Re: What do you use?

Pentax *ist DL with an 18-55mm (wide) lense

Considering either buying a telephoto lense or chopping it in and getting a new body/wide/tele pack from one of the big boys

Government is doing some 30% tax rebate for small business purchases over $1k so I might just sell the Pentax

Re: Moomba 2009

should we bring up the calender idea again? Don't vote, just do it - democracy is for sissys Seriously though, I'm sure there are solutions out there on the internets that allow you to sell a product and have it made when it's ordered (CafePress for one) - perhaps do that and see what volume of ord...

Re: 2009 Royal Canberra Show (Review and Photos added)

I don't think Mondial would have put it on there if it did nothing On the converse, I couldn't see a fan being a critical element to the operation of a multi-ton amusement ride.
