my bad luck spree goes on. and there is no end in sight.

today I cancelled my order at amazon.de for the canon eos 5D Mark II, because I was waiting for almost 3 weeks now, and they dont even have it in stock yet. so I went to a pretty famous german photo equipment seller called ac-photo.com and wanted to order my 5D Mark II with express delivery. I hit "instant bank transfer" and wanted to pay them straight away. unfortunately my bank account doesnt allow me to transfer more than 1000€ via online banking....... so I canceled the order and wanted to redo it. this time with prepayment. same shit in green. couldnt transfer that much money ( dont ask me why ). so to make it short, now I have to go to the bank 2morrow, transfer it manually, then propably wait 3 working days ( oh wait, we´re close to the weekend, nobody´s gonna work then ), which leads us to the conclusion that it´ll take until tuesday before they even send the lady. then I guess another 2 days until I get it.

FUCK OFF. most of my enthusiasm about getting a new camera is gone.................


Well... can't you just call the bank and authorize the transfer? Last time i bought something expensive that raised a red flag with my bank.. they emailed me and a 1 minute phone call solved it.

I bought a battery grip for my d7000. It feels like a much steadier camera. I love the extra weight and grip it adds.
I understand why some people prefer full bodies :)

Currently trying to trade away my sigma 120-400 for a tokina 11-16 on some swedish selling sites.. I'm just not happy with the sharpness with the sigma lens :P

I love how the D700 feels gripped. It's got wonderful ergonomics.

Haha, I was just showing a mate how to make a real simple focus test, I provided a photo:
Guess what? My 35 1.8 is back focusing :P
