Long time!

Fri Apr 20, 2007, 10:41 AM
Following my last 'wide or long' post, I did neither....

I got a fisheye!

Well, a fisheye zoom to be precise. It's wicked! There's a few shots up already, I'm liking it.

Off to New York in 2 weeks and the pound just topped $2. Nice! I can feel a 70-200 Nikkor coming on. JP's gallery testifys how nice this lens is. It's only a matter of time!

I'm also down with the kids now and have a MySpace page - add me! myspace.com/gravity_slaves

Hey up Phil, its samsung from the forum... that wasnt hard to figure though lol.

Your photo's are looking nice. Do you use a remote flash on the ones in the woods, or just a dedicated flash gun?

Cheers Sam

Heyy thanks. =) Go and have look of my gallery.. i just added some new dh and freeride pics
Thanks for the fav chief... I may (key word being MAY) be looking to buy a 70-200 at the start of september - paycheque depenant!
Keyword - BUY. Sod the paycheck - get it bought and report back to me!!! Sigma or Nikon?

My budget is well and truly blown so no 70-200 for me for a while :(

Nikon 70-200 VR... thinking it'll be amazing for both gigs and biking, and I'll finally shed the lens envy that I usually have at Fort Will! Until someone pulls out some huge prime and makes my D70 look like a compact!

How's the D200 going?
D200 is truly awesome. Feels more like an Uzzi than a camera on high speed mode. Only a few 'tweaks' over the D70 but they all make a big difference in the heat of the moment. Certainlly a good upgrade, although luxury rather than needed.

I've got the 17-55 DX, the 70-200 (either VR or Sigma) would be an ideal partner as soon as I have the cash. It's hard to resist. Either that or a super-wide Sigma 10-20. Next time I'm in the States, I'll go shopping ;)
