Re: What have you just bought?

A Hoya 58mm ND8 and an NDX400 filter. If I just got the one I'll know I'll need the other instead, but with both at least I'll have the options and can combine them together.

The ND8 works great with the SB700 flash.

Though they probably won't get much use till late spring / summer.

Of course, such high premiums are also caused by the cost of medical treatment and reinforced by the number of people driving without insurance because of the cost.
It's no good pleading for sympathy now mate!

This is actually an example of when I think insurance can be a double edged sword..

Unfortunately, I think it's a case of medical bills having gone up because of insurance (after all , the companies can afford a lot higher bills than individual consumers), then the insurers have to put up their prices to cover the increasing medical bills.

Another example. Vet's prices. Prices for treatments at all my local vets surgeries have gone through the roof since the large insurance companies started offering pet insurance.
