Thanks guys I will see what the replacement screen cost will be? I'll try apple and the local re seller and see what they say :) I should say it's not the glass part that is fine, it's the screen (pixels) that is damaged!

Howdy!! So on a flight back home to blighty yesterday I thought it would be a smashing idea to try and close my mbp with my ear phones in it! The screen is now busted :( is it worth trying to source a repair, any good places to go or is it apple only or should I scrap it and get a new one...

I like it, I can imagine it in pride of place on a wall. I think it's simplicity makes it work! I hate it because it makes me want to buy some quadras! (assume that's what was used) :)

Top pics Colin! Was a cracking day all round :)

Of to Reims this weekend which means my first Eurostar trip! How fussy are they re tripods?! Website just says anything that could be construed as a weapon maybe prohibited?! Anyne travelled had issues?

Well the girlfriend is living in Russell square at the moment which just happens to be 5 mins from the flash centre! Nothing beats a practical demonstration :)

Good point well made :)

Thanks Gary. I note that there will shortly be a lithium based battery for quadra soon. Think I will wait for this as they're promising 100% more flashes out of a battery and obviously the package will also be lighter. http://www.elinchrom.com/news.php#120 Still a tough choice :(

Thanks Garry. So one could just whack some pw flex into it and away you go?

What radio triggering system is included in these li-on packs?

What about http://www.warehouseexpress.com/buy-lastolite-40x120cm-hotrod-strip-softbox/p1523957?cm_mmc=GoogleBase-_-flashguns-_-flash-diffusers-_-lastolite-40x120cm-hotrod-strip-softbox_1523957&utm_source=googlebase

Went from a 1 to the new one! Doesn't really feel any different to hold, doesnt really look any different to me. The screen is fabulous though which is what I wanted! Will be ace for photo reviews etc etc

Pulled the trigger, screen was enough for me too upgrade from iPad 1 which I sold y'day! Should be great for showing off pics, and with newsstand and kindle it makes my commute a helluva lot easier :)

Lol @suggs! She's taken I'm afraid mate! She's a pretty lass though, trying to get a shoot with the other receptionist who is also very photogenic! Others, Thanks for the feedback :)
