    Oops again

    Well I have really done it this time - cleared the credit card and the first thing I do. . . . . go to WEX and trade my 1dmkiv in for the 1DX [shakes head] got a decent price for the mk4 even with 118500k shutter count so now I just need a couple of days to get my head around it and get the settings as I need them. Hey none of us know how long we are here so why not enjoy it while we can - as long as the mortgage gets paid everything else is a bonus

    Oh and some new recipes for bread and water please

    .DAVID.

            Great news David, like Di I can't wait to see some images its a shame the racing season is over as this is where you could give the 1Dx a real workout.

                lol, thanks guys - as for the camera shop being close. . . . . . sort of. . . . . well it's a hundred miles away but it seems closer! Hopefully get some time with it next weekend (got a packed week with the day job) never know I may even learn how to use it before the next season starts lol

                Oh as a side note - anyone use SD cards? Although I had one in the camera (and one spare) I never actually used them in the mk4 so I have a sandisk SDHC 16gb and a Sandisk extreme pro 16gb up for grabs anyone wants them

                .DAVID.

                          Are the L lenses there to attract the sexy bodies???
