Happy Birthday Monty!

Oh my. Nurse!

Cheers fellas. @ShrikeHawk: I used a Sony A700 with a Tamron 300mm F2.8 @Ant: Absolutely, it was a joy to use, the weight of it handled well in the strong winds.

Finally got to try out my new lens in anger. Was sat up on Beachy Head with the Reds screaming right over the top, with great weather, all for free! What more could you ask for? It got rather loud immediately after I took this.

Says it all really... http://www.insky.cn/bbs/read.php?tid-52728.html

Perhaps something to do with the orientation of the rotodome in 3ds max?

Happy birthday Carlo!

It is used, yes, got it in an eBay auction for a touch over £460. There's a bit of information over on Dyxum about this lens, and one other review I have found on Pentax mount... http://pentaxlenstest.blogspot.com/2010/03/tamron-sp-30028-if-af.html There really isn't much available to read about this lens, it was only made for the Alpha and Pentax mounts. EDIT: Update, found one over at DP Review that someone seems to be willing to sell, cosmetic condition isn't great, but this lens is built like a tank, glass looks okay from the pics and the mount looks clean too. It still has the original drop in filter. http://forums.dpreview.com/forums/readflat.asp?forum=1056&thread=38985234http://forums.dpreview.com/forums/readflat.asp?forum=1056&thread=38985234

Actually I don't find it too bad hand holding it personally, just need to get a strap now to affix to the lens, not the body.

Picked it up this afternoon, a Tamron 300mm SP AF 300mm F2.8, my very own bazooka...

Oh my! Change of shorts please nurse.

Many happy returns chaps!

I've only managed to find this pertaining to the red wings http://www.jacksonsmodels.co.uk/images/_zoomMagnify/8746.jpg

There was an Irish Night at Royal Windsor Racecourse on Monday so popped along, a great day in all...

Flippin' heck mate, these skins look great!

Nope, real. http://www.airliners.net/photo/Russia---Air/Sukhoi-Su-30LL/1027487/L/ http://www.airliners.net/photo/Russia---Air/Sukhoi-Su-30LL/1025605/L/

There's a good chance they are being used as a low observable target to test against. In the fleet's current state, it wouldn't take much to return some to airworthiness.

Nice progress Russo! Airbase modeling gets really addictive.

NAS Fallon, needs decorating.

Dark chocolate matey.
