Thank you all for your advice and patience. I've got it now - always better for me to tackle these things early morning rather than the evening. Cheers.

It's still October ya know? I have to think about November. Cloudy cold days and me do not get along together at all. I'll probably join in November but I don't know which lens to use yet.

Dude! We are here to help as much as we can. Glad to be of service.

Quite certain I'll be in in November also. Just have to chose a lens... This could get ugly.

I've not played the single game before, but I'm going to try for November, probably with the Kiron 28mm f:2 I picked up this summer and haven't done much with yet. I just have to figure out where to post the pics yet.

[blackcloudbrew]

That Kiron 28 is a great lens. You can have a lot f fun with that.

I've not done this before either. I was thinking I needed to get out there and use my new fisheye before it becomes a seldom used novelty in my bag. The impending cold weather has hit us too and we'll be lucky to be above freezing this weekend into mid week. This means I stay home more than go out, but then it does give me a reason to get out and do something .

I think I will go round again in November, hopefully I wont be quite so busy and i can get a bit more time for photos.. I said "hopefully!"
I have a new DA15mm that I might give a good testing.
OK Matt, I will see what I can do for summer/beach shots for you.

Hmmm this may be just what I need to get some use out of my A35-105mm that I've been neglecting.

I've been shooting all month with my A35-105, it's been quite instructive for me with the lens. Love to see what you can do with yours.

I am going to take a swing at November. I have barely lifted my camera since August ended but with the sun finally breaking through after a week of grey and snow I am feeling optimistic (or is that fool hardy?). I am going to borrow my son's DA 50-200 WR which has not had much attention from him, play around with my flash and probably focus on more indoor shots which are not my strong suit. The first week may be a little rough due to workload but I keep telling myself that after I get past the 6th things should ease up a bit. (fingers crossed)

Thanks for getting this going Matt. I hope the coming storm doesn't hit you too hard down there.

If that's the case I will never choose a 150-500mm again.
Though I just received my RainCoat for the lens!

I think Halloween will be ruined for the kids based on how the storm is tracking.

I was thinking about a raincoat for my Kr... as the weather looks like the first week is all indoor shooting at this point... bleh.

Still on the edge whether to join or not. I'm super busy and still several days behind commenting October, but November is calling me....
And what comes to the lens, the DA40ltd was super for October as it was so compact and I could have it with me all the time. The M28 and M50 aren't too big either (it's actually disturbing how similarly sized they are) so maybe I'll pick one of them... On the other hand I'd like to give the kit zoom a chance, I haven't shot with it in a long time, but then again compared to the three aforementioned lenses it's quite bulky. Meh, I think I'll give the M28 a go, I haven't used that one too much either...
