      We will soon be the proud owners of A Nikon D3 (only 100,000 clicks thanks to @Jesse !!) plus a 28-300 lens.  Just in the process of bidding on a 40mm Micro.

      Our Fujifilm X-Pro will be sold.  Whilst I love that camera, I think the D3, will be better for what we need.

      So if anyone is interested in an effectively brand new Fujifilm X-Pro, plus 2 lenses, plus a shit load of extras, PM me…..

            My brother's currently shooting with a Nikon D800E, and that might make a nice partner for the D3.

                    Something with some size. It's nice to have different lens options in one bag.
                    It's technically my wife's, a Christmas present, she uses it quite a bit. I keep telling myself I am going to learn how to use it, but I just take photos which autofocus. My wife wishes she had a larger bag so she can keep multiple lenses with her if we go on trips

                      Billingham makes classy timeless bags, and artisan and artist makes amazing stuff as well.

                      Come to think of it this seems like the perfect time for us to collaborate on an iron heart camera bag run.

                      But in the meantime a Hadley series by billingham should get you going, I've been using a Hadley pro for my go to leica small kit to shoot concerts and the bags going strong on 7 years now with constant use.

                      They're in the UK as well.

                      A&A is Japanese, go figure.

                      Cheers

                          Snowy, that's one of my brother's shots. I can't take credit.

                          Given the interest in both photography and mechanical watches on this forum, I thought that I'd draw attention to Kwanghun Hyun's clockwork pinhole cameras. They use a re-purposed Unitas movement to drive the shutter.

                          The photos produced live up to the hoary cliche of being dreamy.

                                      sees what he's up against… slinks of again quietly

                                      But before I do... How is it possible to do this??

                                      I suspect it's to do with the auto-focus not kicking in before the timer goes off, but how?

                                      ducks head, runs off

                                        MP that's a new high, even for you :).

                                        I think it's focused close to the camera, not past you, as if it was infinity, something would be in focus. As such, it's focused on something before you got in front - correct. My SLR's focus at the moment the self-timer's engaged. What camera do you use? I'd like to nut out the problem 🙂

                                            Answered; it focuses when the self timer button is depressed, not when it takes the photo;

                                            Same problem I had with my SLR's which is why an IR remote comes in handy.
