My new toy/s
SWMBO gave me free reign to buy some camera gear in return for setting up her dog runs and other chores around the new property.
So this is what I bought.....................
Attachment 179393
Canon EOS 7D (body only) with extra battery and 16Gig CF card $1665
Extra battery $67
Sigma 17-70 Macro $429
Tamron 70-200 Macro $786
Manfrotto 190XPROB Tripod $173
Manfrotto 498RC2 midi ball head $121
Nearly bought the 5D MkII, but with the money I saved I paid for the lenses, and I can always borrow my son's MkI if I need to go full frame.To grow old is inevitable.... To grow up is optional

Nice
I'm trying to convince the chancellor at the moment that the household needs the 7D (the 60D seems a bit plasticky)
From whom did you purchase?regards

From here.
Don't believe the 1-2 day shipping time, from order to delivery was 15 days. They're prompt at answering emails and you can contact them by phone and you always get a reference number to quote. When the goods are shipped (by FedEx) they give you the tracking number so you can check the progress.To grow old is inevitable.... To grow up is optional

Very nice GJ. I like the look of that Tamron lens. Is F2.8 on the 200mm the norm with small tele lenses nowdays? I haven't looked at specs on photographic equipment for a very long time
Those were the droids I was looking for.

Congratulations Nick, what lense/s are you using. Be careful when inserting the CF card, DAMHIKT .

John
I hope you didn't do any damage with the CFcard.
I'm moving up from a 20D so keeping the lenses (or rather fighting No 1 son for the use of them)
I've a Canon 17 - 85 which lives on the camera most of the time this one
I've also a Canon 70 - 300 DO IS which I mainly use for sport. this one
The 7D is very similar but just enough changes to keep me on my toes
I am suitably impressed with it.I'm to yet seriously try the movie option, seems pretty easy to use. Yep I'm one happy little vegemiteregards
