    100-400 replacement

    The price of around 2k would seem about where Canon will pitch it. If you remember the 70-200 2.8 is series 1 was about £1100-£1200 when Canon announced the new series 2 which came out around 2k when it was released i think. If sharp like you say Roy could be a great lens. At most airshows i go...

    Lesvos 2014

    Booked up monday for 2 weeks from the 10th may next year for our 6 visit. I know we miss some of the migrants then, but perfer the second/third weeks out there, we also miss the hustle & bustle of the tour groups which means we can potter around the island at our own pace and enjoy the peaceful...

    Football Stadium Plans Weymouth RSPB Lodmoor

    Sorry just seen this move up as i have been away for a bit. Ormskirk. I have not seen anything in the local paper since feb. The Sniper. Allegedly. It is not the football club who wants to move. I believe that the club only owns the ground not all the land around it. If i remember correctly...

    Football Stadium Plans Weymouth RSPB Lodmoor

    I see in the Dorset Echo (local paper) revised plans have been submitted to the council, looks like the developers that own the land around the current ground want the new football ground to go to Lodmoor. Strange though that Weymouth council have not come out yet and said if they are willing...

    Am I The Only Tone Deaf Birder?

    I am just over 50 and worked in a factory all my life, it is only just in the last few years that we seem to have had anything about protecting hearing done. This may explain why the wife/group i go out with can hear lots of birds me only some. You ought to chuck in colour blind as well, now...

    Canon 6D preview

    Could be intresting if you were to ring and ask for one. If your accent is strong a 6D may sound like a60 so could be fun, bit of a difference in price though. As it has been said already no short term plans for a upgraded 7D so looks like the firmware upgrade for the7D gives Canon some space to...

    Canon 500m F4 lens; advice appreciated

    Hi When i got my 500 F4 i was given a Don Zeck lens cap. While it seems expensive for what it is. I just love it, quick easy to put on/take off i guess it is only the price and that it is made in the good old USA that we don't see many more. Stan
