2 visits to the US this year means 2 bags of @TheSporkful Cascatelli have made their way home. I’ve been podfluenced!

@Astr0Isha It weighs more, if that's too much is up to the individual. The price diff is also significant. I would recommend hiring both for a few days, take them for a spin and see which you prefer. For a big purchase, it's worth the money, imo.

@stalman Veeeery slow operation was what stopped me in the end, but it’s for sure a beauty in many other respects!

@Glitter_brawl I was encouraged as a child to always blow my nose “from the boots” and now that’s just in the ol’ brainbox forever. Bonus round: I recently learned my parents referred to the sound of their new doorbell as “the bong”, whereupon I had The Talk with them. Innocents, both.

@Astr0Isha @CorinneDinDin Yeah, cheaper than used and far cheaper than new from Canon UK. Lots of folks I know have bought this way with no issues that I've heard of.

@CorinneDinDin @Astr0Isha ...I've never experienced this myself, having had a couple of bodies purchased like this. However, it explains why the seller offers their own extended warranty, rather than it being via the manufacturer. Hey, I'm boring!

@Astr0Isha I’ve experienced them trying this so many times. Did it once or twice years ago, and never again. The value added to a festival to have good press images is worth them spending money on making sure their photographers are safe and rested, absolutely no question.

@stalman I'm averaging 3.5 years based on my purchasing since 2007 - the upgrade cycle from the Intel 16" to M1 Max was by far the quickest (2 years) and most significant yet. I'd expect to be back on ~3 years again now.

@EastMidRailway Hi, I booked a ticket for the 12:15 train on Sunday 18th from Loughborough to London, which is no longer scheduled. Is my ticket valid on other trains that day, or do I need to rebook?
