Lol! Where did they all COME from?

They're actually quite good, but you need a manual flash gun to trigger them. Pre-flash fools them. I used one to supplement an old Miranda CD700 (bounced) with a bit of side lighting in this 'product shot.'

No. 1 for me. The composition is nice, and it's clean and sharp.

Good one Stefan. I'm sure if people still aren't convinced, they can elect to be strip searched or, simply, not fly. For me, being scanned at an airport is no more an infringement of my civil liberties than having to show my passport.

I passed over commenting on the colour version... didn't really grab my attention. But the black and white is much better, IMO... becomes more 'formal'. The rust was a bit overpowering. I also like shots which contain right angles!

They were probably delighted and surprised someone had the courtesy to ask! I went into St Martins Church (Brum) for some photography last week, but I didn't have the heart to take any pictures, since people were in there sitting in contemplation. Taking photos would have been crass.

(Usually my attitude is 'my ancestors paid for this place through tithes and the sweat of their brow, so I'll jolly well do what I like in here!' but I'm always careful not to spoil the enjoyment on other visitors).

There would always be LCE. I much prefer LCE, given the choice of these two main retailers. If Jessops went, maybe they could extend their reach a bit.

Flying on planes is a Human Right! How dare the airlines intrude upon our civil liberties!

Yeah I'd rather pass through a scanner than have to take my shoes off, get body searched etc. I'm all in favour of measures which stop contraband or explosives being taken across the world on planes. It's a menace.

I haven't seen the internet buzz around the kx reflected in the traditional magazines. Even the Pentaxuser review failed to mention its iso performance! Still, that pana does look a worthy winner, although I wonder if it ought to be judged in a separate class from real slrs. I guess there aren't enough hybrids for that yet.

There's no debate over whether bigger sensors generally offer better IQ.

Some people don't find APS-C > FF enough of an improvement to warrant the extra expense, bulk of equipment etc. I doubt they'll be queuing to buy 645Ds, but that's for a totally different, and pretty exclusive, part of the market.

I'd love to see the Slaughterhouse 5 movie. The book is absolutely brilliant and i've heard the film is a good version.
