      Ooh you lucky lad Woo. I see you've got tomorrow's photo session already planned. Hope you get a nice day for it!

      My original 18-55mm "kit lens" for my Canon has just gone faulty :gaah: , so I'm going to sell off some of my under-used Canon lenses to fund a replacement.

                    Good afternoon and thank you my friends,Steve yes the Natural Density filter's are a must, I have had to postpone my amble due to torrential Rain and gale force winds until the next calm day,I had to sell some of my photographic gear which financed for my new camera(so no the economy is not booming):heehee: I managed a shot of the Moon hand held at 1200mm not the best Image in the world but comparable with all the other bridge cameras I have had but lots more tests to do :)

                            A monopod might be worth thinking about Woo, much lighter and easier to carry than a tripod. It won't of course give you the same stability but very easily carried.
