170-500 sold and on its way. thanks very much Martyn a pleasure to deal with you.
10-20 no longer for sale.

i would suggest the idea behind 5 maybe "tree houses", did you take them from opposite SS Great Britain and rebuild them on the downs . 3 & 4 are excellent, those cranes certainly make a great subject and you have done them well. i also have real liking for the processing of the Balloons and feel it would look good as a large piece of wall art. not so keen on Manchester i feel they are quite ordinary in comparison to the Bristol shots. all the aforesaid purely my personal views and tastes

so Stu you would rather they throw it out there to keep you happy and then suffer the indignity of a recall when problems arise as per Volkswagon, Vauxhall, Toyota etc etc. anyone with any sense at all will know the delay is to ensure the product works as it should with no embarrassment to both the user or Ricoh . anyway did they not say somewhere that it was to carry out improvements they felt were required ? if so that is all you need to know.

Martyn , you have a pm

price reduction bump
Sigma 10-20 now £160 inc p&p,

thanks Tim

thanks for all the comments. David, it does get a bit spooky in there around the end of the season, last week of October. the upper corridors are quite dark by 3:30 with the odd bat flying through as well, makes some of the visitors jump on the last tour of the day.

thank s for that Nigel, Photomatix has a deghosting selection you can use once it has combined the shots which would sort out a bit of wind or camera movement and it does it very well. you can select the areas where movement has occurred so it has no affect on the rest of the image.

payment received , lens posted and on the way. thanks Tim. a pleasure doing business with you.

liking all these, 2 being my personal favourite. the in camera process does appear to be quite good ,will have to try it in a comparison with Photomatix. how many exposures does the camera use Nigel?
