5D Arrived Today!

I got my 5D today!!!! Ahhh I'm sooo excited to use this bad boy (even though I've been using one for over a year now, but now I have my own!)... Once the batteries charge, and I get done with the work day I'm off to find a duck!!

I always love getting to edit my signature to (thats the best part isn't it!) !!

Congrats on the new baby!

Just a tradition.

Congratulations! You are going to love it! I am extremely impressed with the quality of the image files that camera produces.

The duck thing seems to be some sort of tradition, I am sure an old timer who knows the first instance of this can explain.

I figure someone got a new camera, and posted their first picture and it was of a duck?

Congrats on the 5D, they are very cool, very capable, and if this is your first full frame digital...it will be an experience that is worth every penny. Granted you have been using one, but there is nothing like ownership.

SWEET!!! Congrats, Homey!

I'll be waiting for some duck shots. I have been divided between getting the 5D or a MacBook Pro (photo processing). Your duck shots may sway my decision towards getting a 5D.

Peace,

I wish the tradition was taking pictures of something a little more accessible than ducks. How's this sound

"I just got my new XYZ camera/lens. Off to take pictures of the sofa !"

Congrats.....Still waiting for the 5d replacement...

Congrats on your new 5D! Now post the Duck!

I must say though, I bought my 5D a few months ago and I have yet to take a photo of a Duck!

Welcome to the 5D club! Make sure post some pictures here to celebrate your new acquistion.

Speaking of which, did you just have a visit from the title fairy?
