DonNguyen

andino

haha photography can get expensive fast, just like cars and cycling

tC2_thumper

yeah, if I was smart I would have stopped spending on the car in college and spent more on the camera. Im only at about $6000 in equipment.

HaYnSktC

id be happy with the ef-s 10-22mm =)

I got new lighting equipment and showed in the photo.

Canon 20D with 17-50mm Lens and flsh.

what lighting equip did you get? and is it battery pacs? or just straight to an outlet....looks like a nice wattage in the shot

ADRdesignCo

nice shot chris! i thought you had a lip kit tho? well ast least the last time i saw you at trungs. haha

don, thanks for the tip. im trying to go all canon lenses but man that lens is def up there in terms of pricing, but i still want it. haha.

MysTiKchRis

oO let me try out the lens before you sell it.

MysTiKchRis

its a Canon 580EX Flash with Norman stand and umbrella and wireless remote trigger.

ADRdesignCo

def man just get me on aim

stillmotion

wow... I have that flash, just never used it that way... only on the shoe. Thats a pretty good idea though. I still am not very good as changing the light settings on the flash... I can never seem to get the settings right, but with long exposures like I shoot, the flash doesnt need to be perfect.

DonNguyen

forgot about memory cards...

i've got about 14gb's total between my memory cards....

nice shoot, that a pretty tall umbrella right there, nice lighting. I need to practice my flash too

Ro_Ja

o_O That's exactly what I have, except I have the XTi body. I just tried out my new 55-250mm lens the other day. Good stuff!

stillmotion

now I have always used smaller media cards... I done have a single card over 1gb because I dont want to have a card go bad on me with all of my photos on it, ie. weddings, or when I mount the camera to my car... Am I just paranoid? or does anyone else only use smaller cards rather than bigger 4gb cards?

Ace83

yeah i dont want an overly large card for same reason.. but now it has a recovery software but we never know. I have an 8 Gb Extreme IV and that's the biggest i wanna go

DonNguyen

i usually stick to 4gb cards cuz i've heard about some cameras sometimes having problems with the larger ones...

ADRdesignCo

same here. i dont plan to buy anything bigger than 4 gigs. i might even get 2 more 2 gigs instead of one single 4 gig. i did have a CF die on me once (not with the rebel) so i am a bit paranoid. lol

hey ro_ja, isnt it a great set for less than 500? lol. the quality is great considering the price :D!
