tomorrow will be the real test. I'll be able to get out (an in) to take some "real" photos. Planning on shooting our new master bathroom and getting out to the local estuary/marsh for some land/cityscape photos. -- flickr gallery | photo blog (rarely updated) | play mafia!
You never know with "classified" sales - this guy was as close to non-anonymous as you get considering I found him on photography-on-the.net and he'd been around there for a few years, plus he had a public blog linked in his sig with pictures of him, his wife, and his kid.
But, trust me when I say I'm even more glad than you that I didn't get a shiv in my back. -- flickr | Of faith, power and glory
Was looking for a new stealth camera for shooting on the streets. It's gets tough to walk around with the big boy cameras in the hood. Went to B&H yesterday because it wasn't in stock elsewhere. Good thing I did they gave an instant rebate (from Olympus) for $100.00 for the double kit
wow, what a killer deal. if you want caps, box with manuals, and a front cap, you can probably get all them at some photo forum for ~$20, a hood is another $50. you can then resell this for $1400 and fund a mark 2. haha
I hope your source is solid Wayne otherwise you might end up like BucketMan in this thread on POTN: »photography-on-the.net/forum/sho···t=839212 (TL;DR version: Guy ends up buying a 70-200 f/2.8L off CL only to get contacted about it months later by the police who demand he give it back to the rightful owner. POTN does what POTN does and ends up raising money, with the help of Adorama, for a 2.8 IS Mk II )
If you're sure, in spite of that, congrats on a great bargain! -- flickr | Of faith, power and glory
It’s not hot, just part of the aftermath of a relationship gone south, girlfriend finances boyfriends budding photography business, he flakes out on the payments and she is stuck with some of the gear.

I've been doing some tests and I can handhold this baby down to 1.5 seconds at 16mm. Shame it's 4x bigger than my Canon EF-s 10-22mm - I loved that lens for it's compact dimensions.
I`m disappointed that all my lenses are incompatible, they only work in manual focus, most of my auto-focus lenses are G or D type, and only AF-S, AF-I will work properly, my fault for not investigating this.
I am going out today for a walk with the dogs, and lugging my camera along, with the kit lens .
So hopefully I`ll have a few sample shots later.
I`m very happy that my old flash works, and that i can attach my BR-2A, so reverse lens photography works ok, the main reason i have the thing ...
OK, OK.. Now that all three 'new' (well, 2 new, 1 new to me ) boxes have arrived I figured I'd drop a shot in here.. The 60D and 17-70 have been here for a couple weeks to play with, but I just got the 10-20 last week. Now if only the weather (and health of the kids, darned cold season) would improve so I can go out and shoot some more -- I'm sick of following my dreams, from now on I'll just ask where they're going and hook up with them later. .
No Box, Just pic of Lens. Tokina 11-16mm F2.8. This sucker is WIDE on my Mark IV. Just got it in last night. Taken with my windows 7 phone.
That thing covers the whole sensor?
Negative. From around 11mm-12mm You will see vignette at corners, between 12-13 VERY VERY LITTLE almost not noticeable. After that its fine. I didn't want to pay for the 16-35 f2.8 II as its almost 1600.00 now with Canon's price increases. I'm saving that money for a 24L 1.4 II for my weddings. I really only need this as a 14mm F2.8 Prime. If I work the vignette good, I can stick with 11mm as well. -- RubenZamora.com Valley Sports Pics
That bites! I forgot about them not having the in-body motor, stupid on Nikon's part really. For some reason I thought they changed that in the newer ones, guess not. Glad it still works out for you though. . Something tells me you can do fine with MF anyways, lol. -- Images are Copyrighted and use is NOT permitted.
