Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year from Scout-Images + recent pics + gear status

Firstly I would like to wish everyone a Merry Christmas (or commercial holiday if your inclined to call it that) and a Happy New Year. I hope that you all will have a happy, safe and relaxing break over this holiday period. I have had a very busy lead up into this period and will be looking to take a bit of break over this period, however I will be try continue to post updates.

I have done an evaluation of my current arsenal (details here, locations here) and am quite pleased to say that despite the foul luck I have had over this year, I have come into the holiday period with few casualties. My Nikon D300 comes into this period in pretty good shape having just been serviced, finally fixing the LCD issue, save for a damaged viewfinder eyecup (DK-23) for which a replacement has been ordered.  The only other stand out’s are my Tamron SP 17-50mm f/2.8 (Model A16N) which is still awaiting the arrival of a replacement DA09 lenshood, to replace my damaged one.

Sadly, my Fujifilm FinePix F100fd is now listed as MIA (Missing In Action) as its current location is uncertain. I really hope it is found soon, otherwise I will be tracking down another to replace it (to keep my WP-FXF100 useful otherwise I will be out for another underwater casing).

Finally, I thought I would share some of my recent images taken whilst out with some friends at night.

MERRY CHRISTMAS from Scout Images

I would just like to wish everyone a very MERRY CHRISTMAS!!! Go out there, catch up with friends and family, eat, drink and have fun. Christmas is a time for giving and receiving so I am sure that there will be many of you out there that are going to receive new cameras or camera gear (Nikon, Canon, Olympus, Sony, Fuji, Panasonic or Pentax) so whether you use digital or film, get out there and record the moment!

Remember DIGITAL means your shots are inexpensive, so take those pics!! If you use film then you should still take plenty of shots!
