Re: My photographic days are over!

I'm sorry to hear that Dave, its a big step!

I have no idea what you have which makes it difficult to make offers. Can you put it all together and photograph it, we may see things we are looking for?

Re: F Stop backpacks - anyone got one?

The Tilopa has arrived and my first impressions are that it is very well made and fits me perfectly (I'm 5' 61/2").

Re: Advice sought re. best bag and also tripod head

Barry, I've just checked thr dimensions of the tipola and its included internal camera unit against my dakine sequence. Its all just a little bit bigger which is good and perhaps better in terms of comfort and weight? I carry a field camera+3 lens kit, etc, etc in the sequence so that should give y...
