Yahoo!! A Canon 7D arrived for me yesterday!

**Boofhead** · 28-04-2010, 9:18pm

Not as exciting as a new camera but my new Manfrotto 625 quick connect adaptor arrived yesterday. This will go on my monopod to save a lot of screwing and unscrewing adaptor plates!

Really minor in the grand scheme of things but hopefully it'll make life a bit easier for me when shooting from a tripod - just got a Nikon ML-L3 remote for the D50.

Bought myself a new lens today - Nikkor 50mm f/1.8D. Have yet to drop it on the camera and play with it but I'll be giving it a good working out over the weekend!

ahh but alas my dear friend mercho .. that CZ badge indicates that this is very much a winner.

Not the traditional item to get excited about, but I've just bolted into my PC a new 1TB internal hard drive and another 2GB of RAM....mmmm the speeeeeed!

**MarkChap** · 08-05-2010, 3:15pm

Just picked up a BG-E7, Battery Grip for my 7D

Picked up some camera armor for my 5D II, its always such a worry when hanging around on ropes with my camera swinging around with all my metal gear, at least I can be a little less worried now. Its make the body a little chunky but I'd perfer chunky over damaged.

A nice relatively cheap purchase this time - a Manfrotto 026 Umbrella Swivel - oddly and confusingly shown on many websites upside down...

Beats the pants off the plastic HK junk....
