Unless it's for sports like indoor soccer or football, or the likes, but then the place should be sufficently lit. Even so, I wouldn't ever have a need for it then, so if that's true I will make it my goal to get one

Refurb price through Canon has dropped $80 for the mk2s. Purchased through the CLP with a body, you could get one for around $230.

$110? I told you I had some buyers that I had to turn down

If I didn't have 2x luma loops, I'd have keep the DR-1. Great strap, but it feels like body armor.

Yep, $109.73 to be exact
I loved the DR-1 as well but the two issues that SERIOUSLY bothered me was that when I walk, my bodies are dangling all over the place and when I kneel down to take a photo from the bottom, the lens/body touches the ground.
I needed something more protective. I spent a little over $200 for the Think Tank Digital Holster setup.

Yup. Try that with a 500 4.5L and a 100-400 on the other, and they'll bang into one another every few steps.

Unfortunately a solution like that wouldn't help for something like a 300mm 2.8

What did I miss?

Oh, hey Rockwell.
I need you to do some more testing for me. Yay or ney?

It's time for some food pics again! Another cooking party with the gf and her friends. The theme this time was Italian-ish. Everything was made from scratch, although I can't say it was very authentic, lol.

First, some "making-of" pics.

1. Making the wheat pasta dough

I can assure you the D800 is not worthy!

Was there anything else you needed tested?

Hiya Alex. You gotta teach Steven how to make gnocchi. A while back he tried and failed.

Did you use a ricer for the potatoes?
