2hours? its only 45minutes :confused:

we left at around 8am from our resort and reached the underground river before 9am or something then had to wait for our banca, finished the tour at around 12noon already, package includes lunch already then was on our way home by 2-3pm I think :D I also went for a swim there in Sabang haha

Hmm... I don't exactly remember. It felt like 2 hours. Heh. Maybe it was only 1 hour. ;)

I like the part where he seems to not believe the fps and he goes "Oh yeah" then proceeds to shoot then exclaims "That's like a machine gun". That was impressive. Heh. ;)

I really like the a77, I guess you could say I have a "crush" on it

Theres features it has that i see as being VERY useful to the things i tend to shoot, IE the rear screen and SteadyShot with every lens....

you have to go to a consolidator, I will check Filipino newspapers and ask my wife's friends in Canada how and where they get good priced tickets...this quotation is too much. it should be around $1200 round trip per person.

It has some nice features. A f2.8 on a zoom kit lens, machine gun fps, steady shot, etc. I'm developing a gear "crush" too. Heh. ;)

Ouch, Just ouch

A77
16-50 f/2.8
35mm f/1.8
50mm f/1.4
135 f/1.8

Tamron 180mm f/3.5 Macro

About $5000..And I'm not "comfy" with the system i built....but its about the best i can really do to what I'd "want"

A few of their lenses are just too darn pricey, their 70-200 is $2000 for example.... Their 100mm Macro is $750....

Sure building something Nikon or Canon would be probubly the same amount of money but id be more "comfortable" with the focal ranges and that...

all the $1200 flights i found were from april till june, also i don't want multiple airlines and stuff ,

i just want to get there, sitting on a plane for 20 hours is bad enough but hanging out in airports is worse ;)
