Cheers mate, will be watching like last time although it went on till pretty late. Really interested to see how the Panny and Samsungs compare since we've had no reviews on the Es8000 yet.

ps: was about to reply to your thread in the other place but it seems to have disappeared. Anyways, signed up here instead :)

Feel free to send me PMs if you need to, but please don't post the same question on the forum and in the PM. I don't have the time to respond twice, so please post in the main forum only - it'll usually get a faster response. Thanks!

Thanks David, I'm sure it'll be fun. Think there might be some long hours though, might want to carry some refreshments  ;D.

Personally, I'm getting my D8000 delivered tomorrow, overwhelming feeling is more one of relief at having finally made up my mind. Can't wait to start tinkering though.

By the way, thanks for the post with the pre & post calibration pics at BB. It'll help me explain the next purchase (colorimeter) to the missus.

Hope you have a great trip and please thank Robert from all of us for hosting the event.
