Nikon 70-300mm AF-S VR Lens, Lowepro Flipside 300 and a set of Cokin GND filters - happy days!
So are you saying the Kenko brand is garbage or just UV's in particular.Originally Posted by kiwi
chuck the UV mate, it's garbage
The main reason its there is because I shoot the local motor cross and I would rather have one of them damages from flying dirt instead of the front lens element.
My other lens has a Hoya HMC UV filter and it has stopped dirt hitting the front lens
element a few times.

Bought the Canon 10-22mm UWA lens on Saturday, can't wait to get out and give it a workout. Unfortunately rain has put a dampener on things (has been raining a lot the past two weeks here in Korea, so not a lot of photography getting done).
Love it so far, very interesting perspective.
Picked up a Canon 200mm 2.8L II on ebay. Great condition and I love the lens - see this thread: Just caught the 'L' virus (200mm prime) - warning highly contagious for a photo and thoughts.

Just picked up a Spyder 3 Studio SR monitor/printer calibration system.
Was sick of my monitor and printer giving totally different results and didn't trust either of them. Sometimes I think I have more dollars (which isn't very much) than sense but I wasn't comfortable with my output quality and that was really annoying me. Will let you know how it goes.
Cheers

A Nissin Di866C flash, yeehar!
After a short stint with the 1D MK3, I've now traded it up for a 5D MK2.
I much preferred the FF system and as appealing as the 10FPS was to me, and the "full pro" features, it really wasn't the camera for me, had it been a 1DS3, it would have been a different story, but I much preferred (or was just used to the original 5D) so the MK2 was better in the long run.
If ever I make real money from this hobby, maybe one day I can get the 1DS series which the "ultimate" body to have for me
