Death to RichardtheSane, you cost me a fortune!

[Jonny]

But you have inspired me to get that beauty they call the 10mm-22mm :-)
I daren't tell the Mrs i just bought a new lens, again.

Its being shipped from HK so hopefully i will have it next week, i can't wait.

Am i right in saying that the hood is the same as the one for the 17-40? I have that lens so hopefully that will say a few ££££

Also will a Hoya UV filter be ok, i heard you need really thin filters for this baby.

Thanks Rich

I have tried to delete this post since it was pointed out to me that the title may be misunderstood and i agree.

For some reason i can't seem to delete it , grrrr.

Anyway, just to clarify that i meant the title in humour and definately no malice.

Apologies to anyway who deems it inappropriate.

Sorry Rich, i hope your with your Notts humour you will understand what i meant.

i'll get my coat now.

I hope Richardthe Sane took your post the right way. I recognized it for what it was by the title. I often feel the same way about DanteKing :-)
By the way, congrats on the new lens.

Yes, death to the forum - in the nicest way possible.

We are all adults here! Well some of you.

Richard's from Nottingham , he has to have a sense of humour:)

[RichardtheSane]

Definitly need a sense of humour coming from Nottingham :)

Enjoy the lens Jonny. We musd get together sometime...
I have found that for a UV you don't need ultra slim filters, I see no vignetting with my non skinny hoya. But you WILL need a slim polariser if you use one :)

Yes, a cheap one will (and would you want to put a cheap polariser in front of a good lens?)
My expensive one does because it is not skinny one.

I might invest in one of these, call it retail therapy. My model (first one) that I was going to use tomorrow pulled out on me. Dissapointing, need to start hunting for a UK model again.

Yeah I mentioned a few times how I hate everyone in this forum. Lastly it was because of that 70-300 DO thing.
Buggers! :D

Yes this forum corrupted me to order a the 10-22mm too, but now after a million orders over the last year to BHphoto they want to confirm my order by me calling them...D*** them I really wanted this lens by the weekend!!! :lol:

I'm actually worried now I've ordered tons of gear from BHp and I've never had to call them? They must be serious they even sent me an email, D*** them for not being open 24-7 to call them. :p
