Congratulations on the new toy Peter, i assume it'll be getting an outing at Grizedale on saturday ?

I've almost pulled the trigger on a MK2 myself a couple of times in recent weeks, but for the amount of use it would get between now and March i might as well wait...i might get a better price in a few months anyway :p

Mind it's rather heavy :o

You know the eye piece that's on your camera in that picture isn't the correct one for a 1D? Look like someone stuck the eye piece from a 20D on there...ewww

No way, why wait??

I think you will master it pretty quickly - and then master it again, and again when you discovered it's "hidden" secrets! :-)

I'm still finding new ways to use mine - door stop, paperweight.... JK! ;-)a

Which pic are you refering to?

BTW Pete, I used my 20D last weekend as a second body, with my 17-40, and it felt really light-weight.

My bet is your used to your new purchase already!

That looks the same as mine - maybe they've changed it recently?
