Minolta Dynax 9
Having used Minolta 35mm slr cameras for many years, moving up to the Minolta Dynax 9 was a natural progression, people always want the top of the range model, no matter what their level of experience-i am no different. The camera itself is beautiful- operationally and in design/finish. The very popular '2 control dials(front and back)' set up has been taken from the earlier 700si and 800si models which had a big following, the camera back layout and top plate dials have been transferred almost directly from the 600si classic- another amazing camera with a cult following, the result is a camera that is instinctively easy to use, so easy in fact, a manual isn't even required for those used to Minolta AF cameras. The front and back control dials control aperture and shutter speed, the two top plate dials control exp and flash compensation and exposure mode and drive modes. On the back of the camera is auto exposure lock linked with metering mode selection(spot, center-weighted and 14 segment multi-pattern all user selectable) and flash mode selection. There are 21 custom functions, very fast motor drive, mirror lock up, viewfinder blind, dof-preview etc etc. There is no need to go into the full specification of this camera because it is available to see online, to cut a long story short i will say-it is very comprehensive including the highest maximum shutter speed available on any camera bar 1-(Minolta dynax 9xi) and the highest standard flash sync speed of any camera bar 1-(Minolta dynax 9xi). The build quality of the camera is breathtaking, all metal dust and weather sealed design, this camera is very heavy and designed to take professional abuse. Compatible with all Minolta af lenses, but some lenses may not work fully when using flash, due to the newer flash metering technology in this camera(the individual lenses compatibility would have to be checked prior to use or purchase. VC-9 vertical control grip available(but expensive and hard to find) The automatic exposure results from this camera, are as you would expect of a pinnacle film slr just about as close to perfect as you could possibly get, when in an auto or semi auto mode, i haven't had any bad exposures at all. As the top of the Minolta AF slr range, i cannot recommend this camera enough-it is fantastic and regarded by many as in the top two 35mm slr cameras ever made along with the Nikon f6. It is currently unbelievable value for money but prices are starting to rise again, so be quick if you want one in good condition).

Canon Eos 1DS
This is a really great camera-i don't have many complaints. When you first hold the camera, you will notice the amazing build, the weight and quality of finish will astound you. It feels carved from a solid block of metal. Unlike the Canon Eos 1v which it was modeled from, and is plastic/grp covered metal, the Eos 1DS is metal covered by metal. The build in vertical grip means no loose joins to wobble when heavy lenses are attached, and All top plate, back& vert grip buttons are properly weather sealed, along with the battery compartment. This camera is full frame, so there are no issues with using your old 35mm Eos lenses with this camera, but you cannot use crop sensor lenses. If your used to other manufacturers camera's, the sheer sophistication of this camera might be initially quite scary, but the basic control interface using two control dials front and back, doesn't take long to learn. I cannot list the full specification as it would fill a small book :-) but will run through the basics. All the usual exposure modes are there. Program Shutter Priority Aperture Priority Manual Along with Canon's own- B mode-for long exposures Depth mode-for maximum depth of field. Metering modes are well complimented with Multi Pattern Partial Spot, can be linked to the 45, yes 45 focus points :-) The auto focusing is very sophisticated and very fast(not as fast as the later variants of this camera), its easy to select individual focus points using the control dials, but accuracy is good even if you leave the camera to decide which focusing point to use, the only time i have had issues with 'wrong focus point selection' is when taking shots close-below 10 feet. There is though, a short cut button, next to the exposure lock button, which switches the camera to a pre-selected focus point of your choice(Memorized) and very quickly. Auto flash is multi zone E-TTL, not A-TTL, due to the age of the camera(2002), the flash results are generally very consistent, i find most accuracy is had using this camera with a Canon flash left in High Speed Sync mode, using the Flash-Exposure lock button with spot metering(to the left of the shutter release)to lock in the flash exposure, leaving the camera to sort out the ambient flash balance- i am very happy with the results. Flash can also be linked to the focus point in use. Hotshoe flash sync's up to 1/250 in normal, or up to 1/8000 in high speed mode. Studio flash syncs up to 1/125. Hotshoe Canon flash including the 430ex/430ex2/550ex/580ex/580ex2(weatherproofed)can all be used wirelessly or on a ttl flash sync lead(full ttl and high speed sync retained). In wireless mode, a 550ex/580ex/580ex2, must be used as a master on the camera hotshoe, with other wireless flash used as slaves-this is easy to set up. The Canon ST-E2 transmitter can also be used to control off camera flash, in place of a hotshoe mounted 'master'. This camera can be used tethered to a computer, and files can be sent wireless, using the relevant software. The sensor is 11.1 megapixel, the images when shot at the native iso of 200 or below are lovely, go to iso 400 or higher and you will see noise, at the high iso's-plenty of noise, so make sure your PP skills are up to scratch. The camera has 20 custom functions and 31 personal function. Apart from sensor noise at iso 400+, there are no problems TBH If you can find this camera for a good price, it makes a good investment.

Ministry Of Sound Presents AWOL - Live CD 1995
If your really into jungle, drum and bass or whatever you want to call it, this really is one of the most important CDs you could buy, because it is the best example of jungle at its most raw and tearing in its proper environment ie live in a club. For the younger drum-headz that know nothing about Amen tunes this is a great eye opener. The live club atmosphere with people shouting,blasting air-horns and the sheer weight of the tunes will bring nostalgia and goosebumps to every listener. The Sound quality is great for the atmosphere but not for the tunes, which seem quiet compared to the Mcs -GQ and Fearless, yes it is bearable, but the tunes are so heavy you have just got to turn up the volume, making the Mc's almost unbearably loud. I must add at this point that GQ is an amazing Mc probably the best there has ever been in jungle/drum and bass. Mc Fearless also puts in a good show. Even though i haven't given this CD an excellent rating(due to the sound quality)The question is not whether you should buy this CD if you see it for sale which in itself is quite a rare thing, but how long do you have before someone else buys it before you. BUY ON SIGHT but it isn't going to be cheap!
