I bought a 100-500 lens and thats what I had on it as well. Tracks to an address in Manchester. I am curious to know the margins they have on all this stuff and how they get around it.. Not complaining, the less tax we pay the better of course.

Very much an itch; R5 Mark 1 or R6 Mark III.. or save for R5 Mark II! Head says the R6 Mark IIII would be the best bet really/. had an R5 years ago, and it was good, only got rid to release some funds. Most recent R I've used it the R8 which was very good.. Just got some nice RF lens still...

Back on the Panasonic came with a G9 ii and Leica 100-400… few photos from the last couple weeks.

I have the 100-300 Panasonic and do find it sharper than the 75-300 which I had a while back - as a test. However I used it on an OM-1. I’ve now switched to Panasonic, and am using a 100-400 and the 100-300 - which is good, no complaints. Only OM lens I have is the macro lens (90mm I think it...

That sounds so nice!

I've done it on every camera and digital device I have, Doesn't affect a thing but provides me much needed peace of mind that I'm not going to get any scratches!

Well, it's used isn't it, that's the difference, hence the difference in price? Whether used by the princess of Sheba who treasured it, or an absolute animal - it's used. Each to their own though!

Which ever way you look at it - a new product is better than a used product (of the same model and specification of course). Maybe this doesn't apply to things like wallets or suchlike that "wear better" over time. To argue or to suggest otherwise is... surely idiocy?

I'm on the 13 Pro still and it updated just fine - runs very well indeed.

I’m still on a 13 Pro over here..

Yup. so yeah, if you're buying new, juts get yourself to an Apple Store or even apple refurbished and just get it off there. You're good to rock and roll!

I'm used to the regular keyboard anyway, used it since I was 14 on m first ever family Mac! I tried the one with a weird big enter key and that just through me off. Regular size enter key all the way!

Not bad at all. If you're ever in Canada that's a good option too. What I tend to do, is buy a use Mac that's still under AppleCare. I needed a backup so got a 13" 2 TB under Apple Care Plus for another 2 years, and that cost me about £450 - got that in FL in March. And my main machine, a 2021...

That’s it. I always buy US models due to more attractive price - last few have been from Florida and Canada. Thinking about it, most of the stuff I get is from the other side.
