There's a liquidation sale for a camera shop coming up, starts on the 28th and it's being run as an online auction.

edit: although the auction is online the items have to be picked up in person from Leicester. Bollocks!

Nobody that I saw anyway, just a load of weary & depressed looking normal workers behind the counters. Word is they close the shop down some mornings to shoot scenes for the show or other times it's done late at night so as not to interfere with day to day business.
Layout seemed a little different in real life but its been a while since I caught the show.
You see signs & stickers on some items saying "As seen on Pawn Stars" so obv trying to hawk the featured gear at a higher mark up than normal. Also a sign requesting that you dont take pictures in the direction of the cash desk that you see the boys working behind sometimes, prob moreso to protect the identity of some local trailer trash who's pawned his baby mommas gold teeth

Really trashy setup down the back too, loadsa Chumlee merchandise & you can even pose against a green screen setup type thing & have your pic "taken" with the Pawn Stars….wouldn't go again but obv worth a look once if you're a regular watcher of the show

Andy, all those were taken with a 300mm f2.8 at 2.5m minimum focus distance, the D800's 36MP resolution allows insane crops. The D800 is my works, I can use it as I fancy out of hours, the lens is the fathers. I have the nikkor 105mm micro lens for work macro projects.

Basically the 300mm lens is £4k, the D800 is £2k so stupid money but good fun.

Taken at hooe, devon (www.hooelake.org)
