This week I’ve been over in Wales at our factory which is based just outside Cardiff. It has been a pretty good week to be honest. We’ve gone through various bits of build procedure, and I’ve got another bundle of work that will need doing as well as a trip to Canada in the offing ( Read more... )

Not gold course, golf course.
Maybe I should start reading what I type....

Sounding good!

Didn't go for the Canon f/2.8 in the end - went for the Tamron equivalent - less than half the price, no IS, but generally good reviews.

Sounds good, I've got a Tamron 28-75 2.8 as my normal zoom lens, and I am pretty pleased with it.

Did you get it in time for the SBA gig? I was hoping to be there, but my body decided to notice the sleep-dep abuse I've been putting it under over the last week :(

Yeah, you were asked after ...

As for the lens, it arrived in time, but the stage was frankly too dark for unblurred shots (even with f/2.8 and ISO 1600), so I went back to the Sigma 30mm f/1.4 again ... was handy for photos at the party afterwards, though ...

Looking forward to the photos.

Hoping that next week I'll be able to do some of the Whitby photos whilst I am down in Wales next week.

Not sure, I do hope so. Or perhaps some shopping at dollar prices....
