Will you keep the 300mm 2.8 too?

What is your lens line up btw? I'm in need of making up those old favours ;) ;)

So not much interest so far in GKPE IX, I am running Taxi from East Auckland to the ferry if anyone is interested? Should be a good day unless we go to the museum (thanks for the heads up Clive!).

I am hoping to come (So please pencil me in for a seat in the taxi) but will depend on what happens with KSs job over the next couple of days. We may need to save the money.

My 70-200 did the rounds with several people just after I got it. My generosity was rewarded with a scratch in the coating on the front element :evil:

Fortunately it does not show up in images.

Who did it?

I will never know. It did the rounds to a couple of GKPErs and one non GKPEr for a weekend with the rest of my gear. The more I think about it the more I think it was the 'third party', as it was used at a concert that apparently was quite rough. Didn't discover it for a couple of weeks though.

Do you know who I had in mind when I decided to alternate them between Saturday and Sunday? :p
