Arrived as new and about half the price. It seems to be a brilliant camera but at the moment I'm still learning about AV, TV, IOS etc etc so it's mostly going to be used on automatic while I'm still experimenting with it!Ian Kirbynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2548772457330300907.post-11470383107522118632010-02-12T10:51:49.550+00:002010-02-12T10:51:49.550+00:00I think all my gear would end up in a tarn if I le...I think all my gear would end up in a tarn if I let those two loose with it! <br /><br />I think they would be pretty well useless at summoning help, in fact I think they are the more the 'loyal dog staying with their master' type. I can imagine Dougal sitting on top of me trying to lick me back to life (ugh!).<br /><br />SeanLove the Lakeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07943261962705690968noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2548772457330300907.post-87571304641103490262010-02-12T10:46:18.636+00:002010-02-12T10:46:18.636+00:00I remember going to a talk by Don Whillans when so...I remember going to a talk by Don Whillans when some brave soul asked him about what equipment he carried - the reply was his camera - he had Sherpas to carry the rest.<br /><br />Ever thought of training the dogs to be your 'Sherpas" ?<br />(just joking!)<br /><br />Serious Question. <br />How good would your dogs be at summoning help if 'god forbid' you got into real difficulty on the fells ?<br /><br />I hear Casper has a great bark.Colin Ashcrofthttp://www.pyegrove.co.uknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2548772457330300907.post-27750878769073462482010-02-12T10:07:08.399+00:002010-02-12T10:07:08.399+00:00Which Canon did you get?

I like the look of the 7D, it ticks all the boxes for me.<br /><br />I don't use a Lowepro but a similar type of thing - I use a Tamrac Velocity sling which is really quite comfortable to wear and makes easy access for the camera.<br /><br />SeanLove the Lakeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07943261962705690968noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2548772457330300907.post-30482881713711145342010-02-11T23:28:25.896+00:002010-02-11T23:28:25.896+00:00Nice camera Sean

I notice in a few older photos what looks to be a Velez top - I gather from your kit list you must run "hot", and Paramo stuff is very warm, but I can attest to its waterproof qualities!Chrisnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2548772457330300907.post-3066732877474223572010-02-11T17:26:51.802+00:002010-02-11T17:26:51.802+00:00Food?
