Nicer weather, great day to take some pics with the 60D.

Love the first shot

What was your jpeg compression/quality setting?

I'm cured - it was in fact a corrupt color management profile. I was finally able to delete mine and rebooted and now the photo in question looks the same in all applications

a relief.

The fellow in the Lightroom forum said it is so so very common for windows users to have corrupt color management profiles...

This is the shot that always looked like his fur was smudged without detail when viewed in my Firefox. The lens is clean - the circles are OOF snowflakes

OK! I did it! My 60D is on the way.....

$874.99 from the The Imaging World
10% off coupon from ebay
3% back from Mr. Rebates
$25.20 in ebay bucks
Bought the 9000 mkii printer for $349 + 45 shipping to get the $400 rebate


Plus I paid with my Discover card so I get an extra 1% back. I am so cheap it hurts. Now all I need is a lens

More money in your pocket to buy a real good lens.

Yep - its never the right time to cheap out on a lens

Congrats BTW !

After all rebates, what's your final price?

So the best I can figure it:

$874.99
349.99
45 shipping
$1269.98
-$88 coupon
-$30 cash back from Mr Rebate (caps at $30)
-12.70 discover
-$25.20 ebay bucks
-$200 from sale of printer (estimated)
-$400 AMEX card from rebate

$514 for body.

more crocus . . . . on-call shifts finished today; may be next weekend I'll be able to out and shoot

Well I just purchased a 70-200mm 2.8L for my newly acquired 60D. What a beast of a lens. The autofocus is super fast and quiet compared to my other 2 lens (kit 18-135mm IS 3.5-5.6 and Niffty Fifty 1.8). Cant wait to do some more shooting. also picked up a manfrotto tripod and ball head with the $200 lens rebate so I got the tripod kit for free.

Next the 580EX 2 flash and the 24-105L F4 glass. Gotta save some more money first though, I'm TAPPED OUT OF CASH!!!!!!

Nicer weather, great day to take some pics with the 60D.

I'm sad, by the time the weather turned nice here today, I was too far into cleaning my apartment to drop everything and take the camera out.

I did play with the 18-135mm kit lens a bit today, I'll be loaning it to a friend soon and wanted to see what could be expected of it. Pretty decent lens, even at 135mm.

Thinking of upgrading from a XSi and saw that canon has them refurbished for $800 how many years warranty does it include the usual 1 year?
