Biting the bullet - the Cube

[tashley]

Sigh, this is SO your fault (by which I mean everyone on here)...

I just ordered the Cube for delivery tomorrow. From Robert White in the UK who had a great deal, being the anniversary edition priced bagless Cube plus a spare and very cheap bag they had in stock. Total price is £1,403 including all taxes versus £1,673 if I had bought the regular package.

So you see, I am really just doing this to save money. Really.

Tim,

If the one you get works perfectly, you are welcome. If OTOH you happen to get a dog, then blame Don! :ROTFL:

(Sorry, couldn't resist -- and I seriously hope you don't get a dog! )

I have been already. The Dark Cubic Lord is now my master. All I need now is a camera plate so I can use the damned thing! And I am so glad I got the cheap bag too - it is a wondrous thing!

1850 euro ex VAT.... this is as much as I payed for my Alpha 900.... :bugeyes:

Triple Wow, serious congratulations Tim!

Tim,
Now that you are a cubist, one of your tasks, no your sacred duty, is to assimilate the un-assimilated.
Georg, are you next?

I.....will.... though actually at first shot the cube, though a thing of wonder, is no more useful to me than my 'frotto geared head. I expect this opinion to change when I get a plate that actually lets me mount a camera on it!

Shot with the Multiflex(PhotoClam) yesterday.
At $925 USD I couldn't fault it and I don't think the Cube at 1651 Euros would have done a better job.
Because it's a copy of the Cube,it doesn't have to be bad.
Would I have bought the real thing?
Of course,but only if the price was $925,even that is a lot of money.
