It's so awkward using those buttons on the BACK of the camera! I would put some sort of toggle on the front of the grip.

Nice shot, the combination works well.

Very generous of you, as even with fungus the lens still has value.

The images are cropped way too heavily to be honest... all the problems with noise, purple fringing etc would be expected in a 1:1 crop - which these basically are! You have made a decent stab in the last shot, but you can't really crop this much and expect decent quality. Need to get closer!

Very nice, I like the processing very much. Kind of like underwater lomography. The colours are superb but there black and white shots work really well too.

The superiority of the f1.7 is something you might spot if you tested the two lenses side by side, but as Matt says, in actual usage it's a fine little lens - I've used it wide open with nice results.

For 'bounce flash' in normal sized rooms, it can be quite easy setting up your camera and flash in M mode... the light is so dispersed the distance from camera to subject hardly matters, so you don't have to change the settings much at all.

I just go to 'recent activity' but when I see something in the Classifieds I do exactly the same as you do, Stan! Fortunately the item has usually sold by the time I decide to make an offer!!
