Well I've waited a long time for a camera upgrade... and my god did I upgrade! I needed a new camera, zoom lens, flash, and tripod, as well as a few other things for CDIABU in September. I went camera shopping this week and here what I got:
-Canon 5D Mark II - Super sexy body. Bit heavier than my XTi obviously, a bit trickier to use, but way better in every way imaginable. I got it last night in the mail and went out shooting today. I love it!
-Canon Battery Grip for 5DMII - pretty dang cool, it holds 2 batteries and if you run out of that you can change them for 6 AA batteries... very cool in a dire pinch!
-Canon 24-70mm f/2.8 L USM wide angle zoom lens - beautiful bg blur, very sturdy! quite heavy as well. my favorite lens now for sure!
-Canon 580 EX II speedlight - seems pretty fancy
-Hoya UV filter, Circular Pol, and Warmer filter too, seem pretty neat, used the UV today.
I think thats about it.. I still need a pod and some other minute things.
ah well
