POTN Aussie Club #5: Our focus rings rotate the other way too.

Hahahaha 30 minutes later. *EPIPHANY BOOOOF!!*

I was staying out of it (By actually processing some photos from yesterday. Serious.)

LOL...I've polished off a bottle of wine and I haven't left the seat in the last 90 minutes.

Things are moving slow!

I'm still processing from yesterday. At the beginning, I literally had 2,011 photos. Now, I've got 137 that I'm going to use and put up on my flickr and another 1,666 that I'm keeping but not using. That might get cut down even more if I can ever be bothered to go through them again, but maybe if I go through them again I'll find more that I want to use. Who knows.

Bargain priced 5D available through Trading Post if anyone is looking to pick one up.

Wow, that is a bargain. Surely you'd know you could at least get $1,500 out of a potential buyer?

I would love to contact that guy but I don't have any money to begin with
At 1000AUD hmmm.

If thats gen then it must be gone by now?
Still $1000 seems a bit sus.

I was thinking the same thing I highly doubt he'd hold a 5D for anyone. Someone will pick that up very soon.

I love live music photography, so I'm definitely going to pick up a 5D eventually and then get a 40D or 50D for sports. Then when I've got enough money, a 1D

There are a lot of people on Trading Post who have no idea. Someone else is selling a 20D + accessories for $2200. That one definitely falls into the "tell him he's dreaming" category.

If you are interested it wouldn't hurt to give the guy a call. If it's sold he might pull the ad if he gets sick of phone calls.

I picked up a 5D for $1050 a couple of months ago - so there are bargains to be had.

I wonder if brenno's $3800 1Ds Mark III turned out to be legit.

For a $1000 I'm interested only problem I'm inQLD and theres no photo or info about it.
Has the mirror fallen off and he thinks its not worth much, is it bashed about etc

C'mon Brenno what happened with the 1Ds 3.

Woah! He's definitely dreaming.

I'd love to give him a call but I think I'll look for a 40D/50D first, that way it's still good for sports and music. If I got the 5D first, I'd be at the same level for sports as I am now with my 400D in terms of AF and fps, despite how much I'd love it for the music.

That is a bargain. A teacher at my school got his 5D for $1,800 about 18 months ago I think.

$1000.. with battery grip. What the?

a question for anyone that's knows something about flashes/studio lights.

If i were to be using two studio lights/flashes, and wanted to use my 430EX as the hair light (with snoot), is there a way to do this? to trigger all the flashes? or would the only way be using wireless triggers?

i was going to trigger the studio lights by cable, because i cant afford the radio triggers as well as all the studio gear.

Optical triggers should do the trick.
