You can come out of that darkened room now, perhaps if you didnae spend so much on car cleaming products you could treat yourself to one :rolleyes: :eyes up: :hand:

lol

Spent £300 on all the polishes, wax, machines, cloths, applicator pads and masking tape.:thumbs up:

If I listened to Ian King and Fi, I'd have spent a hell of a lot more. But still would pale in comparison to £8k for a lens.:frown:

Funny you should post this thread.
Was actually talking to Calumet photography 10 days ago.:)
Only about getting sensor cleaned on 20D, not lens purchase:)
This is an American company, wonder it they will supply at USA prices:)
I don't suppose Ally would be to pleased lugging this around for me:thumbs up:
Perhaps you could drop this casually into the conversation when we meet at Croft:yes nod:

The Canon lens was bad enough at £1000 per 100mm!
Still if you feel the urge to buy one Fiona, please get canon fit:D
Andy and myself may consider giving a small donation if we can borrow it for a day at Knockhill:yes nod:
I supose your reply will be :moonie: :moonie: !
