    There’s a compatibility issue with Sigma lenses, which Sigma has offered to correct free of charge, whilst throwing in a general lens service at the same time.

    AFAIK, Canon EF lenses are ok.

    Regarding the issue of “early adopters” being used as guinea pigs for final testing of new technologies, I have to agree that it sucks, but it seems to be here to stay unfortunately.

    I bought a DVD recorder a year or so ago, when they first came out. The problems with it were unbelievable, but by keeping a cool head and complaining “properly”, I struck up a good relationship with the manufacturer and have successfully received replacement models, keeping my unit up to date so far.:)

    That’s the plan at the minute, I don’t imagine a plane full of Scots would need to route via Canada, unless it’s political of course ?

    Time will tell ?

    A little further research tells me the Zoom flights will operate via Ottawa and Halifax and not direct from Glasgow to the new sun resorts.

    At least you’ll know Easy only fly A319’s so no mixing it with the A320.

    Someone has made a mistake somewhere along the line, and to be honest its not your problem, its theres and they should sort it and make your order a first Priority!

    I did and they threw in the extra year’s warranty for free. They’re blaming the computer for the mix up, but then don’t they always ?

    Looking forward to more of your pictures Roger.

    The annoying thing is they sent me an order confirmation by e-mail, it was only when I looked this morning I noticed all of the details were blank.

    Doh !! It’s like Santa being late with the toys !!!:rolleyes:

    Maybe it’s because Easyjet planes are such a common sight, but I’m really bored looking at their livery. A new one would be nice to see.

    Well wouldn’t you know it… ?

    They lost my order in the system and by the time I phoned up to query it, they’d sold out of EOS 10d’s. I’ll have to wait ten days to get one now !

    Bah Humbug !!!!:mad:

    I ran into Wayne Hussey once, he asked what my favourite Mission song was, I said I preferred First Last and Always. He just stopped speaking to me there and then.

    Was never a huge Mission fan, I bought God’s Own Medicine on vinyl and that was it. I noticed some of their stuff for £5 on CD in my local branch of Fopp yesterday. Lot’s of Pixies stuff for the same price too, I might add.
