  • Focus on Imaging 2010 Birmingham NEC

    I think Focus will be a particularly busy show this year. It starts next Sunday and runs until Wednesday (7-10th March) at the National Exhibtion Centre, Birmingham.

    I usually visit the show on the opening day and produce a round up of what's interesting by the end of the day. I will be doing the same this year, but I'll also be at the show on Monday.

    As my Twitter Tweets from PMA last week seemed to work well, I'll be doing the same again from Focus, so keep tabs on http://twitter.com/dpnowdotcom

    Is anyone here planning to go to the show?

    Ian

        We were.

        As Olympus is not there it has discouraged us from going. It will only add to my feelings that my birthday pressie still seems some way off.

            I'll be at the show on Sunday for a few hours, but I have to leave at noon for an off-site event for the rest of the day.

            I'm back all day on Monday, though.

            If anyone would like to meet up - please let me know

              I have preregistered but am a bit put off by stories about crowds and resulting limited access to stands. How bad is it?

                Hi

                if you get there early enough there is no problem. I have always been able to see and buy what I wanted to.

                Best regards

                  Sunday is the day I usually go and it can be busy at certain times, then it goes quiet. The week-days are supposed to be relatively relaxed affairs.

                    Another one for Sunday - coming with my partner, Dave who the regulars won't have met.

                    And I'll be wearing my new ring

                      "A new ring". I'm going to make a guess as to which finger and say congratulations! If I am wrong about the finger then it's just congratulations on getting a new ring.

                      best regards

                          Thanks Josh and Julia - yep, you're right

                          And looks like the visit to the NEC will probably be Tuesday now - back went last night so decided today wasn't a great idea.... and tomorrow I have to sit in and wait for new mobile to be delivered

                          So we're going for a culture day instead, to Baddesley Clinton

                            The show is busy and there is plenty to see (besides the world debut of the Panasonic Lumic G2 and G10 - quite a coupe for Panasonic UK and Focus!

                            My laptop battery is about to give out, hope to post a gallery of show pix later tonight!

                            Will continue contact via http://twitter.com/dpnowdotcom
