    Manfrotto 401N Carry Strap

    Evening all. My Opticron strap for my Leica/Manfrotto head/Velbon Carbon legs combo is about to fail. I'm not too keen on the back pack way of carrying kit and wonder if anybody uses this strap ? I know its a bit expensive but looks ideal for me. Bit of a computer dullard so unable to post a...

    Norfolk birding

    Hi everyone, really enjoying the Skua chat, all good stuff. Just wanted to throw a couple of things into the mix r.e the Wash and overland route theory.

    Norfolk birding

    Evening, always fascinating to read the accounts of a sea watch and the direction/time of movements of birds.
