Hat Fair Salisbury Camera Club Summer Outing

The response to my email regarding the Salisbury Camera Club Summer Outing have been very disappointing.

10 members saying they are unable to attend.
This makes it not viable to run as a group event, we are sorry about this.

As a result of this Members wishing to go will need to make their own arrangements.

Look forward to seeing you on Monday 5th September

Big Canon Lens for Sale

I’m a commercial photographer now shooting almost completely on Hasselblad but have a 400 2.8 canon lens, sat in it’s box collecting dust, the lens is in mint condition and has not been used much, looking to sell it and thought someone from your club may find it of value?
Comes with a protective black rubber coating sock to protect the lens surface, a extra built in slot polarising filter and a wembley tripod head stand which all big lens use to hang the lens/camera on, the wembley stand alone is normally £500. Also thrown in is a 1.4 x extension tube.

Selling the bundle for £3600. plus VAT. (I'm a business so have to charge vat sadly. Invoice / recipes supplied.)

My site in case your curious is www.davidlund.co.uk, you can see my work is very much studio based. This lens needs a new loving home, and to be used.
Any questions feel free to call. Perfect for this surfing shots.
Kindest regards

Volunteers at the Hospital Needed

I have donated two old hearing aids that were made by a company I worked for many years ago. They are for the Hospital Museum.

Did you know they had a museum? No I did not and neither do many Hospital employees.

Finally I tracked down Lesley Meaker and she gratefully accepted my gift.

I then found that Lesley has manged to get an HLF grant for the History Project. For this Volunteers are needed. I have pasted below some of the information about this project. If you are interested - and it looks very interesting - then contact Lesley [details below].
Please not the Volunteers Parking Permit! Useful.
