Post away, we won't mind.

Is it worth mentioning I know of one 5D2 that broke straight out the box?

My 30D was broken right out of the box. Canon fixed it, and now it works quite well.

Likewise with the above situation...

it's not really that bad, it's the same as going up Remarkables on a wet winters day... kinda. you look after your gear it'll be ok, it's pretty hard on it though i suppose, I lost a lens hood because being plastic it shrunk from the cold then expanded and so became extremely loose, so loose it fell off when using it. It must be a real problem with the mk11 as we never saw a camera fail in 8 weeks(well not that we heard of beyond the normal "I dropped it in the water and...", and no major stories from the photographer before us.

I don't think the Antartic counts as a normal operating environment for anything except a person with the last name Hillary.

We were asked not to take any photo's as soon as we walked in the pub door

back from the Butterfly park at Te Puru.
Only edited two so far. I'll have to go to the auckland one with a 100mm macro.

Great shots! Going back to Butterfly Creek without the kids is on my list of photographic things to do!

It was time to go home when we left the pub

Great sunrise, see, there is a point to getting up early in the morning

And, in other news:-- Top Gear Magazine & 2009 calendar arrived today (courtesy of wife's work)

There is some really nice automotive rig photography in the calendar (just to keep it photography related)
