I agree with Dan on this. Change as often as you need to. if you agonise about getting dust in the works then just buy a 18-300 and be done with it.

Dust will not ruin your camera if you are sensible when you change lenses, and you give the lenses and body a quick spruce-up when you get home. if you get dust on the sensor and it is in your shots you can clone it out very easily.

Zooms are very convenient in many circumstances, but there is nothing better than setting off with a bag of primes to photograph your scenes.

Mine doesn't , but I wouldnt worry about it.

I will wait till they bring out a "pro" version.

Hihi from me.

Hi Carlos

While it is clear that the seller has made a bit extra on the trade by overcharging for postage (as a lot do), and it is annoying that it was not sent by the stated method, I have to agree with Tooks that it isn't worth the hassle.

I always assume that there will be some "gravy" in it for the seller on the postage charges and just count that as a cost of buying the item. I would just make a note not to buy from that seller again.

Congratulations to Ralf for a superb entry again (wonderful colour), and to all who entered. Thanks too to the good Dr. for excellent judging.

I actually thought mine was a bit weak, it was a last minute attempt and I didn't give it my full attention. I will have a go at cleaning it up a bit as you suggest.

I think this is one of the strengths of this competition, we are all encouraged to try that little bit harder.

Never mind what film, i want to know how many times you will look at the back of the camera after taking a shot.
