Hi, as per title - have used Zor.com previously for AluDibond and Plexiglass and have been pleased with the quality and price. When ready to place my order just now I was unable to proceed, and having messaged they have responded that they will no longer post to the UK because of Brexit... Does...

Amazing looking place, fantastic pictures doing it justice

How strange... I claimed for an A7iii I bought on Black Friday, waited a month and was a bit concerned as my claim should have been a double cash back amount - correct money paid in a couple of days later!

I upgraded my 70D to a 6Dmkii in December, and last weekend finally managed to get out into Snowdonia with it and once I got back in front of the Mac screen the difference between the two was massive - definitely glad I upgraded. Interestingly I also noticed a big step up between the 650D I had...

Ok so to update... having looked into the alternatives and being very close to switching to a Sony system, I bit the bullet and went for the 6D Mkii and upgraded my EF-S wide angle to a 16-35mm f4L. First impressions are wholly positive; the image quality seems to be a nice step up when using...

Hi all, slight thread revival! I posted a thread here recently: https://www.talkphotography.co.uk/threads/6d-mkii-great-camera-for-the-money-now-that-the-price-has-dropped-owners-opinions Essentially - the negative reviews of the 6Dmkii were when it was a £2k camera; now grey versions are...

Thanks for that, good idea 24-105mm f4L, 50mm STM and 70-300mm, along with flash unit so got a few EF things, admittedly not huge amounts ££££ wise!

Interesting comments, thanks all (50mm STM is one of the lenses I own already actually!) It's amused me that even when the thread asked about the 6Dii and lenses most comments have been about the lenses rather than the camera :LOL: surely someone must have used one extensively to make comment?!

Thanks everyone for your input so far :) With regards to the two wide angle lenses, the more modern design was something I had thought of myself - shame that the newer lens costs twice as much! Although I wouldn't see using a smaller aperture for landscapes as really ever being an issue? Phil...

So the 6D Mark 2 has had a somewhat frosty reception since it's launch last summer, with some review alluding to the fact that it was a lot of money with other cheaper rivals doing as good a job, if not better. Fast forward some 18 months, and with grey units available for c.£900 now (possibly...

OP- if you haven't made the call yet on Monday, I would say it is nowhere near as busy as the BTCC race day and I have always been able to enjoy the racing whilst getting the shots I wanted. Agree it's a shame about the two meets coinciding this year; I've gone for silverstone Sunday only, bar...

I'm certainly no expert by any means, but my own experience is having taken cameras to around 15-20 events at different circuits. Having upgraded from a 650D to 70D, I appreciated the higher frame rate and seemingly better autofocusing. I used a 70-200mm F4L IS and this was enough reach...

Thank you everyone for your help and inputs :)

Hi Frank, After speaking to a couple of retailers this morning I think I have just been reading too much into it; both the items I purchased on here were perfect, just wanted to make sure whether they were compatible or if I was doing something stupid! Cheers

Just to add, that is correct. The Lee holder is perfect, the adapter is one which I got with my old holder.
