This was a poor choice for a new high spec camera, I use one on the K1 many times as it is essential for very low or high level shots and I am surprised at its omission. Something else for the critics to pick on.

This camera has a longer gestation period than an elephant!

Update on my wasp war, despite the battery of wasp nest sprays the most effective treatment was wedging a piece of wood into the entrance of the underground nest.

A dyslexic moment when the title suggested an exotic meal! A handsome bird, nicely caught, and a bird that foretells rain is a bonus.

Woah! Gutted I missed this. Exactly what I’m scrawling the classifieds for today. Lucky/congrats to buyer!!
Did you decide to sell or keep the rear converter in the end?
There is still a deal for a new one on Amazon if you are quick! I am always loathe though to buy lenses from there as I prefer dealer support.

Yikes! All summer I have tolerated a ground nest of red wasps by the side path against my house as they have buzzed busily in and out, avoiding me as they go, except today one stung me on the foot. It really hurts! It turns out that the workers only become a pest after the hatchlings have flown around the end of August so Mrs RobL has gone to the hardware store to see what weaponry they stock.
FLAMETHROWER!!!!!!!
Mrs RobL suggested that but with my luck it would burn the house down!
