Just one question on the colour of the F10 that was mentioned as the Sophisto Grey? Can this be confirmed please as it looks like the Space Grey that I have seen in pics and the flesh but could be wrong. It does look the bees knees. I thought the Sophisto Grey was much darker, almost black?

Thanks.
Photos (particularly on a monitor) can be tricky. Also flash can add complications. The Sophisto Grey (I think that is what the photo is?) in that photo almost has a brown hue on my screen but I have seen it live on a 750i ("Dark Graphite Metallic" in U.S.) and it does not have a brown hue. Also, in daylight it IS very dark. Not close to black but darker than it appears in in Jraids (great) photoshoot. The Space Grey is a medium grey as I think you would describe it.
