Hi Peter,

Does that use the standard B&H large Barrell lens? Or something else? I'm not familar with the British B&H Models...

If it's the standard lens, I think I've got one - $10 + shipping -- I think it's about $14 for shipping to the UK ... Too bad I didn't know you needed it -- I could have put it in the box with the feature you bought...

Email me if that's what you need and I'll dig it out...

Hi Steve,
Managed to get a lens locally but thanks for reply,got stung by customs on the feature,they seem to have dropped the total down to £18 for merchandise or £35 for a gift anything over pays up,all to do with EEC rules,best wishes,Peter.

I always put Gift. But I didnt realise there was a limit for packages marked gift [Eek!]

All I can say is that I have got away with it up till now with packages marked as gift....well at least so far.

Customs, what a pain in the A.se they are [Mad]

Steve, They use the Large lens like the 1500 series etc.

Kev.

Hi Kev,I kept the label from the parcel and the Revenue & Customs charges for goods imported in to the European Union with a value over £18 or £35 in the case of gifts are subject to Customs charges(unquote).You would think it would be more relaxed in the case of second hand goods or perhaps a nominal charge in this respect,best wishes,Peter.
