I had some stuff stolen from my car a couple of weeks ago, the evening before leaving on a trip to Africa. It was probably my satnav that attracted the thief, but he also took my binoculars (Leica 10x50BA) from the glove compartment, and my 1.4x, 2x, 12mm extension tube, 25mm extension tube and my light meter (Sekonic 608) from the boot. If anyone hears of any such items being offered for sale, I'm sure my local police will be interested.

Canon EF 1.4xII Extender - Serial No 15309.
Canon EF 2xII Extender - Serial No 15630.

Cheers.

Phil Shaw.

Sorry' to hear this, but at least they didn't get your cameras and lenses - that would have been a real disaster the night before a major trip. Hope they get caught.. you might notify the local pawn shops and keep an eye on Ebay.
