| Bits and pieces that I've picked up... |
| Bodies (buried and otherwise). |
| s5000. | In hiatus. |
| a1100. | Long story... Waiting for the CHDK chaps to catch up. |
| 400D. | Currently on light duties. |
| 50D. | Recently gripped.(20090704) |
Lenses (I really need to invest in something short(done)). |
| Tamron 18-270/3.5-6.3 Di][ VC. | A good all-rounder (for certain values of good and all). |
| Canon 24-70/2.8L USM. | The only time that "Bricking" something is good. |
| Canon 70-200/2.8L IS USM. | (The White Whale), The Brick's big brother. |
Sigma 600/8 | The doughnut maker. |
Sigma 10-20/4-5.6 | For soul-stealing on a massive scale. |
| Sigma 1.4x EX t/c | A pity it won't fit the above dough-boy. |
| Ancillaries. |
| Tripod |
| SLIK Sprint Mini II | It struggled a bit with the 450D and the Tamron, the 50D is really taxing the friendship, but it's holding up (provided I tighten the stage to the body as though my life depends upon it (20090704 - grip added. All bets are off)). I keep it for its party-trick - 150mm off the mat. |
|
Filter |
| Hoya/Cokin/Kenko/whatever | Argue as much as you like, I'd far rather scratch a $150 UV filter than the FE of a $1500+ lense. |
| Release |
| Pixio PX-RC3 | Sometime to be re-engineered as a lightning-catcher. |
| Flash. |
| 580 EX II | Damn! but that thing's fast. |
| Juice. |
| Grip. |
| BG-E2. | At last! I'll run out of 16 GB before the batteries (with luck). |
| Batteries. | One genuine BP5-11 and one after-market jobbie. 90 OzBux for an after-market? Strewth! I'd hate to know what the genuine article costs. |
| Transport. |
| Baggage. | A couple of Lowepros... they'll do for now. |
| In case you are interested in any of this kit - without my cognisance or permisson - my address is 8 Victoria Road, Gladesville NSW 2111, OZ. Come over, let's talk. |
