I am renting a Canon 14mm from lensesforhire for my trip in a couple of weeks
It'll go very smoothly. It always does.I may well consider renting a lens, let me know how it goes Dan

I've been looking into flights from Gatwick and the options are Wow, Easyjet and Icelandair - it looked like Easyjet had a more generous hand luggage policy with a larger size allowance and unlimited weight compared to Icelandair (limited to 10kg). What was your experience with Icelandair like in practice, as I would probably prefer to avoid Easyjet?
Thanks for the airline info Dan. Icelandair will probably be our preference, if we feel we'll be within the hand luggage limits. We've previously been up to the 10kg Virgin limit plus separate toploaders (as the "small camera bag" they allow) and "handbags" so we are aware we have alot of equipment that we won't put in the hold. Some kit rationalisation may be required!
Thanks for the input. People who have been to Iceland have far one up on me so tips on everything is highly appreciated as well!Coat

I could add what NOT to take / do... don't go to Vik Beach and get your camera bag out, you'll end up with loads of black sand on and in all your equipment
Looking to secure some items in the Christmas sales. So are we saying soft edge grads are preferable over hard edge?
If theres no straight horizontals I think it will tip me towards a soft grad
Wow really, I had no idea it would be that wet! What would you guys recommend in terms of water proofing equipment? Nothing too expensive as I'll probably only use it for this trip.
Thanks RichieTee, for those memories i could of spend days in the area. i think it was a destructive tour for you though.
Well, if we're posting pix of Paul getting his feet wet... Well, the moment that Paul realised that the sea was cold and wet and about to invade his walking boots!

Pauls tripod is something else!!! (No jokes please ) honestly. He was stood on a 3ft wall and he had it extended on the floor to eye level. And he's 6ft off tooThat tripod is about the same height as me.
