Umm sorta puts you off em
And I liked the look and idea and price of the lx80
You wouldn't be a happy camper if you forked out for the starlock in oz it ain't cheap !

Lol when i first came across the forum i thought it was total spam junk myself but they are 60,000+ strong and have sections for each part of the world. I pref it over iis because of the level of active users lol, but this place is always home base hahah :)
