I was wonderig about going this year. I have never been. I had a quick look at the website and there doesn't look to be a great deal for analogue photographers. Maybe I am missing something but others in previous years seem to have said the same. I keep meaning to go but £6 entrance plus £8 parking plus food and travel says that there has to be something to make it worthwhile.

I don't think I'll be bothering with it this year. Last year's was 99% digital and I can't see this one being any better. I detest the NEC anyway!

Richard, I think you mis-represent Focus.
Its 50% yucky Photo / Wedding Photo Albums
49% Digital
1% the rest including Ilford, Kentmere & Fotospeed
Just look at the size and quantity of the stands tells where the profit is.
I generaly go but only as I live near by
I am almost always come away generaly disapointed

I have a free ticket (in my name) if anyone wants it. I shall not be going again.

Yes, you're probably right! Either way there's little of interest to the traditional photographer. It's just a computer show with pictures these days.

I normally do my photographic book shopping there - great selection.

I went to SWPP, so not sure if this is worth a visit. Got my pass and would probably attend Sunday's event..not worth missing a day of work for it.

Is there public transport to the event?
