Discussions on politics and religion can easily go out of hand! I think I've had two posts removed so far, which I think was fair enough.
Or maybe it's just because I have experienced managing different kinds of forums over the years, so I can relate in a way.

I've used the camera with the grip over 90% of the time.

Would have sold it on eBay, but I'd rather someone here in the forums take over the kit (and that eBay will get a good chunk off of the purchase). Rest assured, the kit has been properly taken cared of.
The items are:
* Samsung GX-10 DSLR Camera (with mount cap, strap, and cables boxed with manuals)
* Samsung SBG-D1V Battery Grip (with contact points cap, boxed)
* 2x Samsung SLB-1674 (with battery caps, and a charger)
* Samsung Xenon 18-55 Kit Lens
Here are photos of the kit:

Again the kit with all boxes

And here's the kit lens

My asking price is £220 including parcel delivery. All the items will be shipped in their respective retail boxes, all together in a single big box. Payment via PayPal Gift.
Again, this item is in excellent used condition. Was actually hoping to use it next weekend, alas looks like last week was the last time I was to use this.

If I buy something, I expect it to perform as 100% as advertised, with no niggles whatsoever.
To me, the actual niggles are the very limitations of the camera, then I will workaround it (example being the exposure control on M lenses, Pentax never claimed it would work perfectly, or AF in general).

The photos themselves speak louder than anything else. Thanks for sharing, they are truly moving, and if I could justify summing it all up in one word: scary.
May I ask if anyone here would know if there is a gallery of photos from 9/11 here in he UK, preferably in London?
