    One last camera question about lenses..

    also i would suggest buying a higher end slightly used lens to a brand new lower end model. that's what i've done, from www.keh.com where the prices good, the condition of used goods often much better than they rate.

    One last camera question about lenses..

    is there a reason you are sticking to Canon lenses only? Surely, in that range, there are options from Sigma/Tamron that might meet (or beat) whatever requirements you have. if you need range, the 55-200 is the way to go, instead of having overlapping range. find a local store, or chain like...

    The Fountain Pen owners thread!

    mags, sounds like the paper that is not suitable, not the ink. but you could try Aurora's inks, italian, about 7 dollars a bottle, black and blue only. the blue is absolutely gorgeous--what I use.

    Grado Headphones

    i keep hearing rumours that the SR60 is the only one really suitable for use 'as is', and that the rest of the grado's really shine when hooked to an amp.. even though the entire RS line has the same impedance (at least up through the SR225 for sure). How is that? also, my soundcard (SB Live)...

    fc, sorry for not being clear; since you have a collection of SMs, i said i like the AC version best of all the SM variations. i'm guessing the bracelet is the auto, the strap is the quartz version of the "bond" SM?

    Anybody seen a Kershaw Mini Mojo yet?

    what is a liner lock? my kershaw (sorry can't recall the model, it should be in sig) has the left part (if blade up and tip pointing away from body) of the handle split into to sections, one of which snaps behind the blade as it opens. it gets plenty of pocket crud, so if it is liner lock i'll...

    What's the Best Cell Phone Company?

    Re: What\'s the Best Cell Phone Company? i think why sprint pcs gets drops is because of the wavelength they use, 1900mhz (primarily, digital roam is 800). when it works, it is great, but short w/l means less likely to be able to punch through structures. Verizon works on 800 I think. GSM has...
