I'll begin with profuse apologies for the likely fallout from this
post, but here goes.
I read many people (Nikon-fans, mostly) on this forum that love to
hate on Canon's wide-angle lenses. And over time, I'd come to believe

I've never been a Kodak fan, myself, but their latest move against
competitors goes right after their crown jewels...  You know...their fat
wallets...that are filled by selling the world ink for the price of gold??
For the first time ever...I like Kodak's attitude.  :)

It was mentioned here about purchasing a camera overseas, then
bringing the item to the US.  In this case, the camera may not have
the warranty as one purchased in US.  But I question how these two
cameras (or the same brand and model) would be physically different.

I am a lawyer investigating claims that some companies conspired to
fix the price of flash memory used in digital cameras.  I am
particularly interested in talking to people who purchased flash
memory from www.crucal.com.

I've just posted an article about the pros and cons of shooting JPEG
versus RAW files. Everyone seems to know there are many different
kinds of digital files, the two versions above included. Anyway, I've
been getting a lot of questions lately asking me to define the

Hi, I'm in India, I need to transfer photos to a portable HD to take
home..
I installed sw that comes w/camera, tranferred photos from camera to
computer, but can't find how to transfer photos from cmoputer to

I'm considering purchasing a prime 28mm lens as a "normal" lens for my
D200, thus yielding a similar angle of view to a 42mm lens on a 35mm
camera. The most obvious choice is the Nikon 28mm f/2.8 D AF. Anyone
here doing this? Any comments about such a setup? Any comments on my

If you're like me, you've grown your kit to the point where it is
unreasonable to carry it around. Four or five lenses just don't travel
well, and any bag or case that will hold them certainly allows one to
do so at the cost of allowing any of it to be readily-available. Lens

I you a Rebel XT, and I wish to connect Strobes with a PC sync cord.  Which
safe sync do I need?  A Wein SSHSHS (hot shoe to hot shoe high voltage) or a
HSHSB (hot shoe to hot shoe safe sync) I'm not sure what the difference is.
My Smith Victor strobes are supposed to be around ...

Do you know any possibilities for using extension tubes for
macrophotography for Canon 17-85 mm? If there are no such, could you
please give me, if you know, any offers for zoom macro lenses (from
wide angel to tele) compatible for Canon 20D with low f/, for a lower

"-optimized to provide optical resolution for the 5-micron pixel size
of the 12k line scan cameras."
These lenses did not look cheap, though I don't know what their actual
price is.  I imagine very high since 12k

It's true!  Only Canon lenses can be this versatile in such demanding
situations.  I realize now that the Nikkors simply couldn't hold up under
the pressure.  Had I known how good L glass is I would have never bought
Nikkors.

From a respected source, if not always spot on...

Never before have I had such accurate, fast, and hunt-free focus.  This lens
gets me the shots I need in exactly when I need them without turning other
lights on just so that I can focus in low light.  I now see why Canons need
Canon lenses.  Granted, they probably cripple the ...
