Does a Canon P&S count? I have a Powershot S3 thats a backup to my Nikon DSLR.


You should be fine with just a Canon t-shirt.

Leo - we can get you a Canon tattoo - I am sure we can find someone in the area willing to do one for you :twisted:

Oh and if you are raffling the 500mm maybe John can buy a ticket for me (LOL)

Thanks for organizing the event James - it was loads of fun!

Paul - thanks for bringing the hardware and giving us all ideas on our next purchase!

James - you said the 500 F4 was a site to behold AND it was difficult to hold!!!

That's OK - apparently Nikon is the new Canon!

I missed the 500mm!! well, at least I made it to the pub last minute, as some of you were getting bills and ready to leave.

hey, maybe it's a metaphor, as Canonites are leaving for Nikon, I'll support this dying breed until the end. :-b

Well, Nikon doesn't have an exciting set of super-teles like the 500, 600 and 800 to choose from and I know I found a few willing sherpa's to help lug the 500 around if I needed, so I don't think Canon is dead yet :-)

Great meeting everyone, see you out on the streets!
