Here goes another grand

[DocFrankenstein]

:shock: Must.... resist... buying... more... lensessss.... :shock:

Why didn't anyone warn me how addictive it was? :(

First I spend a grand for S1 IS and accessories. Now I bought the rebel yesterday :? The sales people didn't tell me what I was getting into.

Buying lenses is only a matter of time now :twisted:

Right now the rebel is lying in his box and I'm taking off to a cycling trip. I'm taking S1 IS cause I know it better. Will test rebel when I get home.

I won't have anything to eat at the end of my next school year. :lol:

I'm an idiot too. Got the D60, then sold it for the 10D. The number of lenese I've bought/sold has staggered my mind. I'm now relatively happy with the 16-35L, the 50 f/1.4, 35 f/2, 100 f/2.8 Macro and the 70-300 DO. I'm done, darnit.

Until, of course, the replacement to the 10D comes out... Yikes.

Doc:
Your survey is interesting but flawed. It should read as follows:


Am I an idiot:

1. No.
2. Yes, you're one of us.

This way, the question makes more sense to us idiots. It isn't likely to change the results of the survey, either. :wink:

well, it's just a phase everyone here has to go thru, i believe.

u'll be bouncing in and out piles of lenses for a while until u finally own everything u need, a whole collection which fully covers ur shooting range, in another word, you are set.

until then, oh boy, it's gonna be a lot of fun and pain :wink:

I'm making adjustments. I'm gonna try to have 3 lenses only. Right now I have 4. Too much overlapping. So I'm selling them and I have 2 Sigma lenses coming to my door on Wed. 1) 24-70 f/2.8 Ex and 1) 70-200 Ex f/2.8. I will save a little and get a super TELE later one to complete my range from 24-200 +

i guess its about 4 months now, i got a 300d with a kit lens and memory...about a month ago i started actually using it more than once a week, and realized i could do cool things with it, so i got a 50mm f1.8

and a week ago i got a 70-200L f4 which i have barely used...

next goal is to pay off my fraternity dues, plan a big road trip this summer, and get a 17-40 f4 L just cause i want one...the kit lens is great, but if i ever sell the rebel, id like to have that focal range in my arsenal...

i really want a fisheye too...but ive tried a few, nothing is really fishy on the 300d, sorta sucks

What are you talking about Belmondo.. that is what it says... :roll:

[Roy NN7DX]

I can't tell you how much flack I've caught in "the war zone©" for posting things like:

Help, I'm hemorrhaging hundred dollar bills

The up side is that after you have done this for a while you will have some extra camera things to sell when you are going to hemorrhage another grand or two on new stuff... The healing power of self-delusion... If that would only work on my wife who remembers what my For Sale items originally cost...

LOL

Thing one:
I intended my poll options to be like this:
1)Yes
2)No
3)Now, you're one of us (so don't fret it)

But it was 5 am and I'm not used to this forum interface... so the options turned out funny :shock: :lol: I meant no disrespect.

Thing two:
I realized the difference between a 600$ bike and a 100 dollar one. After I've biked from Toronto to Niagara and back. I also regret not spending 50 bucks for a good seat (My ass hurts like hell)

Thing three:
I have some pics of the falls. Downloading them right now, will post some later.

I will start studying rebel soon.

I'm the only one who voted no :lol:
