So.. I've been wrestling for a while now about what would be the best choice for my next camera investment.
And finally, today, I decided!

I'm getting a new camera bag!
:lmao::lmao::lmao:
Ok now before you say "OMG that's just like a woman!" consider this: I have four kids, three still in diapers. I am constantly changing between my normal bag, diaper bag, and ussually leaving the camera bag at home because it's an extra pain to lug around. That, or (confession here) I just throw my camera in the diaper bag *gasp!* This is a very very bad idea, because it was the original death of our old canon point and shoot.
A couple years back, my husband took the diaper bag out of the car while visiting my mother in law for Christmas...was in a hurry, and didn't realize the top was unzipped. Our Canon fell out and smacked on the pavement into a puddle
ale:
So... because I don't want that to happen again with my current camera..and because I want the option of actually taking the camera and everything else with me where ever I go..
I ordered a Kelly Moore Bag:mrgreen:
THERE! I made a decision! Now I can stop bothering everyone and go back to waiting for the D700 replacement
..Oh and the moral of the story? I really do think it's important to learn to use what you have to the best of its ability. I know I haven't pushed my equipment to the max yet, and I still have room to grow. As for lenses, even if I purchased the big 70-200..I know I would still mostly use my 50. It's exactly perfect for my style of shooting. If I do get into weddings down the road, though..I will at least plan on renting a good zoom lens.
Anyway.. I had to share because I think I realized something important. I'm doing this for the fun of it. Not to be a part of the most current/best gear race. I love shooting. period. And the less I focus on what I "don't " have..the more I can focus on using what I do have.
Happy shooting TPF!
