New toy just arrived in the mail today

Can't wait to try it out. Finally some control over my flash, instead of my old auto-everything 380EX :lol:

And of course, sourced from the right place :wink: Thank you gents (you know who you are!).

Yeah I get all mine delivered to work, I have had a bad experience in the past when a film scanner was delivered to my home and was just left there by the courier, and got stolen (all that was left was the packing slip). Doesn't help when they leave it on the front landing of my house :roll: Least insurance covered it and I got a new one, but still ...

I forget the name, but it was a big company too. And yes it requried a signature - blank on the docket left on my doorstop.
