			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Last Sunday I went to 2 shows at the NEC &#8211; <a href="http://www.focus-on-imaging.co.uk/">Focus on Imaging 2009</a> and the <a href="http://www.boatandcaravan.co.uk/">Boat and Caravan</a> show.</p>
<p>The Outdoor show was just caravans, motorhomes, portable homes, tents, boats, etc. All interesting but nothing I lusted after (except maybe a kayak).</p>
<p>Some of the motor-homes were VERY expensive yet I thought few were of decent quality (i.e. furnishings and layout). I was really surprised at how big the show was and how many motorhomes there were &#8211; I didn&#8217;t think they were that popular on this small island. I certainly don&#8217;t see that many on the roads.</p>
<p>Focus on Imaging was also a big show and there was a lot to see, touch and listen to (e.g. lectures/demos). They even had models modelling for the public to take photos of.</p>
<p>I took photos at both shows (using my Canon 40D) and will upload them here this weekend. I also bought a monitor calibration tool (<a href="http://www.xrite.com/product_overview.aspx?ID=788">i1Display 2</a>) which I will try out this weekend on my 2 monitors &#8211; before editing my photos!</p>
