HN - not allowed to sell anything above the 5d - they are also not allowed to sell anything bigger than f2.8 and 300mm to..

the number has changed from 1.3.1 to 1.4 -

A month ago they couldn't get anything bigger than 70-200 f4IS, but I see they have a 28-300 L (?) now, as well as the 70-200 f2.8IS

Yeah, I guess as they sell more they will be allowed to access more. Noel leeming arn't allowed more than the 400D!

thanks guys - i was impressed with the lightsphere, having used a bounce-card style diffuser before i can see this is an improvement for close portraiture in poor light

the ambient light was ceiling downlights, some fluoro and some tungsten - nightmare, had to fiddle a bit with WB to get it right but i think they came out nicely - specially since i was getting used to the focus being assigned to AF-ON instead of shutter, at the same time

Its called been smart.

Oh for the record all my chatter re php,mysql and phpbb3 is photography related .....well in as much I have a greater understanding of the work the mods and admin have to do to keep this site running 24/7
I also under stand the different rolls. The Servers they use must be hudge esp for the DB's and storage.
So MODS thank you.

Heh - yeah - there's a ton of work going on behind the scenes of forum boards. I try to steer clear of all that technical stuff

Looking good. Those would definitley be the best brick photos I have seen all day!

I detect a tiny bit of facetiousism :lol:
I'll run off with the compliment though, ta!
