Phamster, thanks for the info! I do have a lot of Elinchrom stuff already, but I guess I need some way to power them. Or get something else. I don't think they sell AB's in Sweden. Not that I've seen at least and I really wish that things I get can work with my Elinchrom stuff as well in studio.

I just pulled the trigger and ordered a 5D Mark II. I'm feeling a bit nauseous about spending so much money on a camera body for non-professional purposes, but I'm sure the feeling will go away once I get my hands on the camera!

Ha! Well, I sold a whole slew of (mostly) EF-S lenses to help finance the 5D2, so my wife is as understanding as someone with no interest in photography can be. Now I just need to decide if I want to keep the 450D as a second body or sell it to make my bank account happier...

A behind the scenes image from a music video production for a local band. The banded wanted something which doesn't show all the details of the girl and I thought this was satisfactory. The conditions were very dim (in a men's club), so I used ISO3200.

Personally I like this one. The other shot has its own story, but this one just seems to speak to me.
