   That’s the exact lens I was going for – I was disappointed.
   (Is in the pictures but they seem to have been resized – boo)

   Jacobs had it for £1189, CameraWorld for ~ £1230
   Which is only £10 cheaper than Wex price: http://www.camerapricebuster.co.uk/prod603.html

   Wacom 5 – ha – even though I wasn’t planning to get one – that’s the only thing I bought!
   Show deal was getting the free wireless kit.
   My small was £166 + wireless kit.
   I THINK the Medium was £329 + wireless kit.

   Hope that helps.

     Many thanks!! 🙂
     I was thinkin to go there just to get a lens and intuos5 🙂 but the trip will cost me around £80, so I better save this money for spyder 4 elite 😉
     Hmm what else I was thinkin of to get there…. maybe kata 220PL bagback.
     The main reason was to go there and play with nikon d800 and the d4 but Im going to nikon roadshow soon so will play with cameras over there 🙂
     And about the lens… 24-70, I have seen one at one of the UK airports for £1149 😉

   What about intuos5? is it good? I hope they make any progress with pen nibs so they will last longer 🙂

   Afraid I’ve only had a very short go with it and this is my 1st tablet so I have no frame of reference. I’m still scrolling by picking up and moving – ha!

   You get a set of spare nibs in the pen holder:
   5-standard
   1-Flex nib
   3-hard

   PS This is the stand I bought the Wacom from : http://www.1stcameras.com/
   They didn’t have any Nikon Lenses – only Sigma + Canon.
   Their website wacom prices are currently just like the show + include the wireless kit. They only had the Pen + touch variety.
