  1. @harperphoto "Dropped it onto a gravel drive" - Momentary panic until we realised that was your lens, not ours!
  2. New at LFH: The Nikon R1C1, an incredibly flexible flash kit which will transform your macro photos. Details, prices: bit.ly/K23AyV
  3. Fancy trying a fisheye lens but not sure what they all do and which type is right for your camera? Check out our blog bit.ly/IKNBWq
  4. @zootcadillac If you want the lens Fri-Sun that's a 3-day hire. We deliver or you collect from us Thu, you send it back Mon.
  5. @maninsuitcase Sorry Chris, no plans for the Sigma 120-300mm f/2.8 OS. Drop us an email if you want the too-long-to-tweet explanation.
  6. @pernfors88 LOCOG's rules, not ours. Olympics spectators *may* publish (but not exploit) photos; and may not even publish videos or sound.
  7. @pernfors88 LOCOG ticketing conditions bit.ly/xuZ0lm treat all the Olympic venues equally, so photo restrictions should be the same.
  8. You'll be amazed how much photo gear fits within the Olympics ticketing regulations! Full details in our blog: bit.ly/yTG5c5
  9. Official clarification of the London 2012 photography guidelines - they're surprisingly generous. Details on our blog: bit.ly/xQB0ch
  10. Less than 6 months to the start of the London Olympics. We accept bookings up to 6 months in advance if you hire for a week or longer.
  11. New at LFH: Zeiss Distagon T* 18mm f/3.5 ZE. Superb lens for the serious landscape or astro photographer. Details: bit.ly/vcUdYI
  12. @mkmacd Contact us after New Year Mike, and we'll try to make it up to you for yesterday's delivery issues.
  13. @mkmacd Lens was actually delivered pre-12, but to a neighbour! Don't know why, that's totally against instructions. Sorry.
  14. @mkmacd Courier networks are overloaded. Couriers are in direct contact with Adrian and keeping him informed. Sorry for any inconvenience.
  15. @mkmacd We don't have any outstanding orders in your name, Mike, so we're not sure what you think is supposed to be happening...
  16. @mkmacd You're very welcome to hire something for the holiday season. Hire for 7 days, get 7 days free. But stocks are dwindling fast!
  17. @Photograferry Sorry about the courier problems. Funny how Xmas catches them unawares! We've been promised it *will* be collected today.
  18. @saz_chapman Please contact us ASAP about your order for a 70-200mm f/2.8 ... only 30 minutes before dispatch deadline ... 01628 637741
  19. @Lynn_Htun We need the 85/1.4G back on Monday for another customer. It won't be possible for you to extend your hire again. Sorry.
  20. @Lynn_Htun Please contact us re the 85mm f/1.4G you have on hire. Neither the phone number nor email address we have for you is working!
