I have loads of old 49mm filters I don't use that I'll gladly donate to the cause... PM me. K.
That's what this forum's all about

For info Carl/Stuey - the hood protrudes 3.5mm... So you'd want an old filter that width to give clearance for the filter holder ring. The '15mm rules my mind' thread on the US forum reports this allows use of a lee filter system with wide angled adapter rings... And no vignetting. I've not seen any reports on whether it works with the hi tec 100mm system. Do these have wide angled adapter rings as well?

Nice to see you posting again Stephen.. I can sympathise about not getting time for photography

Like these very much, and I can see why the second was used on Calendar. Great stuff

Nice varied set

'Gatehouse Mist' is my pick - love this sort of shot

Like the 4th one - but would prefer to see them with some space in between- really confuses the eye with them joined together

+ 1

Carl took the words from my fingers

#4 is my favourite of these

You really are very good at this sort of thing

Terrific set. Particularly love the treecreeper and the jay (which really 'pops').

I'm v. interested in this thread, as I need to replace my PC, currently creaking badly when using lightroom 4.

Anyone got advice on what spec machine I should be looking for to get a decent setup for lightroom etc?

Feel free to cover the basics - I used to be relatively up-to-date with this sort of stuff, but it seems to have been leached out of me and transferred to my teenagers. And don't ask why I'm asking the forum for advice rather than them

Astonishingly good if you were right at the back of the MEN.

#1 is a particularly great shot and incredibly clean - really shows what the combo can do.

Have to say I keep seeing #3 as the 'audience member's fist in the groin reaction shot'. Sorry

EDIT: Oops. K10D beat me to the... punch

Very neat and impressive flexibility in terms of supporting the K5. Before your 'random sprinkles' series I'd assumed these were only really suitable for compacts etc, but obviously not
