ultimately, I love the 24-70 and 14-24, the nikon counterparts are better. I just don't have the money right now for both of those, along with a d700. Hell, I think 17-55 would be great too. I just happen to pick up the 16-85 because it came with the body for only 1829 from B&H. So I have an...

Dj mocok has a running joke of posting really bad shots in this thread. Look back on all his picture posts and you will see what I mean. However, if you check his gallery, he has some nice shots. Its real night and day.

looks like peter has 'L' fever. Also i think its unfair to compare a $400 sigma lens to $1200 'L' canon lens

nope its a 725B head/tripod combo. I plan on getting a BH-1 and Gitzo combo later down the line.

Hmm let me try going back to settings. It seems default on the forums goes to do not subscribe. *edit: got it to work! I set it to no email notification. thanks

the lite audio dac 60 is a tube dac. Have you tried rolling tubes?

the singlepower website hasn't been updated in years. There was a 'press release' of sort in the mall-fi section. However i think we lost it when head-fi crashed.

i plan on getting 50mm prime lens the cheap one for like 80 bucks and one telephoto in the $700 early 08'. I have other hobbies like head-fi where my money will be going so im not really concerned about the lastest and greatest in photography, its way down on the list.

is it worth it to spend the extra $150 bucks to get an xti over a regualar xt? i plan on keeping the body for a long time like +3 years and maybe upgrading to whatever is next up at the time like x0D body. Right now i think new a new xt can be had under $500 and the xti is like $680 with their...
