This is an example of the difference curved petals make.
DFA 100 -
DFA100WR
(Stefan - please do not misquote me to try to reverse my point.)
If you think it will make a difference in the long run it is cheaper to buy the one you want first time if you can.

I have the odd one and the last few I have opened have waited until my guard was down then frothed up all over the place. They tasted fine though.

Under normal circumstances I'd recommend the DFA100 from Currys here. If you get a good one it is a remarkable lens at an absolute steal of a price, but check the thread in general chat. You pays your money and you takes your chance.

I'd like to go back to the cold war.
I think Mutually Assured Destruction is much more representative of the human condition than all the dodgy "peaces" we have today.
It was also a much better environment for engineering.
Of course there were lots more Vulcans and their friends then too.

I agree with your comment about graphics cards but the processor (and it's related peripherals, principally amount and speed of memory) can make quite a difference. Processing a picture does involve quite a lot of "number crunching" and if you have been out and shot four or five hundred RAW in a day, it can make a lot of difference.Just like a desktop, graphics cards can be integral or separate.

It's chorizo weekend at Oggy towers. I bought two for the price of one a while ago and they are getting close to their date so tonight's tea is pork and BBQed chorizo burgers, tomorrow we are having paella and on Sunday, chicken with chorizo and chick peas.
What's everyone else having?

What's black and white and eats like a horse?
A Zebra.
What goes "clip"?
A one legged horse.
What do you call a frog on water skis?
Toad.
Be careful of an offer of a cheap violin. It might be a fiddle.
...and so the long day wore on...

At Oggy towers we BBQ during BST and curry during GMT.
(Note to self - try more fish curries.)
* one of the essential food groups along with alcohol, chocolate etc.
