Thanks Click :)

Thanks mate, it was such a great weekend, this was the 13th race (started in 2006) and as I've been to them all, this was one of the best as far as the quality of the racing, can't wait for next year now :-[

I got there at 9am on Friday, race started at 2pm, I left at 9:30pm after the fireworks, according to my watch I burnt 1,200 calories, walked 23 klm's, with over 30,000 steps taken, carrying a 5D3 with a 16-35, a 70D with a 100-400 and a 600 (mark 1) on a monopod, I came home completely...

And again!

A few more.

Another few.

I was at the excellent Hankook Dubai 24 Hours over the weekend, what an utterly brilliant event, it's gets better every year! I hope you like the images 8)

Yeah I was lucky Graham, I was half expecting mad prices similar to the cost of a new item.....after all, it's Dubai!!! The infuriating thing was that as I walked away from the camera on the tripod, I was after what I thought was a lifer but turned out to be a common species, so there wasn’t...

Hi folks, Just a quick update, I collected the camera and lens yesterday afternoon and the total cost for servicing the lens (adjusting the “tighten” ring assembly and removal of a tiny bug stuck to one of the internal lenses and general service) and to replace the pentaprism assembly and make...

mmmmmmmmmm, distractions!

Well that's it away for the repair work, the tech suggested that the internals will be checked and recalibrated, a new pentaprism assembly and a new dioptre wheel will be done for around 1,600 Dirhams (+-$440). I also submitted my 100-400L for a service and to have a small bug removed. I'll let...

This one shows how the whole centre of focus looks to the left!

Viewfinder damage (bottom left).

Hi guys, I tried the live view (I've never really used it so not sure what to lookout for), and I noticed that the camera sounded like it was "hunting" before it took a shot, there is also some artefact (looks like reflections from some kind of cracked glass) viewable inside the viewfinder which...

Thanks for your input and suggestions gentlemen, I never thought to check live view, I’ll do that later! Don the 600L works perfect on my 70D, it seems to be any lens that I attach to the 5D3. I’m not great at afma so I hope this is something easy, everytime I think about it; it depresses the...

Hi folks, I have identified that my 5D3 has a problem and I was wondering if anyone else has ever experienced something similar, and what kind of a repair bill will I be facing. My camera had my 600L and 1.4x attached when it fell over on my tripod (two legs extended), the hill side was shale...

I like my collection, but wouldn't mind adding (ones in red) a couple to have, what I consider a full set. 1. 8-15 L (want). 2. 16-35 II L 3. 24-105 L 4. 100-400 I L (want to upgrade to a II) 5. 1.4xIII 6. 600 I L 7. 50 1.4 8. 100 2.8 Macro 9. 70-200 2.8 II L (want, but don't really need)

I managed a few snaps last weekend while out looking for the Egyptian Nightjar, I thought I would share a few with you guys so you can see some of the species we have here in the UAE. 1. Gray Francolin 2. Blue Cheeked Bee-Eater 3. Egyptian Nightjar 4. Red Wattled Lapwing
