Thanks Sebastian, for pointing me to Luminous Landscape

Fabulous site. Especially the tutorial section-absolutely fantastic! Now if I can just decide on lurking here during my preciously little spare time or reading up and learning on the Luminous Landscape

open both read, learn, lurk and post .... good to see you around again!

Not doing much photography outside of work and weddings, but I still lurk on the site occasionally. How's the 1D/100-400 IS combo working? Sure do miss the speed of that camera. Maybe next year I'll pick up a 1DMkII, but lot's of things around the house to do first, pave the driveway, renovate the bathrooms, re-paint the house, etc., so the budget is spoken for. But if I get a string of great months at the office, well...Meanwhile, I'm forcing myself to maximize the somewhat limited capability of the G2. ;)

1D /100-400 has saved me $5k in film cost I went to AZ in august and returned with 13 gigs(deleted obvious junk)... that's about 100 rolls worth of ok + images at $10+each

the speed is OK, i like the flash sync and WIEGHT

G2....no no no, you shoot a 10D/70-200IS

REMEMBER.. a camera is only a tool a good hammer doesn't pound the nail
