The currys at oxford had a couple of B+W filters for 20 quid. But only up to 62mm I think. Not sure if thats cheap but if anyone wants some...

Oh, I guess that makes some kinda sense! Thanks guys! Ok so I've now linked a credit card to my paypal (had stashed it away somewhere so I wouldn't be tempted to spend more than i CAN :cool:), does this mean that as long as its not expired etc I won't have to worry about having to use an...

Oh boy, I'm just worried that its all going to look so dodgy on my part, but really its never happened before :( Is it a random thing, or must I have done something to trigger it?? paypal is evil!

This is totally another paypal scam, isn't it? Ok back story: I bought something on ebay, I was excited like ****, right up till I went to check out. Now, this has NEVER happened to me before, but I was told that I COULDN'T pay with the instant bank transfer I normally use, but instead I had...

Maybe they don't have internet in Ireland. In my humble, honest opinion, I think you sound rather demanding. Essentially, you have come onto a public forum, without waiting a reasonable amount of time PLUS the fact that YOU held off on your end of the deal, and called him a scammer. You...

thanks for the heads up! Just ordered mine too! Am I right to think that Amazon has switched their mail operator so they shouldn't be held up by the strikes? :thinking:

I don't quite understand why people are being so self-righteous about it. Sure, most of the time everything arrives with no problems, but there are occasions when it doesn't, and in those occasions their customer service is really nothing to boast about! I had a particular problem with one of my...

a link, please?

i know 7 day shop is great, and i have purchased from them a fair bit and will continue to do so; but yours is not an isolated experience!!! (I think they do employ monkeys! Automated monkey bots) Anyway, my experience was such: had not received my item, and sent them a note as such...

yup going to agree that the ball adds to the picture in 3. love the whole "what the hell" feel about it. :thumbs:

"Run many existing Windows XP productivity applications in Windows 7.²" What the pro version has and the home doesn’t. i've got two ordered, even though i'm on a macbook :naughty:

why don't you check out the canon outlet store on ebay? they're refurbs.

how fun! compare and contrast, same question in different forms? :lol: http://www.talkphotography.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=141560

actually, the extra stop also does wonders for bokeh so theres that too i think. anyway, the 70-200mm is about 1.3kg if i'm not wrong. I've carried the 70-200mm 2.8 IS for a whole day, and that’s 1.5kg or slightly more, and while i had no problems during the day, the next day was spent...

Cool. Thanks david, the weight IS indeed one thing that concerns me, as I do think I might use the f/4 more than just for sports if I can bring it around easier. I take yours, and packhams point about quality as well. I think its undeniable that Canon L will always be more than third party...
