Particularly like the watches. That's some set-up you have.

You must have a very nice wife to let you tie up her kitchen. :-)

Lovely shots- the setup seems to work well. Couldn't care a less what equipment is used :)

I would have thought the extra MP of the 5DMK2 would be superior for product photography
The Nikon D3s looks to be the best high ISO camera at the mo, coupled with the 105 Nikkor it should be great for hand held natural light shooting if you can handle the weight. Unfortunately Nikon don't do a MP-E65 equivalent.

Nice shots. I don't think most people realize how difficult it is to photograph items like this.

At first look I thought your black background was dirty/dusty. It was my monitor :oops:

While the 5D2 is a fantastic camera, it was really lacking in a number of areas where the additional MP did not matter as much to me anymore.
