Me too. I started on a BSA 250 and have been known to warm my backside in a chair.

Question - who slipped the super motard into the classic race in Pic 1?

Thanks for posting Transit - good stuff.

New Zealand, motorcycle racers--- Ah, Graeme Crosby.

Excellent work Judith Ann. My favourite is the first one.

I bought mine from this seller. It arrives as a gift. He is very reliable with good communication.

It halves the AF speed of the 50-135 lens!

Is that using screwdrive or SDM, and when you say it halves the speed, do you mean it takes longer, or several attempts.

TIA.

No contest past a 2x crop (equals about 3.6MP on a K20D/K-7 sensor), a longer lens will win due to the reduction in pixel count.

In fact I try to keep below a 2x crop if at all possible, 1.5x gives around a 6MP image which is probably a practical limit, certainly for A3 prints.

That's what I would have thought and is my reason for having the 150-500. The 60-250 is without doubt a very good lens, but only within it's own constraints.

So emptying the buffer faster has no bearing on how long it takes to fill up?

(Wonders off to re-learn 30 years worth of engineering.)

D'Oh!!

Anyone got a FA50 1.4 or 1.7?

Yes. I have a habit of using "-" as a delineator , but I can see how it could be misinterpreted on this occasion.

Glad you made it back. Did you ever make the mistake I did? Got on a plane at Jeddah at midnight - 30 deg C, jeans and a t-shirt. Got to Gatwick at seven in the morning - minus one deg C and snowing.

Clicky.

Appears to be an IR remote control ap for mobile devices. I have virus scanned it and it is clean, but I have nothing to try it on so I don't know if it works.
