Chip Butty + Cheese or Monster Omelette are recommended!

I'd be up for it but would be a late confirmation.

As far as I know there are only 3 wide angle zooms available at present?

Sigma 10-20 at £329

Pentax 12-24 at £739
Tamron 10-24 at £349

These are all new prices of course and you do see 2nd hand ones occassionally. I'd keep an eye on the classifieds here.

I have the Pentax 12-24 but the price was considerably lower than that 3 years ago when I bought it. If I was buying today I'd possibly lean towards the Sigma, though you may have to try a couple of those to make sure you get a good one.

It's also worth checking out what Samyang are producing, I think at the moment they have an 8mm Fisheye and also a 14mm wide angle lens, these are usually cheaper than the above though only autofocus.

I've created 3 photobooks with Blurb and have been very happy with the high quality everytime. I wouldn't use anyone else.

I picked Blurb initially because I wanted to have nearly 200 pages in one book and at the time they we're one of the few that weren't limited to a small number of pages.

I use Photobox for calendars and I'm happy with their printing, though obviously this isn't the same as a book.

I don't know much about birds tbh, but after many visits to the local RSPB with a grand total of ZERO shots of note I'm very impressed with these.

Merry Christmas

How long does it normally take to process the refund on the part exchange? I'm only asking as you will have had my K10D back for a few days and haven't heard anything?
