Photography equipment thread

so for all u shutter heads

heres my setup..nothing fancy, gets the job done..

Canon 400D
17-85mm f4-f5.6 IS
18-55mm f3.5-5.6 kit lens

coming is
TOKINA ATX 10-17 FISHEYE

for the future
70-200mm F4 IS

the range on that zoom lens is secks
too bad..cnat afford the f2.8 ver

I want a SLR .____.

Just like turntablism, photography is one of those hobbies I'd love to try out but not want to invest in the equipment to do so.

my setup so far has me spending close to 1000cad
so its not too bad

like even the kit lens can do the banner pic + more!
its just that car photography sometimes requires a bit more such has a lighting setup for the best results
daytime, with what i have, is more than enuff

where do u take photography? i was checking about a.i. photography courses and its like in seattle or something, but its a long way ahead so i didn't really look deep

I'm just a slight "power user" as darthchilli likes to put it.

I have a Canon G9, but I use it for decent shots. It's basically a super high-end point and shoot (not factoring the sigma DP1)

D700 eh..
i would like to play

D700 belongs to my dad, i don't know much about it but neither does he since its still pretty new lol
im in hk right now for vacation and my dad stays in hk, but if i have a chance to bring it to vancouver, you could play with it lol
but chances of bringing it to van is pretty slim, but i'll bring a D300 back to vancouver

yeeeee, i got my D300 now, bought a vertical grip, and got a lensbaby! lensbabies has been the most photography fun i've EVER had!

try lomography
u'll love it
i have a holga..uses 120mm medium format film
takes the trippiest shit ever!

oh shit thats sweet! well i thought about getting a fisheye but then after trying lensbaby, im addicted lol

I need to find something that will fit the attachment ring on my G9... anyone know what fits this puny hole?
