Yea i hear ya but unfortunately I don't have a flash that'll work the the 10D. Have been reliably informed that the Cobra 440AF wont work with it and I don'l have the money to fork out on a ringflash. Talking of flash,will the PC socket work with other flashguns? Never had a camera with a PC socket before

If its raining i just have to get on with it, as i have been paid for a job and have to do it. If its for myself (well i hardly do anything with the cams now for myself) but when i did, i'd go out anyway, as the rain can make very intresting images - rain in oil for example, rainbows etc.... so wrap up, put your coat on, put the coat on the camera and get out and shoot

football - kicking the ball with your feet - not picking it up and carrying it while running

Ah....we play football with our feet here in the UK, that's why it's called football. Soccer is some foreign game I think.

What you play in America is 'rubgy with helmets and pads'. Rugby is popular here too, but we don't need helmets or pads

American football is closer to what we call rugby cos you use your hands a lot compared to soccer. I don't watch either.
