While that lens line up might work for you it certainly wouldn't do the job for me - I like to photograph birds and so need long lenses too...

To be honest I've not looked in much detail at what advantages they offer as the disadvantage of increased noise was an obvious issue so I turned them off. For me the incredible low light performance...

In my experience HTP does cause a noticable increase in noise, most obviously at lower ISO settings. Personally I have turned it off and won't be putting it back on! It's also worth switching off...

That's good advice, it would also be worth looking in Cley Spy (not too far away from you) they stock Velbon, Manfrotto and Giottos and often have good used ones in. An older Manfrotto 055 pro would...
