You’ll never be done collecting lenses…
Or accessories.
Or tripods (although my fave and the only one I use now is a really cool Bogen-Manfrotto that is tha’ bomb).
Or effects filters (still fun to play with, even with all that PS can do).
Or carrying cases.
You get the point.
You’ll never be done.
[I used to collect other camera bodies too, but I stopped that mess--you then have to collect all the stuff to go along with them as well.]
It’s too addictive. ;-)

Tamra – LOL, Cousin Dee tried to warn me when I got started last year and everything she said came true. It started out fun and innocent and turned into so much more.
It’s funny you mentioned tripods! I just got a very nice new Monfrotto last week. It has mos def made a difference. I paired it with a Giatto ball head. No more cheap tripods for me!!!
Darius – I wish I ess there, looks like lots if fun! How long were you on the cruise?
This summer Suite Suzy and I are hitting the Carribean and I can’t wait.

I ordered my Prius back in the summer of 2001 when there were NO CARS IN STOCK…in NJ. I had to wait for 6 months for the car to arrive.
But, it was well worth the wait.
I LOVE my little green car (I have first generation) and it’s all paid off now, too, so it’s even more beautiful to me every day!
April is right around the corner!
Have fun in Orlando…and have a great week!

Anna C – Oh yeah, I bet it is sweet having awesome gas mileage & no note! That is a winning combo for sure. My former manager at work had to wait 7 months & did not get a choice of color. So when I told her my dilemma, she told me to get over it since I at least had some options.
Sunsail – Fuck it, just give me a 0-20mm 1.4 & all will be forever good! LOL
Smitty – Sure but you gotta pick it up>. LOL
