Aghhhh the 50D looks really nice but it should of been named a 40D Mark II, same body, just a few more features. I don't think I'll ever be able to afford the 50D. And I've read on DPreview that the 40D is only weather sealed at the battery and CompactFlash compartments, so it doesn't seem...

hahaha! I love this!! I really love the lighting/strobist style of your photos.

Wow! I love them, especially #1 and #3. Not too fond of #2, though, as I'm not sure what's going on. The first one, I love the B&W conversion, and the processing of the last one is wonderful! I do not like that the flare kind of covers them in the last one, but I'm sure you couldn't have...

Okay, I have decided to switch to Canon from Sony. Not that I have been unhappy with Sony, it's just some problems I had with the camera being purchased overseas and then some upgrading problems and what not. I'm selling my camera and lenses to help with my savings. I have been looking at the...

Yay! A Sony supporter on TPF! I wouldn't recommend Sigma lenses for Sony though. There have been many instances where the Sony AF is too fast for Sigma's lens' gear's and they end up stripping. Tamron (17-50mm f/2.8) is a really good choice. The Sony lens skieur has is a VERY good lens too...

If the D3 is going for a reasonable price, go for it! It can be your landscape camera in Full frame (FX) mode and then your sports camera in crop (DX mode) and all Nikkor lenses will work with it!

It's kind of the angle that gets me, but that's just my opinion. Lighting is great though. I agree that the heels do not work in this, flip flops since she's in a bikini? or barefoot maybe?

Sony is great. Although, there have been more complaints about the A350 than the A300. If you like the Live-View, I'd say go for the A300 because it's the exact same as the A350 except it has (slightly)faster FPS shooting and better noise performance.

I have nothing to say about the sharpness, but I will recommend something. If you go on eBay, you can find some quality remotes for quite cheap. Phottix is one that comes to my mind. Or look up V2s Wireless Remote for 30D.

I use really cheap emergency blankets from Wal-Mart and my results come out quite good. But I know you're not going to resort to that. On eBay, there is a seller, "2dreammaker" or something, and they sell many reflector items and such for quite cheap. Good luck.

Welcome Jeff!! I'm from the Charlotte area! Not too far away! And I have the same camera! You'll love it, no doubt about it! Get out there and shoot and post them back here!

I actually saw some ISO shots from this camera and they were preety decent for a P&S. And it was really cheap too. Congrats.

If you want to use your Dynax lenses and not have to purchase new ones for a while, get the Sony. Minolta AF lenses are ready to work with all Sony DSLR's.

I believe he is talking about the brand of filter makers, "B + W". If not, then I wouldn't be quite sure.

I just dowloaded the trial version and it's actually really nice, I think. You have quite a few film choices and options. The only thing I think they could do to it, is make it a bit more in-depth. It's a bit too simple. But I like it. I'm certainly not going to purchase it, but it's going to be...
