Actually, there was an item on Radio 4 (Material World) recently which explored "powdered" water. Basically you spin H2O with silicone in nothing more than a domestic Magimix and end up with a fine powder of water bonded to the silicone. Squeeze it and out comes the water! Been around for years, trouble is no-one can think of anything useful to actually do with it!! (Maybe filling up empty boxes !)

Of course I had to go all the way (which may not be an appropriate use of words, come to think of it.) Like Davex, I also need counselling, or maybe just a couple of bottles of Merlot. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!! DON'T GO THERE!!

I have several items for sale (the photo's seem to have acquired a pink cast; rest asured the items are in normal black/silver condition). First up is a P/KA adapter, which is in excellent condition and allows full aperture control of the lens from the camera:







Price for this is £50 including shipping to UK address.

Next I have a SP 300mm, which is in excellent condition bar some internal dust, which is to be expected for the age and doesn't effect the image:










Price is £75 including UK shipping.

Finally, I have a SP BBAR 2x converter again in excellent condition:













Price is £50 incl UK delivery. I am happy to discount for multiple purchases - £10 off for two items, £20 off for three. I will also accept returns if there are any problems. All items will be very securely packaged. Payment by bank transfer or Paypal gift.

PM me if interested and please leave a note referring to the item(s) on this thread. Thanks for looking.

Another vote for the 16-45mm. Very sharp.

But John, you're only going to get one of your images loaded if you have self-selected by loading one of someone elses! If someones not happy about it, then all they have to do is watch!! This is a good idea and should provide a rolling showcase of the forum's work (without too much verbage - whoops!)

Next up is thougthon, by the way

Showing my age, but Joy Division's Atmosphere comes to mind (shot by a photographer!)

Thanks Matt, I thought that should be the case. And apologies again to boudou for hi-jacking the thread.

This bokeh behaviour is something I've noticed on the 50-135mm. Still my best lens, though Nice shots.

Apologies for jumping the thread, but hopefully this is a useful question. The markings on these old flashes, e.g. 35mm, 50mm etc. obviously referred to the focal length of the old film lens. Do we apply the crop factor when shooting on digital, e.g. set it at 35mm when we are using a focal length of 24mm?
