Liz got an early Christmas Box, won £40 on the bonus ball draw at the camera club, off topic but it proves photography can be profitable

Like the B&W conversion. Last time I was at the Roman Wall was 195X, it hasn't changed much

I am getting on fine with the new Pentax X but having difficulty finding a suitable case. There are plenty to see on line but am sceptical whether they will be a good fit i.e. I don't want it too large nor too small as I won't carry anything extra in it. Preferably I'd like to go to a shop and see the case and determine quality etc. Any help in this would be much appreciated.

I don't think so Barrie, but when it stops raining I'll go into the garden and test everything out and see what happens.

Is it ball creep or zoom creep Stan as the head is rated to 15kg
I'll have to check for zoom creep but the lens as far as I recall was level. I had the main control knob and friction knob as tight as I could get them.

Sample of what I was taking, middle of lens on abbey but it "dropped" so middle of lens was at about half way between abbey and church. unstraightened pic

Yes, using the tripod foot. Will have to look at the longer plate.

Wow Barrie !! Just a bit more than I was looking for. If I used the lens a lot more I'd have no hesitation but the lens is probably the least used of those I have
