Ok now I have a shiny new S5500 and 512mb memory card :D

I have to re-learn how to hold a camera now I don't have a box-shaped one.

And god only knows what all these settings do :lol:

Now I just need a case...or bag...I'm not really keen on the official Fuji codpieces :shock:

Do you think these hold the camera with the adapter ring attached?

Cheers James, I spent ages looking through Camera websites and online reviews last night when I should have been doing other things.... :wink:

Anyway, now that you've got it, don't forget to point the thing at the occasional train for me :D

Weeellll ....... I was actually thinking more along the lines of bridges, tunnels, stations, viaducts etc, although the occasional train would be cool too :P

It's currently the plan.

If it's raining I might go to the Trainwest model railway exhibition at Chippenham, if sunny, head for the diesel gala. Back home in time for the 37s up Filton Bank 8)

I think the wife will be wanting to do something non-railway related on the Sunday... :lol:
