Has anyone used these before or does anyone know of any alternatives to the Kozee Rangers? I've been looking around at custom earplugs and these are the only ones that boost the human voice while removing noise that I can find. Are there any others? Are these good? Do they work as advertised?

Just took a double take at the ones you had mentioned joe. I noticed that they are not approved as a hearing protection device. Yikes.   

Doesn't seem like any of these have what I'm looking for so I am back to just looking for earplugs that are ideal for me. I just saw that kozee made some earplugs called rangers. They appear to eliminate everything, but the human voice. Has anyone tried these because that would be awesome if it...

Quote: Just what I was looking for. Maybe I'll get lucky and find some for the shure's  

Let me clear up what I'm looking for. I would like something that I cam use as custom molds for my se-310s and them take out the se310s and use the molds with a filtered ear plug for work.

Guess I should clarify. I'm using Shure SE310s and I need something for industrial ear protection

Does anyone offer one custom mold that can work with both IEMs and ear plugs?

I think that will change depending on scene from what I have seen Artizen. I generally adjust the compensation based on shot. Look at the histograph and adjust ABSOLUTELY NEVER ADJUST BASED ON THE LCD'S APPEARANCE

I like your third one. First one is over sharpened. Second is a bit soft and blah. Third one is a great capture. The thing with a built in flash is its very limited.

I shoot mostly manual. The d50 does have it beat in high iso performance, but I sitll think the d70 image come out much better quality wise.

Martook. I wouldn't say everything is faster with a DSLR, look at the fujifilm stuff. Extremely slow, but a lot of people rank them high. Also Speed is highly dependent on the card being used.

On a note about your d40 pictures. The nikon 80-200 is not AF-s so it won't auto focus on the camera. The 200mm is a rediculously expensive lens if you are using the f2 one which I believe you are. So for budget he would be killing himself to get the lenses you have when he could do the same...

I'd recommend a d1x or d1h over the d40 he simply won't buy used. D3 is a ridiculous comment cause no one really needs that. Honestly I wound sooner recommend a Canon Powershot S5 IS digital camera Then that camera. The Lack of an AF internally is just a huge downfall.
