Do I need to have any concerns in using a standard shoe mounted

The IR-POD camera mount provides wireless positioning capabilities.
Controlled by hand-held, TV-style remote, the IR-Pod is a  motorized
base that pans and tilts a camera. Set-up requires users to plug a
camera and a power cord into the unit and does not require computer.

I am looking for a good site to read reviews about lenses for a Canon
300D(Kit).
What i am looking for is a good zoom lens but cannot afford Canons L :-(

I promised to put up a shot or two taken with the Angenieux 28-70mm f/2.6
AF, well, I managed to get one up so far (I'm not the world's most
efficient webmaster!).
Here is something I took with the D70 and this lens:

I have decided to go for a 50mm f/1.7 lens with Maxxum 5. What other
lenses should I buy? I am just a beginner with hobbyist intentions
only. I prefer shooting landscapes/panorama, the occasional portrait
that I find interesting, and indoors (parties/marriages). I rarely zoom

I have a Canon EOS-1 I picked up used recently (first foray into AF).
It's working out great with a 50/1.4 prime lens and I'm very happy
with it, apart from one thing:
The AF sensor mark and the spot and partial metering circles on the

I challenge those who think their cameras are superior to my yuppie toy;
Canon Rebel 2000 *Film Camera* to a competition. Take your best shot and
let RPE35 and RPED vote on who the winner is. So that this competition
is between cameras, you must shoot at 50mm. Maybe this competition ...
