Looking at buying a new SDHC card & the "class" ratings still doesn't seem to make comparison clear cut.

The Kingston Class 6 8gb SDHC is noticeably cheaper then the Sandisk equivalent, the question is though are card speeds the same ?

thanks

No, the 300AFD is still listed at £49.99.

The 360AFD is £149. At that price I'd go for a proper P-TTL Pentax gun, though.
Your right - obviously mixed up my model numbers, how do people rate the 300AFD, are there any other similiar priced alternatives (I don't do much flash photography but handy to have one just in case)

Just bear in mind that you would be placing a cheapo £4.80 filter infront of £300 of glass - personally wouldn't risk cheap/unknown filters

Nice shot, great "storyteller" - I'd be tempted to crop some of the top section of sky

[quote="Mannesty"]If that shot had the clouds too (you can always add them) it'd be a cracker. quote]

Thanks for the suggestion but not really my thing, if I can't catch it "in-camera" the 1st time I'll keep trying until I can - gives me even more excuse to spend more time in the fresh air than staring at this PC screen !!

My preference for landscapes is very much a natural look, or at least that's what I aim for - having said that every now & again I do "notch up" the polariser & give things a go, same spot on a summer day...

fantastic shots, shame about the watermark although I understand why you've done it. Bet these look great in the original.
Thanks - not happy with the watermarking myself but unfortunately it recently became necessary.

I've printed several of these at 18 x 12 inches & they look fantastic - I think posting landscape shots on the web often don't do them justice, bigger the better !!

Thanks for the comments, sometimes nature really does blow me away & this was one of those times, the weather & lighting were pretty much as good as it gets. This shot shows the fantastic clouds a little better

Seen as I'm trapped inside here in North Wales at the moment by poor weather I thought I would post a couple of shots from last October for some C&C

All comments appreciated
