and interestingly, a usb cable fits neatly into an ethernet card socket.

So does a modem cable.

Decided to be a tight wad and got a

I have joined the forum recently , and just started posting.
I have just traded in my 5D for a 1D Mark III which I am enjoying quite a lot.
So all the best

Boy you know how to make a first impression
Mk3.Glad you said traded in not up
Whats your intrests?

Well, as I said at the other part of the forum I am an enthusiastic amateur, trying to photograph anything anywhere, but I love landscape and nature in this beautiful country,
I shoot a lot of swimming for my sons swimming team, and I like macro or portraits of my family as well.
The MKIII seems to be a very good allrounder, the live view is fantastic on a tripod for anything on a tripod, even for cheating on your exposure, as it has live exposure feature.
The 5D was fantastic and I would say the picture quality at least after only 2 wks with the MarkIII is very even. The MKIII looks the better tool no question about that.
Thanks for the welcome
have a good day,

zsolt

Whos the second? I know wazza wants one.
Picked up my new LCD cant wait to plug it in. 22" should be big enough.

Managed to get kids PC running so they can have my old 17" dont want my girls to get eye strain from the flicker of a CRT

hehe, I think you will find that 22" is more than big enough but sometimes I do wish I had another screen

I wouldn't mind a mk3, I am sure chris would have one 2 if he had the $$$ just lying around.
