It's my favourite T-Shirt :p Never owned a single Sunday part but I like the colour :blush:

Pocket wizards are great, I bought mine over some of the cheaper triggers because its a whole system you're buying in to with possibilities down the line for multiple TTL flashes, remote cameras and so on. The new version solves my problem of faster syncs speeds too!

Point and shoots have come a long way eh? Would love to get a DSLR but can't justify the expense right now :(

:withstupid:

Here are a couple I posted a week or so ago, but have altered the lighting levels, these were taken from the back of my place just before 11:00PM during a full moon, 60 sec exposure.

Hey Guys,

Has anyone had experience with either of the following lenses? Are there any other options i should be looking at for a crop body?

Sigma 70-200 f2.8
Canon 70-200 f4 L (non is)
Sigma 17-70mm f2.8-4.5

I'm looking at a line up the will happily handle weddings and motorsport/equestrian/MTB events and have about 2k to spend.

Much appreciated

Dan

I'd have thought the Canon 24-70 f2.8 L would be better for weddings. You could get that for about 2k shipped from asia. IS model is rumored to be released really soon too...
With motorsport etc IS is a great advantage.
I use the Canon 15-85 IS USM a fair bit and love it. Perhaps consider that too.

Im a big fan of my 70-200L f4... I sometimes wish I had longer distance, like the 100-400L - but if I did splooge on one of those I would keep the 70-200 for walking around. I have it complimented with the 18-40 f4 L or whatever it is, and a 50mm prime... Seems to be a good collection so far :)
