I'm excited to announce a new "Pro-System" combo set for the Lightsphere system at a substantial savings.
By popular request, we've created a "Lightsphere System" package which combines a Cloud/Clear/Amberdome/Chromedome and Free Tutorial DVD for $129. (regular price for all five items is $151.95) And using the coupon code "February", you'll save an additional 10% so you'll get all five products for $116.10. This offer expires on 3/1. This item is hidden off of the e-store, you must click this special link to see the product, because it is otherwise invisible.
The coupon code also allows you to save 10% on all orders made in February for selected products from our e-store. Just enter the code, "february" (IMPORTANT- type the code exactly as it appears)... when it asks if you have a promotional code, and it will immediately take 10% off. Please do not delay in this one.
We now offer Next Day and 2nd Day Air service.
Thank you!

There is NO turning back.
I have had my full frame camera for about a week or so,
anyway last night when i went out i brought my old 350D with a 24mm lens
which i am selling very soon,
but oh man.
i couldn't stand how small the view finder is. i have always hated it,
now i look at it again, it reconfirms that indeed i don't like the viewfinder at all.
its so small that even if u are just taking pictures with people 4 feet away from u, its very hard to frame because its hard to see what is actually in the screen.

i still think u are better off if u just get a $150 or so manual film SLR.
u can probably get an 80's top professional camera probably for $100 these days
and Nikon F3 F4 the Canon F1 F1N even the 1N for much less than a DSLR.
probably can be much better off.

If I was gonna get another film camera, I'd go after an old Minolta X-700. That was my first SLR, and it's a wonderful little MF/AE body!

Interesting....the other high-end canons are rated lower than I would have thought. The S5 should match or beat the 5D, I think... The D200 is third, which means the Sony Alpha A100 would be tied with the D200, as they both share the same sensor. I wonder where my 7D would fit in.
