[Dan Cattermole]

Top Dog Hammer!
I'll refer to that if worse than expected.

 

[Chris Dodkin]

Alright. If Mr. Dodkin finds me a cheap Trip in good shape around here, I'll do it. But I'm on the road the next couple of weeks.

you're on Darren - I'll get looking

 

[Darren Bradley]

Don't mean to send you off on a wild goose chase, Chris. But if you run across one in your normal archeological digs, I'm in!

Cheers.

 

[Chris Dodkin]

Brilliant! Brilliant!

Hamish - the Trip I got from RPF only has light seals at the hinge, none along the rest of the door - did it ever have any light leaks when you used it?

 

[Hamish Gill]

I don't think so ...
try and ignore the ranting at the beginning ...

Any thoughts on budget Darren - don't want to buy that limited edition platinum plated Trip from Nigeria if it's not your thing...

It was a long time ago, I was young and angry

 

[Dave Green]

This is my new baby that should be with me by med week

 

[Chris Dodkin]

Damn that's a hot looking Trip Dave

 

[Dan Cattermole]

**** the bed, that does look sexational!!

 

[Darren Bradley]

They typically go for $25 to $50, right? Anywhere in that range is fine. I just mention it because I know you're more likely than me to find one. What's this about a platinum one in Niagara, then?

Sounds good - if you want the Nigerian model, I'll need your Social, Bank Account Details and Birthdate

Aaaaahhh,NIGERIA! I am going to Niagara this week so had that on the brain when I read your note. I don't want to buy the camera from widow of the former Nigerian Minister of Finance or anything like that, no!

 

[Chris Dodkin]

Drop me a PM when you're back, and I'll have a camera ready for you

 

[Darren Bradley]

Much obliged, Chris. Look forward to getting together when I get back.

My Trip turned up in the post today, looking rather nice and behaving as it should (it's a refurb). But no case - any suggestions?

I was wondering if an ever-ready case for one of those new-fangled mirrorless cameras would be about the right size, does anyone know? (yes, a bit of an obscure request) They look about the right size.

erc's are usually very specific to camera ... the position of the thread that attaches them to the tripod thread is very precise

That's handy to know Hamish, thank you.

If the tripod thread had been 1cm off, I could've got the trip in my vitoret case. But, no. Which proves your point.

 

[Dave Green]

Mine should be here tomorrow - getting all giddy now

 

[Dan Cattermole]

Mine too... Be great!!
