Originally posted by Benz3ne I don’t think there was much difference between this year and last year, truthfully.
Hopefully they don’t crank things up or I will be looking elsewhere.
In previous years I've gotten discounts by holding out until the last minute to renew - I got progressively greater discounts as time went on. Now it just renews automatically at full price.
Well, I'm finally out of isolation and been able to go down to the post office to pick up the F-mount Vivitar AF 19-35mm. It's in great condition and seems to work well, it even looks quite handsome on the F801S. It came without a hood though and I thought I probably should have kept the hood when I sold my K-mount version a couple of years ago, but well. Unlike the K-mount version, where it was exclusively a super-wide-angle, on the Nikon it'll be a more general wide-angle lens. I might even use it at a focal length other than 19mm!!
My e-bay auto searches also picked up an AA battery pack for the SFXn at a decent buy-it-now price so I jumped on that before realising I bought another one a few months ago, so now I have a grand total of three, which is, I think, how many SFXns I've got. This is what happens when I accumulate stuff at my folks' house (due to Brexit) waiting to get home to pick it all up, but who knows when that'll be.
