment
