I'll have to pay Adam, more. The accident was supposed to get you to convert to the dark side, cos they come with screen protectors as standard!!! :p :D

Excellent news! As for learning how to use it, just stick it in manual and we'll figure the rest out :) You'll also have some reading material for the plane too, it's a win-win situation :thumb:

Sweet, the 30D is a great camera, now have one myself!

Took me a while to work out how to get to exposure compensation, wasn't obvious, but a quick read of the manual sorted that out.

You may need to clean your sensor, mine was flithy straight out the box but with a few blows using my new Giotto Rocket Blower it's cleaned up nicely!

Thanks for the sensor tip... I wont attempt anything like that myself!
Im sure someone will have a look for me in Geneva :)

Result Cath :)

Instruction books. Yes. I really must read mine :rolleyes: but it's hardly a leisure task - more like going back to school :eek:

Cath, if you were comfortable with your 350D, the 30D is extremely similar. You'll be laffin in no time ;)

See you soon,

Richard.
