Oh I dont doubt that at all. Im happy for purely selfish reasons :)

Never been economical for me to go to Birmingham for this, so personally I welcome the possibility of the show being at the eXcel. 45 mins from door to venue. Excellent (y) I have to admit, I find the outrage to this change of venue quite amusing. Ive never been able to justify going to...

Thanks Peter. Its definitely going to be very late in the day/evening or very early in the morning opportunities on this trip, which isnt terrible really, as there will be less people and more atmosphere, assuming the weather plays ball for me :)

Thanks for the tip Adam, and yes, that certainly does look like a great spot :)

Afternoon, In May, I will be going out to Prague for a few days for a work conference. It appears that in the evenings I will be required to attend Supplier/Client dinner 'events' :(, so that potentially leaves me with 2 mornings that I can get out for sunrise, and back again before I have to...

How 'budget' do you want :) I recently found some old negs and slides and wanted to scan them without any significant outlay. I got one of these from Amazon, and it did what I needed it to do. Depends of course what you want to use the final output for; may not be suitable for you...

Ooh that’s not good. Were you not given a time slot they were planning to deliver? I’ve used MPB a fair bit over the last few years and I’ve always been emailed with details of when delivery will be attempted. On one occasion I wasn’t going to be in, and just arranged for a different day.

My first camera was an olympus OM-10 given to me by my Dad, when I was 10 years old, and my latest is a Sony A7Riv.

Quick update. The camera arrived in absolutely pristine, like new condition. I also ordered a ‘like new’ Lowepro ProTactic 450 AWii which didn’t even look like it had ever been used. Another great experience with MPB; very happy!

Bad timing on my part, as I ended up with no camera over the bank holiday weekend (resorted to trying to take stills with my GoPro in the back garden :)), but I was looking to upgrade my A7Riii and totally forgot about the long weekend. DOH! Anyway, I sent the camera and a few other bits in...
