He wouldn't have know she lives over there (and happens to be Bailey's best friend). And I don't want to provoke some size 15s... ![]() ![]() It all makes sense now!

It's the curse of the Carhartts. Can't be explained.

You know it's kind of funny you say that because when I was down in Washington D.C. during the peak of the cherry blossoms, I actually saw a lady with a Digital Hassy with a Gitzo tripod taking a photo of the National Monument. It was very bulky but she was able to carry it around like DSLR.

The 1Ds MK III is much cheaper than the Hassy and the 21 MP count is just about on par with the lower H2D model which is $24k. ![]() I wonder how much of the price is the name? I saw some of Jo's shots and while they are very nice, they don't seem really different (except the exotic locations) from the other shots I see around here. Maybe the difference is in the big prints. .. It's Permie's world, we just live in it! ~CDS

Maybe the difference is in the big prints. and to be completely honest, I'm not selling my M3 (I think it'll be fine, fixed) and I'm not going nikon, hasselblad or Leica (or anything else), not upgrading the M3 to the DS...not anything. I'm just tired and browsing. I don't have too many shopping interests except camera gear and tanzanite....so I just like to look. and speaking of being tired...I think I'll say g'night Gracie ![]() Gnite Permie! Dream of 1Ds MK IIIs jumping over your head as you sleep.
