I am about to sell my 1984 Super Program with several lenes.  It
has been parked since 1987 as that year I had an serious car accident
and didn't use it much after that time.  Two lenses are unused, A 28mm
f2.8 and a 200mm f1.4.  The 50mm f1.7 is near new and the primary lens

This'll probably get Bret's knickers in a twist.  (Did I actually say
that?)
Today's NY Times (nytimes.com, for the online edition) ran a story on
Andy Warhol and the role of Edie Sedgewick as his muse.  I took screen

OK, in celebration of my just now completed replacement of a 49 Kbps dial-up
modem Internet connection (with an effective throughput of about half that)

Every now and then I feel a bit jaded and uninspired, and like to have
a go at new stuff.
I'm currently waiting on delivery of an X400 ND filter, so I can play
around with long daylight exposures (what a daredevil I am!).

Is Canon releasing a replacement to the 16-35 2.8?
Same specs but possibly different glass, blades, etc?
Any ideas?

Recenty i got 20$ as gift certificate in amazon.com. I wanted to buy
something for my nikon D50 using that gift certificate. I have
standard lens and tripod with my nikon d50
Can anyone suggest anything within 20$?

Now that so many pros have migrated to digital workflow, are clients balking
at paying film and processing costs to those professional photographers that

Do you even itemize those line items separately, or just present one

I nominate William Graham for Dirty Old Man of the Month.  Seconds?
