Looks like my surgery is going to be tuesday, barring any queue jumpers or emergencies.

Tony, they are letting me out for a few hours to watch Daniel play hockey tomorrow. I should be back for visiting hours though. Send me a txt if u want.

Cheers Tony.

Just need a couple more thing's, tripod is right at the top of my list. I was thinking of the Manfrotto 055XPROB (external link) with the 468MGRC4 (external link) ball head. Anyone comment on this set up?


Cant comment on the ball head but I love my 055XPROB, just brought it last week and love it.
I got a pan head basic one for now as I have never had need for a pod, but after usig it I realise how :(useful they are....although heavy to lug round!
Sorry if there are mistakes bloody emoticons are taking over the page!

I was perving over one yesterday and this morning, how I walked out of that store without one is beyond me :lol:

Tony, had a meeting this morning and signed on the dotted line (well about 20 of them) about the website. Will announce it a bit later when I get the go ahead ;)

Thought I would try my hand at extreme, well 15 minutes, long exposure tonight. There's a bit of banding and jaggies but that's the Flickr sizing thing ;)
