Hello Rob,

You have some nice images on your blog, but I think they would be even better if they were saved as maximum quality JPEGs (I presume that you are using the "Save for Web" option and not just "Save As"?) and posted as larger files with a little less sharpening.

I think that the 100-400mm is a tad over-priced (I think you might need to come below the £1,000 barrier just a touch). Your 40D is (in my opinion) way over-priced; there are brand new bodies at a similar price (although admittedly very difficult to find now).

Just out of interest, why are you selling? It might also be to your advantage to state that "near offers would be considered".

Best,

Colin :beer:

Hi Colin,

The reason for selling is because I have a baby on the way. I was basically going by prices I found on LCE's website. The 100-400mm was £1099.00 (around £1300-£1400 brand new) and the Canon 40d was £499, the reason for £515 was the two batteries and the remote release.

I am open near offers of course.

Best wishes

Rob

Well done Rob (I won't ask whether you got the price you were asking:ohdear:); hope that when the new baby is "installed" that you can get back into photography.

All the best,

Colin :smile:

If I sold the baby now I would have to sell the other half too at the moment! Actually, maybe... Na, better not!

Cheers Guys.
