Im getting the Spyder 4 Pro asap, that wont be at tax time so it doesnt need to be taken out.

Over, Id like to get a zoom, but if theres room Id like to get a fixed too (but if I do, it will be the 85mm 1.8 or the rokinon 85mm 1.4).

I so want a white lens, haha. It must be the girl in me, I just squee over them.


Okay it's a start!

I honestly think you will use 85mm and under a lot more than a long tele zoom!

(don't get a MF lens, period :P )

That would leave us a lot of money to do other stuff..just makes me super sad D: I adore the 70-200..I seriously think I would use it all the time, weight notwithstanding.

By the way, I have a question about the spyder. If I calibrate this monitor now, it wont be an issue to calibrate a new monitor later right?

The 70-200 is seriously heavy. Even more if your 5d is gripped!

You can calibrate as many times as you want and as many monitors as you want :)

haha well, you can, you get double the battery life and vertical grip.. Not really worth it if your camera isn't a workhorse.

Is BBF something people request in the private classifieds on craigslist... ? ha

I don't know what that is?

Thats the same thing? Ffffffffff. I guess it just sounded easier than how you explained it, haha. I tried it and it seemed so much more difficult.

Im gonna try to stick with it a bit longer this time. I watched a youtube thing on it so I understand a little better now. I guess I just dont get why its supposed to be so helpful, but I guess that will come in time.

And Im super sadface, that monitor is on sale for $399 D:
